I got a new mobile phone today. I didn't realize how advanced they seem to have become. It can arguably do more than my first computer. It takes better pictures and video than my webcam that I have now! It has a nicer screen than my digital camera.

It's one hell of a toy and I have no clue how to use it.

I wanted something that could work anywhere in the world so I got a quad band phone and every goody known to man came with it.

Well for business it might come in handy and that's a legitimate expense. For personal use I can text message.

Advances in technology these days are amazing. My thick cock now has a plasma screen, a digital PABX exchange and an expensive Bang & Olofson sound system.

Bang & <b>Olufsen</b>, does that mean you have Swedish meat balls?[/childish humour]

I just got Verizon $49 for 1200 minutes primary phone, and 4 other phones for $10 month with shared minutes, {total $90 monthly for 5 phones on a 1 year contract.) Verizon to Verizon talk time is not counted towards shared minutes, and nights and weekends are free also.
I got 4 Samsung A670 flip camera phones with voice dial $118 (w/one year contract), plus buy one get three free, also one free Nokia phone.

Incredible service, plan and prices today, indeed.

My oldest Son sells for Verizon... He's putting us on that plan & we're getting rid of the phone here at the house.. There's no need for a land line any more....

I have considered getting rid of land line, but fear it would hurt my business not being listed in book.
If not for home based biz, I would cut land line too.
I dis-like BellSouth....

Heh-heh, every time BellSouth has one of their little town halls, those are the top two items of discussion. Verizon and people abandoning land lines. They can't stand either.

I can imagine.... It's kind of weird for me... I've always had a land line... I'll have to see how it goes, but we're going to try it out, anyway....

Before you know it, the next big thing over cell phone messaging will be ..............SOUND messages! :lol:

With MMS, get ready, now you don't need text speak, but voice speak, because supposedly the phone can't reach through live contact but can send a file and make it reach. :eek:

The bed buying public, via the director of operations. I got the phone unconnected and chose my own taffif. It does not cost me a lot, I need a PDA and a phone and am simply too lazy to carry both.

$20, isn't that worth about 10p. Are you getting cheaper or am I getting a regular rider discount?

and then we'll have weird devices that actually record them if you away from your desk and maybe they will call it voice mail.
