My Parents are turning geeks

Yes, you read it right. Dunno what got into my parents after they retired and they are buying techie gizmos for themselves. My mother now sports a LG Cookie that I was salivating as soon it hit the Philippine market. I was taken by surprise when I found it accidentally in her bag during one of her check ups. I quickly asked her a string of questions. "When did you got this? Why did you buy one and do you know how to use it?"

I was really shocked because my mother always prefer simplicity on mobile phones - If she's able to call and send text messages it's good for her. Whereas I am the techie in the family and now all I have is a old SE phone. How ironic. Hahaha.

As for my father, he recently bought a laptop, nut just an entry level netbook but a full size laptop. I haven't seen it yet as it still with my sister and I do not plan of borrowing it as my parents already declared that it will never leave the house. There goes the mobility function of a lappy.
