Now that's a good smart phone! Almost no one has my cell phone number.
(Someone else gave it to some people, but I have only given it to
entities like doctors [for callbacks], my daughter's schools [in case of
emergency], my daughter, not many more people.) I don't like people
calling me on the cell phone. For that matter, my dislike for phone
calls in general is only slightly less than it is for the cell phone.

Text messages and emails are nice and quiet and wait until you feel like
tackling them.
