I've finally succumed!
I got my first computer over 30 years ago so, I have no adversion to technology.
However, I never got a cell phone due to the fact that I have little use for one and I relish the time when people can't contact me. In this day and age however a cell phone is becoming almost a necessity. So, today I signed up for service. I just got A Nokia 6085 which is plenty good enough for my purposes.  Anyone else holding out or was I the last one one earth? |

I always enjoy climbing a hill, lighting a fire, and sending smoke signals to my friends and relatives...

I got a plan that disables texting and only costs $9.50 a month.
as I haven't been a teenager for many decades.  I got it just for emergencys and ocasional use only and there will probably be some months that I rarely use it at all. This is all without any long term contract and I can modify the plan at any time to include web browsing and/or texting, etc. Anyway, I can't wait to get my new toy.

I held out for a long time, too...now it is my only phone. Even though I deal with gadgets every day in my job, I tend to steer away from them in my personal life as much as possible.

I had planned to be the last one on earth myself, however I succumbed in January. I got a Samsung phone with a prepaid plan from Verizon, of which I have used about $75 worth to this point.

I have yet to get personal cell service myself actually.
Working for wireless telecommunications companies for the last 6 years make it unnecessary though. (And as I result I've had more cellphones than most people will have in their lifetime.  )

I think the justification is the answer to why I don't have a cellphone! I have my privacy, and the boss, the family, and the (non-existent) girlfriend are those I can call or can call me when I am home. Perfectly happy, thank you...
