i mostly use it for emergency contact in case of an accident nowadays; but, it's also nice to have a personal phone number so your family can't pry into your affairs.
i get most of my talking done before i get home anyway^^.

Been using cell phones for about 6 years. Senor and I are cell phone buddies. We always get the same phone with our plans and contract renewals. Typically nothing fancy, I always go for the freebies. Senor has the upgraded version of the freebie.
Mine
His, with camera
Don't have a land line, no reason to. We do have a pseudo phone number for the phone company, since we have DSL and a home security system. But there's no phone attached to it. As far as the cell goes, I don't answer numbers that are anonymous, blocked or numbers I don't recognize. Life is much more peaceful without a land line.
I hate solicitations.

I've had the same cellphone for 2.5 years. Got it when I started college. 
I've been meaning to upgrade since it's starting to crap out on me.
They even left me messages a couple of times!!! Never listened to it long enough to figure out which party was trying to make me vote for them.

I hear you on Sprint. Try quitting their service, they won't let you. It was a very difficult and annoying process. The people were extremely rude and even hung up on us on more than one occasion. Cingular (now at&t) is a much better choice.
Stephen Colbert explains it better than I do.
That's a real shame Klet
I rarely have that kind of trouble, save for a random wrong number but I never answer those. If you manage to have the same service and phone number long enough, then you're able to eliminate most of the crap. Never giving out your real number when they ask for at stores and stuff helps too.

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

My mom took the liberty of adding my cell number to the 'Do Not Call' list after a person left a message on my voicemail trying to sell me something. I haven't received a single unwanted call since!klet wrote:Heh. Around election time, I was getting 3-4 recorded messages a day on my cellphone. They even left me messages a couple of times!!!

Yeah, I'm pretty much the same way, which is why I got a phone with a keyboard. One of my best friends lives in another state so we often text each other when one of us is out of town. We both happen to have unlimited text and picture messaging which is more convenient than eating up our minutes talking. You should definitely invest in a cell phone!Majin_Vegeta_2028 wrote:nope, not i

I didn't have one before Spouzal Unit gave me my current phone, because it bugs the living crud out of me to see people walking around in crowds with these things plastered to their ears. Call me Scrooge.
What I forgot to mention, though, is that I did drop the long distance plan on the landline after I got this. Cell phone only now. And it's saved us a pile of money. Me like that...

I don't like cel phones, but one store included my name in a contest and well I won - I had no idea I was contesting in first place - and well this is the one
the thing has annoying color lights that turn on when somebody calls you, it's like a ringing disco
I obviously unabled that option but yet....
