We had them for 7 months last year. What a nuisance! Dad never did figure out how to work him, and we had teh walkie talkie kind. Didn't matter, he was still out of reach. Sigh. I used it a bit for the work we were doing during that 7 months, but I hated it the whole time. I could never figure out most of the features, and if something was pressed, then I couldn't even get calls or messages. I spent more time with the darn manual.

I was quite glad when we didn't need them any more and I could get rid of them. I hope never to need them again. What an awful experience, and quite expensive as well! And no, we never used up our monthly minute allotment, so that wasn't the issue.

I only have a cell phone, giving up my house phone months ago. I ponder the age at which Jones will get his first phone! Even though he is a boy, and *might* not be as phone oriented as a girl, I don't want to answer all his phone calls...he he he.

LOL! I have two sons, let me tell you those boys talk on the phone as much as the girls do at times, if not more.

Our phone used to ring off the hook it was always calls for the boys. It was crazy. Now that there both grown and gone I miss it at times. They grow up way to fast. "Sigh"

I think he will be a gabber, as already, at nearly 3, he wants to call and talk to someone. LOL...I am trying to teach him to speed dial my mom...but, he just pushes the buttons randomly.

Yes I have a Cell phone. I got it for when my hubby worked out of town, so we could always get ahold of eachother. It has been a life saver when the kids are at school. It is usually the only way the schools can get ahold of me. I cannot imagine my life without one. I rarely use it tho, mostly people call me, I rarely use it to call anyone.

He'll get that speed dail down before you know it. Kids are so much fun at three, that was my favorite age! I've gone totally off topic in this thread sorry.
