    I use a dumb phone to call people once in a blue moon. And to take pictures of the tags I chase on the bike.

    Don't care..Im a geek!

    Hence just got a Asus Fone pad (7 inch screen)

    ...Jus cos I like to look stupid when answering a call in public! (I don't actualy need the phone to achieve this)

    -I don't actually use mine for calls & txt's much (Im anti social!)...but media, games, web browsing and giving to the kids to keep them quiet...works a treat!...and no more squinting!!


    ...they have there use's (my fav being GPS!...because I can get lost in the friggin supermarket!)




    ps...not for pockets! lol

    You must have tiny pockets as I've been carrying mine around for the last 3-4 years, more often than not on vibrate only.

    When the home phone rings and I completely ignore it when with someone. You can physically see them squirming and beginning to slobber like Pavlov's dog when they finally say "aren't you going to answer that?".

    People have the mind-set that they must become a slave to their phone.

    A club I belonged to, had loads of mobile phones laying around while their owner participated in the sport. Most wankers left the fucking things turned on, so everyone else could enjoy the constant ringing while their owner was miles away!
    I walked around switching them all off.
    At the end of the day the owners would comment on having a nice relaxing, stress-free day without being bothered by the office/mistress/wife/bookmaker/etc.
    Then they worked out their shoephone was OFF!

    And when they turned the phones back on, low and behold they lost the job/mistress/wife/bookmaker/etc

    Exactly...phones can wreck the ability to fully enjoy and engage with others. But then I like the fact that turning them off can cause such chaos and mayhem more than farking rainbows and unicorns.

    People have the mind-set that they must become a slave to their phone:
    If someone came up to you on the street and started yelling "TALK TO ME , TALK TOME , TALKTO ME" would you talk to them?
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........
