Victim:
Stein256 of Kanagawa Prefecture

Scene of Accident:
On my bike

Broken Item:
NTT DoCoMo F505i

Details of Accident:
I was hit by a car coming out of a parking lot, while o­n the way to go shopping by bike. The other party wasn't watching where they were going. When I was hit, the cell phone that was in my right breast pocket got caught between my body and the ground. After the medical treatment was over, I went to make a call, and noticed that the screen was broken.

More from the Contributor:
The other party fully compensated me, and I had the phone's data backed up o­nto the memory card.

More from the Contributor:
There's really no financial problem because I was compensated, but since the specifications are the same, I changed to the F506i. I was thinking about changing to FOMA with this winter's bonus, but beause I changed now, changing again so quickly would cause the equipment cost to go up. I think I'll wait another 6 months.
