What else do you use your cell phone for?

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

I would, but I just spent all my money on a phone.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

It's my money, after all.

Alright, wage slave.

I'll be over here, telling the system to go fuck itself.




In related news, can someone loan me a twenty? I'll pay you back. I swear.

/bets most of these features can be accomplished on his 40 dollar phone.

Probably. But that doesn't mean that I don't still want something subjectively nicer. It's my money, after all.

I mainly use my cell phone as a text machine and a phone, but just as feba does, I use it as a flashlight as well from time to time.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

Both have features I need/want.

Go with Blackberry. iPhones are way overrated... They wouldn't sell half as much without the brand "i" in front of it.

I've used both, and like both. Both have features I need/want. iPhone wins out for form factor, multi-touch and the larger screen, but otherwise, they are pretty even. Overrated is totally subjective.

Only an idiot would, Feba, since they only cost $400.

Onionsoilder: Duh. Who the hell would pay $600 for a phone?

Have we met?

My next phone will likely be an iPhone or a Blackberry. If I were still with Sprint, I'd get the Touch, which I've been hearing good things about, but I'm not, so it's a moot point.

edit: And yeah, I've dropped my Razr a lot. It's sturdy as hell.

I've seen phones like that, but they always seemed pretentious.

Cell phones do seem to be sturdy bastards.

I've had cell phones fall, break into pieces, and work perfectly once you snap them back in place.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

Had a razr for two+ years and never had any problems with it breaking. Always seemed to be sturdier than you'd think. The thinness made it incredibly easy to carry in my pocket
Now using iphone. Its my timepiece, flashlight when I go to bed late at night and their are no lights on. Occasionally an alarm clock.
Plus, being able to check weather and sports scores quickly and anywhere is nice.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

That's actually what I hate about it. It's to thing for my tastes. It feels very flimsy too, like I'm going to break it anytime.

Dropped mine enough to know it's not going to break that easy.

and the thin-ness is one of the things that drew me to it.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

I have a sony ericson W810i (see pic)


It has an inbuilt walkman, a 2 megapixel camera built in with video mode and wap etc.

Other than phone calls and txt messages, I use the walkman feature in teh gym when working out on the machines and the camera is a good abckup when on site for taking photos should my camera die / memory is full etc. Theys till give a good 640x480 photo from the phone which is ample. i can also use the 512mb memory stick 9that came with it) to store not only music for the walkman feature but any files I want so its kind of a backup memory stick that can talk to my pc via bluetooth.

It also has a nice bright led light I can use when on surveys (if the toarch runs out) and also I ahve no watch so its my time piece.

Re: What else do you use your cell phone for?

I had a phone that didn't flip open. it was nice at first, but the flip mechanism is very much better than the "call random people whenever you walk around" feature of non-flipping phones.
