Title: Cell phones
Post by: sgluckadoo on July 07, 2012, 02:45:01 pm: How long have you had your current cell phone? Do you upgrade often?

I have had mine (lotus) for over 2 years. It isnt fancy but it works well so why pay for a new one? That is my philosophy.

Post by: ernica96 on July 08, 2012, 09:41:41 am: I had the LG imprint from 8/10 till 5/12 and just upgraded to the HTC wildfire S in May ....I was hesitant to buying a new phone with my money at first so I just used a whole bunch of Amazon gift cards I got from websites similar to fusion cash to buy it.

I too have a tracfone....I don't need a better one at this time if ever. I don't understand why people get so crazy abut their phones. But I have never had a smartphone..so who am I to say? LOL

Post by: luvh8tragedy87 on July 08, 2012, 07:44:20 pm: I've been using my Samsung Galaxy S a year next month. It's my first smart phone and I love it. I've been using it a lot over the past year because I had a really slow and old computer and just had to rely on my phone to check certain things.

Post by: stretch1967 on July 09, 2012, 03:42:57 am: I have had my nokia for about 3 years. I dont text that is what I got my computer for as well as the internet. I cant see squinting to type. I use my phone to talk. There has been too many people killed , injured because of those. I think it is New Jersey you cant even text and walk. They have had numerous pedestrians killed because if it.

Post by: kaitsilva on July 09, 2012, 05:07:20 am: I have an HTC Thunderbolt and I actually firmly believe in upgrades! I use my cellphone for practically everything (funnily enough, calling people is probably the last thing I do with it!) so it's really important to me that I have a smartphone that's new and speedy instead of just kinda sorta functional.

Post by: alice44 on July 09, 2012, 08:07:30 am: I've had my current cell for 4 years. But have had a cell for over 10 years. I have not gone to the smart phone - just the basic. Sometimes Is question getting one and then I look at the cost compared to mine. I don't know where I can get a fancy one for the little I pay each month @$10.00. I also still use my home phone for my basic communication.

Post by: cford6 on July 09, 2012, 01:54:08 pm: I have an LG slide up cell phone through straight talk I have had it for almost three years now, I plan to upgrade in a few months or so, since it tends to shut it self off on its own.
