So what phone does everyone use?

[motrucker]

I voted other, but it was a toss up between other and cheapest. I only use a phone, pretty much as a phone.
I have a Palm that is rather neat - but the only reason I use this is it was FREE.
I really don't like these damned things. I hate the way people use them in public too. To call them rude is an understatement. Cell phones are illegal to use here while driving - but does that stop anyone? I am starting to stray, so I'll cut it off here...

Awesome.  It's always so nice to see the amigoid crowd chime in about how they don't need this newfangled that or the other - and then justify it with (uninformed) comments about the functionality.

I remember when using an Amiga meant having a computer that was cutting edge, ultra high-tech and ran rings around the rest.  Now, if this thread was anything to go by, the sad remainders of the userbase are a bunch of bitter old Luddites who'd prefer the tech world be a more frustrating, slower and harder to use place.

And for the record I have a Samsung Intercept as my sole phone, bill ranges anywhere from $25-$60, depending on what I want to pay Virgin Mobile on any given month.  No contracts, and if it comes down to it I can tether it to my PC and use it as my broadband connection, cutting the $50 Sprint wireless 4g bill out of the budget.

As for the rest?  There's a guy with an Imsai 8080 and paper tape reader who thinks you're all a bunch of effete snobs.

It's quite possible to be on the edge of some technologies, and not give a flaming fart about another...
