    It seems I hate trying to buy a mobile phone at the stores because the sales people want to attach 1001 acessories to the order and then making the order unaffordable.

    That's why I generally only get a new phone when I absolutely must, and ask them, "what's the cheapest 'upgrade' I can get.

    making the order unaffordable.

    Sounds like what they do for amateur radio gear. <G>
