what does it matter about a phone aslong as you can talk on it?

are phones the new car then? "yeah my car has an 8 gigamondo sooped up engine with 9 valve turbo falangies and 85 inch wheels"
"yeah but all you do is drive it to the factory and back every day in bumper to bumper traffic...and you have no friends"
there's a need for your phone to stay functional past a year. my samsung phone died after a year, with a year before i get a new one (verizon does that new every 2 thing, and i really can't afford a new phone every year). the screen stopped lighting up so i could make calls but couldn't see who i was calling (unless i had the number memorized) or texting. i wound up trashing that phone and started using my sister's boyfriend's old phone but now the 4 and 7 keys don't really work.

for me, having a cell phone is pretty practical, and not a show-off game. i do a lot of driving and it's nice knowing that i can make a phone call if my car breaks down or if i get lost (which is often). i've even made a few good samaritan phone calls for cars stuck on the side of the road or accidents. cell phones are NOT inherently bad.

My cell phone is my only means of communication, and I keep cell phones for at least two years. So I need one that's not going to be broken and obsolete in 2008 (like mine is now).

First, I love the "prowler" color.

Second, not all razrs suck, i've had many for almost a year and the only reason im wanting a different phone is im tired of a flip phone.

Third, I need to make my christmas list...

I carried a pre-paid virgin cheap phone that I never kept on me until recently.

Now I carry a blackberry because of work. It still scares the shit out of me when it vibrates.

"Whoa! What's that!!"

i think my phone's more like a 21st century swiss army knife, i regularly use it for phonecalls, text messaging,mp3 player, fm radio, camera, video camera, playing games, calculator, calendar, internet access and as a voice recorder. saves carrying around a multitude of gadgets.
