@ChaseandZahrasmom:
Do you have the insurance on your phone? I know that I have washed a cell phone, drop one out of my Jeep while driving (it was a Wrangler and the windows were off, it slid off of the dashboard, very slow motion when it happened), my hubby has dropped one in the toilet, etc and we had the insurance and only had to pay $50 to replace it.
Maybe Fender wants his own phone and that is his way of telling you he would like one that isn't a flip phone so it would be eaiser for him to use.
I unknowingly dropped my phone in a parking lot, drove over it, and didn't realized where I had lost it for two days:eek: I went back, when I realized, and there it was! It actually lasted for another year!
