Oh, god.
That's about how I felt when I got one. I've been considering getting a new one - mine's incredibly boring - but I rarely use it anyway, and those things are freaking expensive especially if you don't want a contract (and I do NOT want a contract thank you).

I pretty much never give out my number though.

Hey at least you're not one of the early buyers of the iPhone. Heck, if Steve Jobs is having to give out 100 bucks credit to the online Apple Store for the early buyers when the model dropped 200 dollars the other day (along with iPods all dropping 50) you know you got locked into something bad.

At least with a cheap-o, you don't have to worry about something like that.

How did that happen?

I have a phone... it's a rather cheap model, outdated by a few years, the front screen dented from a drop onto subway tracks, but it's fine...Actually, yours looks like it would be an upgrade compared to mine

It's not like September 9th was important anyway

I don't have a cell phone and I doubt I'll be getting one anytime soon. I don't make enough calls to need one anyway.

Average phone calls made a day = 0.2

Average time talking to people on the computer through IM per day = 2 Hours+

I didn't notice anything wrong with that picture until I reread it after what Imajin said and I just started laughing out loud. I used to have a phone that lagged. What would happen was, if you opened it, closed it, opened it, closed it over and over and ~ really fast on the last open it would darken the screen (For the close), brighten the screen (For the open), darken the screen (For another close), and so on and so on. It was fun.

I have a cell phone. I hate it and I hate using it. The only reason I got it was because my mom got it for me in case of an emergency last year. I keep it off most of the time. It's really more of a paperweight I keep with me.


The only time I ever use it is when my mom calls or I need something.

Probably the #1 reason I don't buy a new cell phone: They all have cameras with much lower picture quality than the actual camera (6MP) I carry with me.

Other reasons:
-Phones are bloody expensive.
-I'd also need to buy a multi-gigabyte MicroSD card, since Compact Flash is out of date.
-Having a phone with a nice camera, music player, notepad, etc would pretty much replace my DS and camera, which would actually be annoying because then I'd have no use for these expensive devices.
-Fear that the software won't support multitasking very well. I need to be able to play music on it and have it pause when a call comes in, and be able to use the camera, notepad, calculator, image/text viewer etc at the same time as I'm playing music or making a call.
-For that matter, I just plain hate the way most phone software I've seen works. iPhone, from what little I've seen of it, looks like it got a few things right that everyone else tends to get wrong, but I don't want an iPhone (even if I were able to unlock it). It's expensive and it probably shares many of the iPod's problems (easily scratched, non-replaceable battery, etc). Specifically, the way phones tend to manage your contact list just sucks. >:[

So yeah. The iPhone looks to be the closest to what I want, but it's still a long ways off, mainly in terms of price and me not really needing a new phone that badly. (Also, I want a flip phone, I'm sick of the buttons getting pressed in my pocket. >8^( )

I'll pick though the ones I can:

Originally posted by HyperHacker

Just get my phone

-Having a phone with a nice camera, music player, notepad, etc would pretty much replace my DS and camera, which would actually be annoying because then I'd have no use for these expensive devices.
So just get one that makes calls (again, mine)

-Fear that the software won't support multitasking very well. I need to be able to play music on it and have it pause when a call comes in, and be able to use the camera, notepad, calculator, image/text viewer etc at the same time as I'm playing music or making a call.
This one's pretty valid, but even then, just use something else for the music

Specifically, the way phones tend to manage your contact list just sucks. >:[
Mine's got a nice contact list; relatively useful (easily make new entries, just name/phone number(/type)/email/group/ringtone... mmy only problem with it is that there's no way to sort by group, so the "Family/Friend/Business/School" selection is useless (I haven't seen it used *anywhere* except on the contact list editor)...

Yep, that'd be why I have such a basic one now. I can't see a model number on it, it's a Nokia of some sort. (Notice I said reasons I don't buy a new phone. )
