I am definitely more addicted to the internet as I'm not a phone person and enjoy the quietness of internet activity (though I do own a cell phone).
I consider the cell phone almost purely a necessity for safety and business. On the other hand, my internet activity is not only for business and communication, but has allowed me to enhance my technological skills, grow my non-profit, build friendships, educate myself on a wide variety of issues and has contributed greatly to my quality of life.
Perhaps when cell phones reach a point where the extra fees charged for the "fun" extras is a little more reasonable I will feel differently about cell phones, however, for the time being I could easily let go of a cell phone.

I believe both, as I do need a cell phone as I have no other phone, and the internet so I can keep in touch with my daughter through video conferencing. However, I have a cell phone now that has the internet on it, and I can acess mylot when I don't have my laptop. Theu are both important to me as they are both a good means of communication whether it be with my family or friends. Technology has resally advanced in the last few years, and who would have thougt we could access the internet on cell phohes. I know I didn't. It is really amazing, and it goes so fast, I can't keep up with it all. Happ mlotting.

Oh thats a tought one... I am really really addicted to my cell phone. Just cant live without it... cant even sleep without it being on my side. I am addiced to internet since I was in school. Chat rooms, net surfing, online games are a part of may life since a long time. I guess I would still choose my cell phone because without it I am nothing. I have all my friends and family's numbers in it. I have their bithdays in the reminder list. I use it as my alarm. Oh man... I guess I am too addicted to it.

You are absolutely right! Cell phones and Internet, both have magnetic addiction and people once start using these, they almost get hypnitised and they just want to go on, on and on! Earlier, I didn't have an Internet connection so, I kept sticking to my cell phone, spending just few hours on interent through net cafes. But, my call phone service provider has started GPRS service and now I can connect my Notebook to internet through my Cellphone only!
Now that these two things have summed up, I am spending everyday about 5-6 hours using these. I think I am a very big addict..!

I'm not addicted to my cellphone at all. In fact I don't like it. But I think I'm quite addicted to internet. But then again they are so different that people can get addicted to both or to none of them.

I'd say both.The cellphone is indispensables for me because through it, I communicate with my husband. The internet connects me with my mother and sister who now reside abroad. Chatting is so much cheaper than voice call, right? My husband can't make use of the internet even if he wants to because he is a seaman and he does not have a laptop.

Internet. I actually don't like cell phones. I never got the knack of using one in the car, I don't like talking on the phone in front of strangers, I don't like talking on the phone when I'm busy doing something else. I'm not really crazy about talking on the phone at all! lol. Cell phones are nice to have in emergencies or to be able to reach someone who's usually not home, but I just don't like one for myself.
I LOVE the internet, especially mylot. It's become my hangout. I love interacting with others, having thoughtful discussions, and meeting new people with new ideas. I love being able to find out anything you could ever want to know. I am addicted to the internet, not like crazy addicted, but like my life would be different without it.

If i will choose either of the two cell phones or internet, i prefer to have cellphone. It is very useful to me especially that i am a working mom. I have to check my daugthers in the house with their nannies from time to time.
