That is a very difficult question to answer without some additional information. 
Do you like your current driver?
Is the head in good shape?
How/why did the shaft break?
Were you fit for your current driver? Does it still fit you?

Over all I'm a fan of shiny things, so I always like new clubs.

Having said that, you can normally get replacement shafts for drivers relatively inexpensively on ebay these days.

Yes

Yes

I have no idea why it broke.  It broke at the handle, was a clean strike and everything,.

Were you fit for your current driver? Does it still fit you?

I got a static fitting, not dynamic. Don't know, but worth investigating

I would never dissuade somebody from buying a new "shiny thing". But if it were me, I'd probably replace the shaft. I'm assuming your driver has an adjustable neck. Which means the shaft is likely out there on Ebay someplace.
