I HATE cell phones. I had one and as soon as my contract ran out I got rid of it. I can see where they can be helpful, the reason why I got my cell phone in the first place was because at the time I was playing a lot of gigs in Phoenix and I figured since it was a 2 hour drive that I was making pretty often I should have on in case of an emergency. But then it started getting annoying, I guess it was also my fault for giving out the number to my friends. But I feel like if I'm out I'm obviously busy so I don't want to be disturbed. So my phone sat in my car most of the time, with close friends leaving messages wondering why I wasn't answering my cell phone. There are several other reasons why I don't like them, but that is just the reason why I would never have one for myself again.
