Hi guys! I just thought that technology has been of great help to us especially in the field of communication. Nowadays I guess most people have their own phones and some are really longing to have the latest devices. I guess I can survive without a cellphone I have survived before. It makes us more upfront when talking and communicating to others because in texting we sometimes doubt if they are really sincere in what they are saying. But I am still thankful for the innovators of cellphone. How about you?

It maybe hard for me to survive a day without a cellphone. I have tried not having one for a week when I left my phone in my parents' house and I find it really hard. I can't even call my husband to tell that I will be late home because I was caught on heavy traffic. I like my cellphone because it is helpful even if you are outdoors especially for emergency cases. It can save a lot of time and sometimes, can also save lives.

I would be lost without my cell phone. My husband and I got rid of our landline because the company that bought out the local phone company was extremely high. We paid more for our landline than we did for two cellphones. I use my cell phone to keep in contact with my friends, family, and my children's school. I also have my class assignments, meetings, and other important dates all scheduled into my phone so that an alarm will go off to remind me. I am glad that the cell phone was invented because I enjoy having my phone on me at all times. I don't have to worry about missing an important call, or risk not being contacted in case of an emergency, just because I had to leave the house.

Hi! Calling from landline phones is really expensive , we do that when we don't haev a load and we need to call somebody. The fee is much higher.Cellphone s are not only use for communication, nowadays it can be our planner,diary and a lot more.

yes of course i think mobile phones are useful but not really essential to survive as well...so in my survival kit probably the mobile phone wouldn't be available...
