    Smart phone

    I finally got a smart phone. But I wont be carrying the thing, too much trouble.

    We had to get new phone aervice because only AT and T works in
    Hermann. So I gave up my Tracphone which I never liked especially anyway, but it did the basic job it was supposed to do.

    I like the iPhone much better than the Android. Much easier to use. I carry it around in case of my car breaking down, etc. yes

    We I got an IPhone because I live on an IPad, so everything looks familiar.

    I already got a set of images sent to me via text. Hmmm, that’s different. Not sure what to/how to do them.

    I use mine mostly as a portable computer and camera, it is rare that I make or receive a phone call or text.

    I was cleaning up my lab the other day and found some of my old flip phones - they were really quite a good solution if you just wanted a simple phone - small, light-weight, easy to carry, relatively robust.

    I still have my favorite cell phone ever, the Motorola Startac analog, circa 1996 or 97. If it were possible to be used I would certainly do so.
    I also still have the must functional digital non-smart phone I ever owned, the Nextel i830. I'm still upset with Sprint for killing Nextel's service.

    I don’t have anything against smartphones. My wife has a nice iPhone 7 that is useful in many situations. I would not have a cellphone if it weren’t required for happy wife happy life existence. So my $50 Consumer cellular Doro flipphone does a nice job when I remember to take it with me.

    If I leave the house with my iPhone I feel "under-dressed". But I use my laptop much more than the phone.
