Do i or dont i ?

If your going to do it then a smart phone with Internet is the only way to go or it's pointless. A smart phone makes texting and email easy at the touch of your fngers. You can search online if you want too know something about a place your travelling to or are travelling through.

you don't have to get on face book although you are but you can post here from your phone, view maps, use it as a GPS, search for info,

Did I mention that they take photos!!! Really bloody good photos!!! I have over 5000 photos on my iPhone and only wish I had a smart phone earlier as I missed so many photo opportunities. Never again, I take heaps of pics.

My dad has a literacy problem and I got him an iPhone and his writing is so much better for it, his ability to communicate via text messages its so simple is a winner.

No brainer mate, if your going to do it you should get a smart phone with Internet and it should be an iPhone!!!!! Fark the haters! You know I'm right, an iPhone has an iOS platform that is sooo user friendly that it is perfect for an new user.

Or don't??? Your choice.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
The man in the hat with a mobile phone ??
Thats just too funny for words...........ROFPML

I'm kidding.. dont do it. The only good thing is that you are reachable during an emergency.

My 74 year old mother has one for such instances, trouble is, she's either got the damn thing turned off or she's let the battery run flat. .......... pointless. But she always manages to keep her friggin Ipad on and charged up, shes a Facebook freak, go figure

SOFT! Get out of stone age pops. You'll learn how to use it in no time mate

Come to think of it my dad was thinking weather or not to get one ages ago. He ended up getting a phone (old school nokia brick) but never used it and it ended up sitting in the glove box with a dead battery anyway. Now mum & Dad just share one, works for them. . .

Mate I don't think you need one... Jane has one and when you're out bush without her you're normally with some of us and we all have one anyway... like you said where we go they don't work! haha

[threedogs]

Agree with Winnie you travel with Jane so PPl "you" know will know how to contact you
if you're ever needed in a hurry, they can ring Jane no brainer for mine.

Bloody hell I feel old saying this yet even in my mid 30's I remember the days when I didn't have a mobile. Life was much cheaper & simplified. however I remember feeling like I was part of the "in crowd" when I finally got one at age 21. Now I run my business & as such I need a smart phone. But I often look back to when life was simple. Honestly if it weren't for my business I probably wouldn't have a mobile ph at all. They're a royal pain in the ass. Needless to say I dnt have facebook either. If I want to talk to someone I call them or visit them. If I'm not likely to call or visit them then I don't need to stay in contact. I don't care what old school mates are up to, how many kids they've had, what new car their wife drives or what they're having for dinner.

Roofy, it's good to see someone who can stand against the crowd without doing something just because everyone else does.

I have a mobile its an old nokia and I rarely use it. I put $20 of credit on it every few months and that's it (I make maybe 1-2 calls a month on it, usually to my wife!).
My wife convinced me to get a smart phone, I used it for 2-3 weeks before I got really annoyed with carrying around such a big useless lump and went back to my old nokia. Don't get me wrong I don't hate Technology (well maybe a little!) but I just prefer the lack of care I need to show my old nokia.
When out and about my wife always has her phone with her, and there are always others with phones.
