M's phone died a horrible death today so I now have to make a decision re: a Smartphone. Yikes!
Do I want one, or not?
I've always said no because I'm generally either at work or home, and both places I have unrestricted internet access.
If you have it, what do you use it for? Do you think it's worth an extra $30/month?
Re: WW the Nesties Do?
I use mine all the time. You saw how devastated I was when mine died while you guys were here. I google EVERYTHING so thats something besides being obsessed with fb!
I think we're almost at the point where you have to have one. I don't know what I did without it. Led a simpler life, apparently, but they sure are freaking handy.
This exactly
Even without a GPS map, the Map function that comes pre-loaded on it is as good as a normal GPS. We rarely use our TomTom anymore.
I juuust got my first smartphone (iphone) in January... and I agree with the girls... it makes a lot of things simpler. If I was on a super tight budget, I could live without it... but seriously, I can drop $30 easily anywhere. When I'm standing in line, I can get a work email done that I dont have to do later, or if I'm waiting at the dr's office, I can respond to posts on FB or here... and stuff, it actually alleviates. Also, when you're at home on WiFi, you dont use your data so you could just get the smallest data plan and be fine. I have 2G and I dont come close. Everything is easier, from checking voice mails to texting to having the phone set reminders for you, your calendars, etc... love it... could you live without it? Of course! But why, lol?
