Ah, Gary. There you go, inferring what wasn't said. I tell you how I
use mine when you're putting me down for using a smart phone. You
still can't comprehend that it's my only phone. I don't have a
landline and I don't pay for an internet phone.

I wasn't criticizing - just dishing it back in a similar fashion. If
she can't take the heat, then she should get out of the kitchen.

I hate Skype, probably because I just want voice. I know it's an
option, but people who use Skype expect video.

You also said that you were not going to use any feature that a
working smartphone would have. If it's crippled back to flip-phone
capabilities, there's absolutely no point in updating. Save your
money. Your only reason to update is so you won't *look* so backward.

I wasn't looking for a thank you. I took offence at the assumptions
being made about cell phone users. I have one. It has functions
that I use because they are convenient. I don't always have paper and
pencil around and probably will not get to paper and pencil for a
while. I can quickly dictate a note to myself or add something to the
shopping list that chances are I would forget otherwise. Because my
cell is small, I carry it in my pocket. If I'm out for a walk, I can
call someone if I need help of some sort. My cell makes it possible
to listen to music to pass the time when I'm walking (walking is
something I hate, BTW) If I'm driving and need a tow or the police, I
have my cell. I was in a garden center last week and needed to make
some calculations and conversions, my cell provided conversion charts
and a calculator. I'm not saying everyone should/must have a cell
phone. It's damn convenient. I used to travel with a tape measure,
calculator and pocket dictator in my purse, plus my paper shopping
list. So did thousands of people. It's not necessary any longer.
Sure I can take and send pictures with it (how handy is that if you
are involved in a car accident?)
I say if you want to get one just to use for the functions and make no
calls or texts, go for it. It may come in handy. I wouldn't go for a
low, low end model. In my opinion they are not at all user friendly.
I went that route and was sorry I did. I have always used Tracfone so
I don't know how other providers operate. But, Tracfone provides
online user manuals for each phone they sell. You can also get real
people help. In choosing a phone and service provider, I would want
to have help available. The program I use wants me to add some
minimal minutes every once in awhile. I hardly ever use them because
I am generally working off WiFi. My minutes accumulate and carry
over, I never lose them. My annual cost about $8.25/month.

As far as smart phones go - grow up. I'm not one of your brothers, so
don't play those childish games with me. It's obvious that you are
very thin skinned: don't snipe at me (or smart phone users in general)
and I won't shovel it right back at you in kind.

You're saying that cell phone users have them "glued to their ears" is
disinterest? I need to write that one down.
