I use filters on the newsgroups instead of a shovel!

BTW, I also updated my old 6s Plus but it can't get iOS 18.4 
unfortunately. Oddly, the 6s Plus is at 96% battery while my 11 is at 
88%. I just ordered a free SIM card from Helium for the 6s Plus, even 
though T-Mobile coverage in my area is marginal.

Probably will get an iPhone 17 if the standard model includes a 120Hz 
ProMotion display. But now it depends on the pricing and if Apple 
absorbs the tariffs by lowering their margins, or if they try to raise 
prices to keep the margins the same.
