Just wondering .... does it really matter that the OP lent his phone to someone? I don't see a need to beat him up over it, he probably had his reasons. He trusted and got burned which we *all* do in some way, shape or form sometime(s) in our lives. The issue is that his phone is broke, doesn't really matter *how* or *who* broke it, does it? I'm sorry to criticize but I've seen so much of this kind of response around the boards of late -- at least in my opinion. When someone is asking for help and other people don't really understand why the person would do what they did or wouldn't do themselves what the person did that got them to the point they need help, the point is to help - not bash them for their misfortune -- isn't it?
