    I'm another one of the old fogies. I have a TracFone (pre-paid cell phone) for out-of-town use, backup, and emergencies. It doesn't do pictures or texting (as far as I know, anyway).
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    That's what I have too - and just a basic phone. I buy the one year card - it's easier and I don't forget that way. I'm due to have to buy again in June which will give me another 400 minutes - and I still have 710 minutes that I haven't used yet. You can tell how often I (don't) "use" it. It's cheaper for me than having a contract tho.

    I have a cell phone that rides on my daughter's plan. I never text, and probably use it for calls ten times a month, even though I carry it everywhere.

    After two years I still have to concentrate to retrieve messages. In fact, I had to put the directions on the back of my phone.

    I don't have a lot of friends that I want to talk with, and those I do I can call on my land line. Non-Verizon calls cost on the cell so all business calls are done on the land line (or from work).

    I don't have internet at home either. Too much to do to spend my time on the computer. I can do that at work too. Occasionally I even work at work. LOL!

    I think I'm a dinosaur!
