What kind of phone do you own?

I always keep the cheapest Nokia I can as long as I can (they usually last 2-5 years).  I have to say I hate complicated phones and like the simplicity of the cheap Nokia (they also usually have a little flashlight function that I prize).

Here we just buy the phone (maybe $30 for a cheap Nokia), and the phone number - another $1.50 or $3, and then just pay for the minutes by buying refill codes at 7-11.  I love it, can't believe americans have to commit and all that nonsense.

Some of us do it because its cheaper, some do it to improve our credit score, but the rest of us do it because you touch yourself at night.

I thought you had no choice?

My phone is so terrible it:

1. Has no camera
2. Does not offer any suggestions in T9word mode, just goes with its first guess automatically

I don't expect anyone can beat me on that (except maybe the olds without cell phones)

My phone also has no camera, and my whatever you call it text thingy (its a 'T9word mode'??) also just goes to the first guess, and then you just have to push a button to make it go through the other options.

I doubt there is any person on this forum, however old, who has no mobile phone.  I resisted until about 2001, but that's it.
