Now that I've Replaced It...

...I'm left with the following question:

What do you do with a broken cell phone?
What do you do with a broken cell phone?
What do you do with a broken cell phone
Earl-eye in the morning?


(oh, and in searching for "silly" in the picklist, I find that once I used "spaghetti" as a mood descriptor.)


ETA: Thanks to everyone who made serious suggestions, but I was actually more thinking sea chanties than I was thinking practical solutions. I'm already pretty sure I'm donating it to somewhere that fixes them or mines them for parts and then donates them.

Many domestic violence organization accept old cell phones for donation. Given that your phone was still functional, it would probably be useful to these organizations. They are usually refurbished and given to women who need the additional line of contact to get out of an abusive situation or start a new life. You can get a mailing label to donate your phone here. http://www.ncadv.org/takeaction/DonateaPhone_129.html

Yeah, we've donated past phones to various women's organizations. But because of how this one broke, I wouldn't want it to do the same thing in case of an emergency. My parents said something about a program through their police station, where the police take the phones, have them fixed and refurbished, and then given to the battered women's shelters, so I may do that.
