We have cell phones galore in our house, hubby fixes them up at work and we get them free, I have a really cute silver one, Samsung cdma 2000 its so small, believe it or not it had been left out in the rain for few days, and it has dropped out of my useless handbag cell phone holder heaps of times from a height as well, and it still works like a dream, highly recommend it, it retailed a few mths back at 500 dollars but now you can pick it up for $399, I love that mine was FREE.

My young daughter has the best one, it has a camera, which takes excellent photos it's a Hyundai TX95c, she worked hard for it,on her paper round, and put all her birthday money from all the family, sold some old toys and hey presto, one kewl phone.

I actually think a cell phone is a necessity today, especially for young people, I feel better knowing I can always contact my daughter need be.

Between mobile phones lying around and remotes, I often get confused and pick up a phone to change the TV channel, lol.
