No, I have a BlackJack. I’ve been thinking of replacing it with a BlackJack II or a Tilt when I have some extra money. SmartPhones are great for checking the forums and BF to catch deals on the run.

I couldn't live without mine! I can get, and read, messages while I am in court sitting right in front of the judge. I can do my email from anywhere. I guess it is the instant gratification and the fact that I don't have to sit down at the end of the day and return 50 or so emails. I do it as the day is going. Love mine!

I've got an 8703 for work.
Now they can find me anywhere, anytime, any day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Actually, it's a great phone.

I've never had one and I can't stand Cell Phones in general, although I carry one for emergencies. I just don't get the addiction, I guess my age is showing... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

I'm sure if left alone with one for long enough, I'd probably stand a good chance of getting hooked too though... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

RW,

You sound like my wife does. I've been trying to get her to have a cell phone
for so long, I've just about given up.
I even went out and bought her one of those Pay and Talk phones.
She used it until the minutes were used up then stopped using it. Said that
she didn't like doing the "top up" very much...
I have been on her case about it, but she just keeps fighting it.
I guess that she doesn't want to be able to be tracked down when she's in town shopping. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Go figure eh? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

That's the type of cell I have too, I just can't afford or justify those ridiculous monthly bills. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Life just seems simpler and better without it to me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> My wife's always trying to get me to take my phone when I go for a hike in the woods or something, and I always tell her that people did just fine for thousands of years without it, so I think I'll survive just fine! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Kinda funny I always let my wife or son top mine up for me, and it just ran out yesterday, so I guess I need to hand it off for a refill when I get home from work. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Crackberry... cell phone.... NO THANK YOU! I want nothing to do with that stuff! I spend enough time on base being told what to do; when I'm done for the day, they have a home phone for emergencies... which I'll eventually hear the voicemail on when I come outta the woods! LOL!

Seriously, I'm surrounded all day by technology; when I come home to relax, most of the time I'm low tech. Hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, working on the vehicles.... anything other than think about more tech. I guess you look at it differently when you're one of the guys fixing and maintaining it all day long! LOL!

Our officers have those danged Crackberrys... and I have at least a half dozen work orders a day in relation to them! Arrrghhh! I curse the inventor of those things!

I'm glad to hear that I'm not alone, Tyger... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

The only battery powered device that I don't mind carrying is a very small flashlight... Heck! I don't even wear a watch for that matter. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
