Life Without Mobile Phones

I agree to you macthedj. There are still people who dont use mobile phones and are still happy like others who do. I've had a mobile phone since 3-4 years and its an inseparable part of my life. I dont have a alarm watch because I have an alarm in my mobile. I dont have any other phones because I use a mobile and so thats the only way by which my family and friends can contact me anytime anywhere. And I dont keep a diary or a phone book because I have my friends and families phone numbers saved in my mobile. You know this discussion of yours has made me realise that Im too dependent on my mobile. I'll have to do something about it... lol!

I have thought about that many times. I suppose it's great for people on business. They need their clients to get in touch with them or may be traveling alot. But i think about those who use if for mostly personal use. What did they do before communication was tied to their hips? Like those people who can't put the phone down for two seconds to order their starbucks coffee? Or who have obnoxious loud conversations while in a book store. I suppose those are the people who constantly checked their answering machines at home. Back when we had answering machines and not voicemail!

yes, there was life without mobile phones, there still is- do you think every person on earth can afford a cell phone? certainly not, and its obvious that they are still alive! earlier when we dint have mobile phones, people used to work according to a fixed schedule, i mean, everything had to be planned beforehand and implemented perfectly, there was a lesser scope of changing your schedule. these days its quite easier, you leave your office an hour earlier, you can call your gf to meet you at the coffee shop! its simple. mobile phones have certainly improved the standard of living, the way people do business.it has helped in reducing unwanted expenses, increased turnovers and what not! its simply one of the best inventions of the century. no longer a luxury, truly a necessity!

I remember, i just got my cell phone last year so it hasn't been long that I've owned it. I've said it before and will say it again, the human race has survived a long time without the use of cell phones.

ya.. mobile phone has been part of our life and some people just cant survive without any mobile phone around.. ;)
