Not yet. I've been stalling forever but I do need to find a good deal
for one now. (no Uber or Lyft without one). They sound cheaper than a taxi.

Maybe one of those QVC deals...phone and 1000 minutes for about $100.
I'd still have to keep my landline with that though. (now $45 per month).

What I'd like to find is a decent smartphone with:
- unlimited talk (or at least 600-700 minutes per month)
- not interested in text although that might be important too
- a little bit of data time (using apps)

The unlimited talk is all my mother's fault. She doesn't like email.
Likes to talk each week for a couple of hours so I do that for her.
