Is having the latest technology a want or a need?
How often do you get a new cel phone or mp3 player? Did you really need a new model? Do you consider the environmental impact of these purchases? If you are addicted, how can you break your addiction?

Technological wants and needs
I don't really care about having the latest model, I just scared that i have a functioning phone. I don't usually get new pieces of technology often. I only got my phone because my last one completely shattered. I don't usually consider the environmental impact these purchases make, even though I should. I think addictions depend on how long a person has been using their device. The more someone becomes accustomed to using their device, the harder it is to let go. Therefore it is important to control the amount of time one spends on their phone or computer so that addiction doesn't end up controlling their life,
