Ah, I chucked my father's cell phone down a small waterfall on vacation once, so that might be why he's uneasy with the idea...but that was like 7 years ago...

Not true. The new ones are as fragile as any other phone.
However, the older ones - black and white, big and heavy - are actually invincible. I guess Nokia stopped making them like that cos it meant people buy fewer new phones cos they never break.

You chucked your fathers cell phone down a waterfall? Well I feel better about my clutziness now.
There is a sort of busy worm,
That will the fairest book deform,
Their tasteless tooth will tear and taint
The poet, patiot,sage or saint,
Nor sparing wit nor learning.
Now, if you'd know the reason why,
The best of reasons I'll supply;
'Tis bread to this poor vermin.

I've washed my cellphones...one time each...twice.

The first one was destroyed.

So true.

I dropped mine down three flights of stairs (school stairs, the drop was over 100ft) and all I had to do was snap the cover back on and it was fine.

Yes. Boulder Falls, the State of Colorado. Ah, I remember that day. Some vacation.

I want a chocolate. :lol: at the pink one...might get it just to see the look on people's faces at the neon glo-in-the-dark phone

Chocolates look cool, but I'd rather have an iPhone.

You know, if I could bring myself to part with the cash.

You'd actually have to buy, and then pay for the minutes as well.

Yes.

I'm currently deciding cellphones are pointless, the ones with extra features that is. Why can't we have simple phones?

Because the people making the phones are money hounds out to make us broke?

Point taken.

But we can refuse. Rise against the money hounds and fight the man!

Bah, you can get a perfectly servicable phone, with a SIM card and £10 of credit, for £20, so no whining.

i want one but there is no way in hell i am falling for my dads 'i will pay half' trick. its a complete rip off, especially in the UK where most things seem to cost more. anyway, my phone is so old it has now gained 'retro' status within my school so i might as well keep it.

My parents bought me my phone, which admittedly has a camera on it.

I'd be happy with a perfectly useable phone.

And no, though they maybe cool, they're not.
