    I've never had a cellphone, nor do I see myself getting one in the future.

      Congrats Lonestar! I myself have been thinking about joining the "cellular society".... Is there anything I should be prepared for?

        Comrade Tassadar, I know - It boggles the mind but it is true. Finland IS considered part of the western civilization...and a "proper" civilization to boot!

          I still don't own one and don't feel that I need one. If I ever did get one, it'd be for emergencies (in the car and such), and I'd probably keep it off most of the time I was out of the house.

            I'm thinking of getting rid of mine.

            I predict in a couple of years it will be cool not to have a cell phone.

                    Well I don't think Wittlich has to worry about that .

                      I'm pretty sure the trend is already beginning. Cell-phone haters can already brace themselves together while not being considered as dorks by Cell-phone lovers. When those who succumbed to the hype understand they have become leashed by their employer and family, they'll envy our freedom

                        SMS is good. Communicate when you feel like it, not when some random person feels like communicating with you.

                        I like Poly for similar reasons.

                          I have used my phone once in the last two years, and that was to call out the breakdown service when my scooter broke down.

                          Seen recently in York - someone cycling across one of the main bridges across the river using one hand to hold a phone to his ear whilst using the other hand to hold the cigarette he was smoking. Proof that cell phones induce suicidal tendencies.

                                Do you get more girls with such a cell phone? Otherwise I´m not interested

                                ....Oh, but now as I think about it - maybe you get to know more girls, but can´t go into action because you spend most of your time babbling to them via cell phone

                                Those modern times...
