None of them. Not even a cellphone. I am a modern Luddite.A family member wanted me to get a cell, and offered to buy it for me for Christmas. The incentive? “Just think! I’ll be able to call you wherever you go!!”That caused me to demur more forcefully than was entirely polite.I cannot imagine wanting to be ‘connected’ all the time. One of the reasons I leave the house is to NOT be bothered by the phone, email, or the like…
I have a tracfone and a landline. I’d skip the landline except that I can’t get reception inside my building and winters in OH make standing outside to talk doubly unattractive!
One of my sons also wanted to buy me a cell “You can see movies and all kinds of other things on it” To me, who hates to watch even short films here on mu 20" PC screen! I have some DVDs I’d like to watch that a UK friend sent me but I want to convert them so I can play on a TV, I spend too much time here (have not even had breakfast yet).
Had two iPhones. Last one was stolen. Now have an HTC Android phone, and quite frankly, love it. I don’t use all its capabilities all the time, but they are there when I need them. I have a small business, and it IS my business line.
I carry a plain Jane phone. It does however take pictures (only because I had no choice). It came with every ring tone but a phone ringing. It literally took 1hour at the ATT store to get my cell phone to RING. Sad but true.
I go to every meeting armed with my state of the art index cards and ball point pen. While everyone else is trying to get their phones and pads working and complaining about battery life, i’m writing down what the boss is actually saying.
I have a stupid phone…it makes and receives phone calls. I could access the internet but why watch something on a 1.5"x 1" screen when I have an 18" widescreen monitor I can watch at home??

We can all have our levels of connectedness. From totally unplugged to so-connected-I’m-disconnected-again.

Just an ordinary every day run of the mill smell phone with no apps or toys. It’s also off most of the time as well.

I do not need nor want any over-priced techno scams. Thepeople I communicate with are within voice range.
