i am living in a country where cellfone is a necessity rather than luxury. in a house hold of 3 for example (kids included), for sure there are at least 3 or 4 cellfones in it. but why many if it's a necessity? why not only 1 or 2? and why do we need to upgrade the unit every now and then? why can we be contented with Nokia 1200? why? how many cellfone do you have? and what's it for?

I have two active cell phones on my account. In the long it is cheeper because I have a line and my hubby has a line. The phones are in my name and I pay one bill for the phones which saves money. It would cost about the same if we had seperate lines, maybe more if you added it up because you'd be paying taxes twice. This way I only pay for them once, and then.. yippy skippy..... one bill both phones covered. better in my opinion.

I have only one cell phone. I gave my old one to my brother in law who needed one as he could not fix his. So I saved him some money. After all he does a lot of things for me. When I am stuck and I need an electrician he is always a phone call away.I don't think that having two cell phones is a good idea for me. At least I don't need it.

I have 2, but only one is activated. I just bought a new phone last week, as the other one just didn't do what I thought it would, and I was very disappointed after several months of use, not to mention the fact it kept shutting itself off whenever it felt like it and I just couldn't deal with that as I need the phone to be on all the time as it is the only one I have since I don't have a land line. Anyway, the one I bought last week, as everything on it I want and then some, and I can even post from it, and that really makes me happy, as my other phone, I could access mylot, but not post at all. I have already done a few posts in here with it, even though I can't type as fast as on the computer, but it is doable. It has a feature on it called swype, where I either use my finger or the sytlus, and go from letter to letter to form the word. I don't lift the stylus off the screen, until I have formed the word and ready to do another one. I don't even have to space as it does it for me, except when I end a sentence, then I have to. It is a neat feature, and I enjoy using it to post in here. Take care, and have a very good day.

No, it isn't a Nokia. It is a Aamsung Omnia 2, which is a windows mobile phone. I am happy that I can post in here with it, as I have tried it with other phones, but it just wouldn't work. Now, that I an post in here, I will do it from time to time, as it is lots of fun. It has an on screen keyboard, which is really a good keyborad, as it has a swype feature, where I take my stylus and go from letter to letter without lifting the stylus until I have the word completed. It also puts the spaces after each word too, and that helps, as I don't have to put them in, except at the end of a sentence, after I put in a period. It is relaly a great phone, and I am glad that I bought it even though it was expensive, I am not regretting buyi8ng it at all. I highly recommend it, if you like windows mobile that is. I am with Verizon, but I understand that AT&T has it too.
