I use about 20 minutes a year.
My outgoing message is "Don't bother leaving a message, I never check
them. Call me at home".
90% of the time my cell is on a shelf in the closet.
As I said, I only take it when I travel.
I'm right the opposite, I don't have a home phone, have no need for one.
I'm shocked, shocked I say. You are the opposite of me on something
;-)
If I was working I would have a smart phone with me all the time. I
just don't have a need for it now.
In fact we had a cell network connected portable terminal in 1985 that
was basically a blackberry in a bigger box. I carried it with me most
of the time and wondered how I would live without it when I retired. I
went as far as buying a PDA. I never used it.
My wife keeps asking me why I don't want a smart phone. I tell her it
is like having a back hoe. Great thing if you need one but I don't
need one.
my car gps died, so i went with smart phone. very nice when traveling
for googling up local places and info.
Absolutly... we use it all the time...."Find Dunkin donuts along
route"... "Is it going to rain in Minot Maine Sunday?" "Text message to:
***** "looking for you at the fair, where are you guys?"
