    In theory: Palm 755p for 1.5 years. In practice: several different 755p’s during this time frame due to faulty hardware (and one lost – that one was my bad! Thanks, Assurion!)

    But wait a minute – I gave my old 650 Treo to my wife – so that PDA has been in continuous use for a total of 3.5 years.

    I’ve used my 3g iPhone since it’s launch date, albeit with occasional use of a second device. Not that long I guess, but doing quite well for me!

    Well I got my iPhone in July, so that’s around seven months, but I still occasionally use my Universal so that’s three years old…

    Up until drowning it about two months ago (in her pocket in a rainstorm) my wife was still using my old HTC S620 (what a good smartphone that was… should really mourn its passing!)

    iPhone 3G since launch (just about). If there are significant hardware improvements in June (better camera etc.) I’ll upgrade.

    I’ve used my BB Curve 8900 since I got it in December.

    Prior to that I had a BB Bold for about 4 months, but lost it in the snow.

    Prior to that I had a BB Curve for about 4 months, that a co-worker wanted.

    Prior to that I was using a Treo 680 for about a year.

    Prior to that I had a Treo 650 for a year.

    Prior to that was a record breaking 2 years that Oused a Tungsten T3.

    Only PDA I’ve used longer was my Newton MP120, which I used for almost 3 years.

    Some say I have committment issues….
