I had a basic Sony/Ericcson phone, then for some reason switched to a fancy pants PDA, then got really annoyed with that after a month or two and switched back to the old one. After six years, the old phone died last week and I was forced to go back to the PDA.

It says I've made 4 calls in the past 3 years. I do believe all were within a year and on the same charge.

DAMN.

Nice.

Motorola C168. Cheap as dirt and almost as durable. I can't even count the number of times I've dropped/crushed/submerged/thrown this phone and it still works perfectly.

Blackberry Storm. I hate touchscreens. My pocket keeps making calls.

Who lives in your pocket that they can unblock your cell phone?

I hate finger prints. So touch screens are not my thing!

I had the LG Voyager for awhile. Then when I dropped Verizon I sold it to my friend who loves it.

:embarassed: I have a Tracfone that I don't even carry around.

I also admit that I'm a little paranoid about brain cancer. The jury's still out and it's a little weird, the occurrences of brain cancer on the same side as the phone was being used on:

iPhone 3G

I wouldn't go so far to say I love it, considering its lack of such simple features as a sideways keyboard for writing e-mails. I mean, it's not like I actually use a phone for making phone calls.

And then there's having to deal with AT&T service in a very Verizon-centric area where I live.

But, you know, there's also that major "iPhone 3.0" announcement looming on the horizon tomorrow...

Sanyo Katana II. Don't carry it with me very often, if someone calls me and I feel like talking to them, I'll call em back. Turn it off silent if I'm expecting a call.

I think it's cute...with a "bubbly personality". Also, it goes great with my green booksack and my favorite green purse.

Samsung Blast. It's utilitarian, nothing special. Got it cheap so I'm not complaining. I'll upgrade when it's been busted up beyond repair, but I figure I can safely drop it on the driveway at least ten more times before that happens.

iPhone 2G (1st gen.). I was an early adopter. I love mine too, but I would be much happier if I didn't have to deal with at&t.

Seriously, dude, I know what you mean. I can step out of my infatution with my brilliant little device long enough to bemoan the fact that sending a pic to another cell phone is harder than it used to be back in the day when I had my LG CU 500, and I also hate the fact that when my sister sends me multimedia text messages and jokes I have to log into AT&T online just to view the darned thing...

I used to have a Nokia something that folded out to be a keyboard. And it really came down to the fact that once you go keyboard, you don't go back. A lot of the time I just use the touch screen keyboard now because I'm lazy, but having the keyboard does have it's advantage.

I spent more money on the unlimited 1 Mbit per second internet connection on my cell phone than I spend on the phone calls I make.

It's not bad. Looks pretty good, but won't blow you away with features. Mainly centered around text messaging. Got a nice camera.

iPhone 3G here and so looking forward to that. Yes, they're late with some key features that should've been there in the first place but the excellent UI and mutli-touch along with the latest updates make up for it.

Just a few months more and maybe I'll get rid of the jailbreaking business. It's a sad truth but only the official firmware runs smoothly.

Then again, I won't be able to make it look like
