Another One Bytes the Dust

THEY ARE AMONG the only products we receive (sometimes at great expense) and immediately gush over them, embrace them and show them off to friends or even strangers. A year later, we decide the models we have are antiquated and toss them in the trash. Then, without blinking, we reach into our pockets for a couple hundred bucks to replace the outdated accessory with something faster, smarter, sexier and with more blinking bells and whistles, which we adore for about a year before repeating the cycle once again.
