I have an ENV3. It has songs loaded on it, but I haven't listened to them in a long time. I use my ipod for that. I do take pictures and send text and pic messages. But that's it. Got rid of the mobile web cause I never had time to use it. No need for an iphone or Droid

Wow I am not alone here. I have a plain old flip phone, I too make mostly phone calls with it, with a little bit of texting. At my old job I would have liked one to help me kill time a little better, but now I currently have a computer to help me pass the time at work and to do work.

It should be legal to shoot anyone texting and driving.

...AND legal to just fucking run over anyone texting and walking.

I was very happy with my simple mobile phones I used up until a couple of years ago. I tried using a Windows smart phone about 5 years ago and hated it after a few days. Went back to my simple phone.

I think the tide turned for me when I worked our company's yearly show in Houston a couple of years back. The guys I was working with in the training sessions would be texting me non-stop because we had some HW/networking failures we were trying to get straightened out in time for the first class. By the time I would finish replying to a TXT on my old school phone, I had received 10 more. And the fact that I couldn't check my corporate mail was a huge hindrance.

After that I decided to make my life easier and take the plunge. The ability to quickly TXT and/or e-mail and/or access my desktops and files through my phone is invaluable for me when away from my office or while travelling. I don't think I could ever go back, unless I chose a different career path.
