Well, not exactly. After dropping it several times over 2+ years, even my protective case could not save it this time. It fell out of my pocket while working and instead of falling at an angle like it usually does, it fell straight down on concrete shattering the screen. To my surprise, the phone is still working but it is almost impossible to read text messages, e-mails, use my address book to find phone numbers, etc.
So, my questions to you...
1) Can I deduct the cost for a new phone on my taxes?
2) Should I stick with Android or switch over to the trendy iPhone? Does it really matter for mystery shopping?
P.S. I am out of contract with AT&T so I am a free agent. I do have insurance on the phone but with a $125.00 deductible and they choose what phone to replace it with.
Finally, funeral services for my Android will be held on April 1, 2013.
