Up until last month I just had a Tracphone. I upgraded to a REAL Verizon cell phone! I love texting! It is a great way for my daughter and my significant other best friend to keep in touch during the day when neither of them can phone from their jobs. And both of my kids now have dogs so they send me pics from their phones of my grand puppies! I just think it is so cool. I never understood the cell phone and texting thing until I got one. Now that I have it I really wished my mom could text. She is 89 though and I doubt she will do it.

As far as the other gadgets, I just have a laptop and a Kindle.
