What cell/mobile phone do you own?

[taz_rocks_miami]

I have a Blackberry, not sure what kind... 8300 or something maybe? It's ok, it has a keyboard which is pretty much all I care about, I only use it for calls and texting... oh and the calendar every now and then.

That´s one of the reasons I got my BlackBlerry, the full QWERTY keyboard. I hate typing on normal cell phones. The QWERTY keyboard makes it much faster.

I used to have a Palm Treo 650 and I had it for the same reason.

about 10 years ago my company offered me (and the staff of the whole department) a palm top as an annual bonus. I refused, because then I would have had to use my reading glasses on a permanent basis. I got some quality bottles of wine instead, which I greatly preferred.

Jajaja, I can see why you chose the wine Henk You know, 10 years ago, it wasn´t that common or even nessasary to have at least e-mail on a phone, as it is in my case. Besides, back then phones like the Palm and the BlackBerry didn´t even have WIFI, they do now, so it´s much easier to be online if needed. I´m on my carriers 3G network, so WIFI isn´t indispensable to me. But It will come in handy if I pay my bill a few days late

I had a ¨normal¨ cell phone for a few months. A Sony Erricson R306, I thought I could get by with just texting and calls. But the inability to read and answer e-mails while on the go made me think again. I hated telling people, as soon as I get to the computer, I´ll ....

Plus typing even a simple SMS on a normal is a pain in the butt for me.

I have a HTC Hero. Best phone I have ever owned.

What do you like about it? What do you use it for?

I have some awful thing made by LG. Flip phone with a color screen on the inside and b&w on the outside, and that's about it.
It is a piece of shit.
It is very thick, so that even when I wear loose pants it digs into my leg, and despite the fact that I only use it once a week or so and text once a month, the keys refuse to ever admit they've been pressed.
All that being said, because I use it so little those problems don't matter that much. I don't like all of the vapid phone conversations that people have so I usually only turn it on to call other people. It would be nice to join the 202nd decade, though, with something smaller and a bit more functional.

You can do this: bring the phone, and use only when you need it. Only the people I care have my number, or those I need to talk with, and since I'm not one of those sending a text message every 30 seconds, I don't receive those messages either. So freedom, check.

Well I fortunate in that aspect too. I don't get many calls and those who call me are the ones I care about. Also, my texting ability is limited, so I don't get many meesages either.

On the other hand, you may want to bring something that replace some comforts you have at home, like internet access, music...
I always considered built in cameras a somehow good thing, as you will always have a camera to shoot something interesting or funny.
How that influenced the flood of horrible shots all over the place (like facebook) is whole different subject.

That said, I don't think there is a mobile phone which is just that, a phone, with a good camera and nothing else. They always come with other stuff I really don't care. Like something bigger than my wallet or worth more than may monthly rent.

I like Ferrer's no-internet thing- I go outside to go outside.

But I do like the camera part- I like photography, but I don't always carry a DSLR. I'd love a dumb phone with a great camera- micro SD card slot, good ISO performance, decent resolution.

That's why I'd love it if Apple put a camera in a Ipod Touch.

Not that the Ipod Touch is exactly cheap though.
I never understood that thing though, it's like an Iphone, but it can't make phone calls, so that you have to bring another phone with you.

I've the Verizon Razzle, and I love it. I don't do much on it except for texting, and calling, which it is great for. It's also a great looking phone, with the black background and green buttons.

I also have a very old iPhone, the first generation or something. It was given to me for free, but it doesn't have the AT&T subscription so I just use it as my portable camera and listen to my music on it.

the Cheapest iPhone of them all. (2G iPhone 4GB)

Well, I guess it still cost (when new) more than the 3G/3GS ones.
