I'm walking into spiderwebs

I need a new phone- and the one I like costs $1000
yes 1000 U.S. dollars.
for some un-godly reason
thats a months rent! (in my crappy studio, in dubai the land of everything expensive)

and lets not pretend that I would know how to attempt to take advantage of all its expensive features.
its just pretty.

why can't they make pretty ones that ring, and you answer, and they cost 10 dirhams?
