    We all have to make difficult life decisions from time to time. Some work out, some we live to regret bitterly.

    Consider:
    iPod: Average life span: Two to three years.
    Cell phone: Average life span: Four years.
    Kilt: Average life span: your lifetime, then some.

    I know which is the better investment!

    You forgot to factor in the percentage of use of each item. I use my phone everyday; currently it's a good week if I can go kilted only seven days since the last wearing.
