I know you are just trying to get a rise
out of people and I usually don’t bite,
But...


Yep, that’s me all right!
My phone is:

My kitchen timer
My alarm clock
My calculator
My shopping list maker (reminder)
My flashlight
My magnifying glass
My gps
My newspaper and magazines
My library (my kindle is on it)
My camera
My video recorder
My movie screen
My photo album
My music portal
And of course,
My phone
My Texter
Probably more that I can’t think of and
It’s been all those things due over 10 yrs

Interesting list. Put all together like that it should be a no
brainer to own and pay for a smart phone.

I did have a flip phone for several years but it was talk only.
That's good for emergency calls, at the least. The free
(included) long distant calls were nice.

I use my phone to optimize my drives by finding out road/traffic conditions and alternate routes. The cell phone has changed traffic patterns. My favorite secret shortcuts are no longer secrets.

I use the camera to document receipts and written notes. Scanning phone screens with barcode readers for special deals at shops/restaurants are a thing these days. It's a hot and wonderful sales tool. The kids love that kind of shit...

My watch does a lot of that including phone calls and texting. It's a
great alarm clock and timer. There's even fitness and medical stuff
that I don't care about. My wife can tell exactly where I am providing
there's wifi or a cellular signal. The watch uses "free electricity"
from the wall ;)
From a previous thread, I needed the watch batteries for another gizmo.

Humans are just transport vessels for DNA, and have little say in how
selfish they are.
