It is nice to have a mobile phone especially if you get stuck without a way out. that happened to me yesterday my car broke down and it was early in the morning and my phone bailed me out quickly so that I could get to work on time. So no I don't think we can manage without mobile phones. It's the prices that should be lower. I wish. LOL.

Nowadays if your single & don't have any responsibility at home then its okay if you don't have a mobile phone. But parents like me I find it as a necessity because I have to monitor my toddler at home alone with only the nanny left.

I think that times are changing. Just because they didn't use them in the old days doesn't mean we need to get rid of these things; it just makes life easier. So, to answer your question, I do not think we can manage without it. Because in this new world, we will have to adapt by using this mobile phone - not only used for what cbwork6 said above me, but it is used for safety in some cases. You can use it to call for help when you are not near any normal phone. We need the mobile phones to get information and to communicate, and in this world we live in it is really essential in life.

Today it is necessary to have a mobile phone at this point in time you can still function with out one but in the near future you will have to have one. Think about everything that they put into phones now camera, video, even watching tv and writing e-mails it is not far off to say that in the next 5 years land lines may very well be eliminated all together.
