My husband and I both do NOT! First, we can't afford it... And second, we have a landline... We are happy with that. If I really need to use a phone and I am not at home, I could try the telegraph or the pony expresss, or even the payphone.. LOL I get the funniest looks when I ask for the pay phone... :) hehehe

I used to NOT own a cellphone but my wife insisted I use one. In fact she gave me one. She said this way we could easily communicate wherever we are. I do admit that this is true but I still find it a burden to open it to check if I had any messages. I lose my momentum this way when I am at work.

Yes, mine is Nokia 6610i. Without cellphones it is difficult to keep in touch with my friends and family.

Yes, I own one and have for years... but, since I am self-employed and work from home, I'm not dependent on it at all. I do value it for the times I'm on the road, driving alone, or when I'm out anywhere, so that my children are always able to contact me and vice versa.

Yes I own a mobile, it's a Nokia 6630, I love Nokias, although I only use it to send and receive texts, I do not like talking on them and prefer to use the landline. I'm not very dependent on it at all, I can leave the house without it if I'm not driving. I always have it on my if I am driving just in case I break down.

I don't make a lot of calls on the cellphone, but I know I'd be very lost without one! I know it because I have encountered a really bad experience getting stranded without a cellphone.
Currently, I have 2 active mobile phone lines.

Yes I do own one, but I have never used it. It's been about a year now I reckon. I keep minutes on it, but I just haven't had a need for it. I reckon it's not a necessity for me.

I just have a trac phone, and rarely ever use it. I keep it with me for "just in case" instances. And also I keep it near me when I am online since I have dial up connection, this way if there is an urgency and someone needs to get a hold of me they have a means.

Yes, we own a cellphone. We mostly use it for emergencies. Or, sometimes for a long distance call.

The key is not to be so dependent on your phone; in case you forget it. Now with the new phone networks; nearly everyone has a phone (or two!)
