      Back in the day, I was using friendster (a now defunct social network)using opera mini 2.06 thru GPRS, installed sis/jar apps and played GBA/SNES/GENESIS games on my Nokia 3230 and people around me laughed at me for trying so hard.

      Today, they flaunt their $500+ quad/octa core, 2-3gb RAM'd phones with samoled, LTE and all they do is FB, angry birds and candy crush and ask me questions about their phones, the answer which can be found had they tried to use their phones' search engine. DUH.

                  Its time to go the flagship smarpthone prices down. China makes similar phones with just 25-30% of the well known brand phone prices. This means they are making more than 50% profit which is too much and a big bang into everyone's pocket
