Dear Reader,<\/p>\n

How do you decide when it’s time for a new phone? I’m pretty good at not getting distracted by the latest shiny, new things, but lately my three-year old Samsung Galaxy S6 has gotten very sluggish. And it’s starting to annoy me. So, I’m thinking a new phone is in my future. I’m sticking with Samsung, as I’ve been very happy with my last two Galaxies. This time I will look at the Note 9, and the Galaxies S9 and S9+. What do you think? <\/p>\n

\tSee ya on the Net,
