   Hi Hemidactylus,   
      
   When you need FM and you don't have it, that's when you're going to care.   
      
   Besides, the adult point I was making to Jolly Roger, because I understand   
   him, is that he *feels courageous* owning a phone missing basic features.   
      
     Owning nothing makes Jolly Roger feel "special" to be able to say...   
      
       *I bought an iPhone that was missing the most basic functionality*   
                *And I feel _courageous_ about doing that*   
      
   The question is _why_ does Jolly Roger feel so "courageous" about that.   
   Do you know why?   
      
   I do.
