Re: OT: cell phones

Thanks Donna... but isn't that counterintuitive? Press stop to go, end to start, that sort of thing?

Can't help you Theresa, mine is a plain jane phone call one which I have had 
for a couple of years.

When I had a business cell phone, it was aggrivating.  Someone always
calling. The one I have now is fine and can keep me in touch with friends and family. I didn't port the number when I switched companies, so....I also took the long distance off my home phone since long distance is free with the cell 
phone.
They are great in emergency situations and everyone should have one for that. 
IMHO

Me too. I've got a cell phone but never use it. Can't ever remember how to turn the damn thing on. Got it for the trip out here and used it twice, I 
think, to call my sister and let her know when to expect me.

I'm with you there, Kitty.  I think it's frightfully annoying to

have

someone's
phone go off in the middle of a meeting, or when you're talking to

them.  And
seeing people walk down the street, or worse, drive down the highway at great speed, talking on the things just makes me furious. And if you can 
hear them talking, often they are just saying something like "well,

I'm

walking down the street in front of the book store."
I do own one of the simplest sort that I keep in my handbag in case I
have trouble on the highway, but I have only used it a couple of times 
in the more than a year I've had it.  Don't keep it turned on, and

haven't

given the number to anyone.  I try to remember to keep it charged.
Guess I'm just a Luddite, or blame it on old age.
