In a predicament about getting my FIRST Android device.

I currently have a Blackberry Bold 9700 that I got last July. I was planning to get the Nexus One but I didn't like having all screen and no physical keypad. I was hooked on the Nexus though, stupid of me not to get it. Now there is a Nexus S, and I love it also. Its the only android device that I seem to be attracted to. Here's the issue. I bought the Blackberry with my OWN money, but my parents pay the monthly bills. I am going to buy this phone with my own money, and going to get a job to pay for my own bill. I want to show my parents I'm independent, I haven't asked them for anything in 2yrs, everything I want I buy with my own money that I work for in the summer. My parents don't want me to get this phone because they want me to get it in the summer before college. They believe that a phone is a phone, and a I'm wasting my money because every phone is the same. I keep telling them I have the money and I want to buy it and pay the bills, thing is, its under their name, so they refuse to.

Should I wait, or try to continue my efforts to let me buy it?

If I wait I may have to wait till September because I'm going to France.
 
Unfortunately if you live in your parents house, you live by their rules. If they dont want you to get a new phone, listen to them. Get a new one when you move out, there will be plenty of cooler newer phones out by then.

Exactly its not like phone technology is moving backward, just wait and get what you want when you move out if you please.
