What's the cool cell phone to own now?

Evil Chris · 07-25-2006, 12:28 PM

I'm still using the Motorola RAZR.
I am not too crazy about it, but it does have great reception and Bluetooth is a must when driving now.

What's the cool one to own now? Anyone have the Motorola SLVR?

FB has an uber cool Samsung. Can't remember the model number though.

Anybody tried
Helio service? Looks pretty cool.

Yes I am an affiliate ...

dyonisus · 07-26-2006, 06:22 PM

yeah, I went out in the water the other week and killed my RAZR, the phone wants to work but the battery is done! I am in the market for a new one myself due to that!

Mr. Blue · 07-26-2006, 06:25 PM

I just have an old nokia that I hardly use anyway, lol. I guess I'm just not that much of a cellphone person.

carol.prime · 07-26-2006, 06:27 PM

I refer to cell phone insurance as the "chuck it in the lake" policy.
Mine covers it.

I don't have a cell phone

leedsfan · 07-28-2006, 08:52 PM

I have a Nokia 6682. I like it. I can play music, its got a good camera. It does voice activation on calls and apps. Video playback is good. Plenty of neat apps on it, and software is stable.

Virgule3 · 07-29-2006, 09:21 PM

This is my phone:

I told you it was pink!

Sophie.

I figured you had a pink RAZR.

Mr. Blue · 07-30-2006, 11:03 PM

I got a question about cellphones....does it ever annoy you that you can always be reached? Personally I feel a little caged in at times knowing that if I go for a long peaceful walk somewhere someone can call me about business and completely annoy me. Oh sure, You can shut the cell off, but then the person usually bitches at you after the fact.

I totally agree with you. I would love to simply cancel my service and be done with the damn mobile phone. It's crazy that we're all so accessible now, and mobile phones aren't simple communication devices as they once were. They're cameras, agendas, game consoles, and music players now. Basically they are becoming expensive (and disposable) time-wasters. All we are doing is buying into the commercial rhetoric that we NEED these fucking things to function in our daily lives when really we don't. All we're now doing is driving a previously monopolized section of the market (telephone services).

Fuck... we're all zombies.

And just because it rings doens't mean it gets answered.

Also, don't you notice people never interact with each other anymore. When I was growing up we didn't have all the gadgets to remove ourselves from our environment. When I got on a train or went to a public area, strangers might actually talk to each other out of boredom.

Now it's like, Ipod in the ears, cellphone on the ready, some wireless connection so they can "lol" with cyber strangers. It just seems like we're always disconnected from reality and living in some electronic medium now.

Eeek, we're becoming part of the matrix.

Yes... it's called social conditioning.

I even find myself saying to my Mom... "Mom, why do you talk to everyone like you know them?"... it's just because she's old-school and doesn't own any of the gadgets we own.

ok she has a cell phone. But it's NEVER on. LOL

I like your attitude.

The one thing I don't like about my own cell phone.... It rings! *arrrg*
