Poll: Have you at one point in time owned a cell phone?

[lancestorm]

I never have. I must be the odd one! (24 yo)

 

[HESDog]

I don't have one either, and I have no desire to get one.

 

[PingSpike]

I am also 24 and have never owned a cell phone.

I had a cell at 15 with my own money when such a thing was largely unheard of (around '97). My first plan? Cellular One, $19.99 for TEN PEAK MINUTES per month and roaming out the ass. No bullshit. :laugh:

At least my phone was slick--while everyone still had a chunky Motorola DPC650 flip phone, I had the tiny (at the time) Ericsson DH-368. :thumbsup:

 

[Willoughbyva]

I've never had one and I am 35. I don't intend to get one either. I hardly ever speak on the phone.

 

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

I'm 21 and haven't....

I don't even use my regular phone more than 2 times a week. I wouldn't use it enough to make at worth it.

 

[FoBoT]

no, my wife has them. i had one for work for 2 years, provided and paid by them. i have never personally owned for my use a cell phone

i am 38

 

[layoutd05]

The only reason i have one i so my mom feels better with me driving around .... (im still only 17).... if i had to pay for it i definately would not have one

 

[Freejack2]

Could I live without a cell phone if I didn't need it for work? Yes. Would I want to? No.

 

[Bassyhead]

i've never owned one either, don't need one

 

[KingPhil]

I"m on cell phone #5.........

Its nice to have the ability to pick up the phone and call whenever i want. I ditched the home phone being there was no more use for it, and my cell costs about the same

 

[PCMarine]

I'm 18 and have had one for a little over a year; I love mine and it would suck to not have one...

 

[eplebnista]

Have you ever owned a cell phone?

Yes, a Nokia, for about three years, then I decided I didn't actually need one(~2001) and I cancelled the service.

 

[SWScorch]

I do have a Trakphone which resides in my car, and is more than likely out of date, and therefore, out of service. Does that count? I hope not. I hate cellphones.

 

[RossMAN]

I've had various cell phones for about 10 years now.

 

[daveshel]

Had one back in 2000-01. Best moment of ownership was when I closed the account and traded the phone here for a HDD, FDD and a stick of RAM.

 

[zbalat]

We don't even have a land line (haven't for 2+ years). We all have Nextel phones.

 

[bradruth]

I've had mine for about 9 months now. I can't imagine going back to not having one.

 

[psiu]

Owned 2.

One was a friend of mine's phone, that another friend with pooey credit wanted, I transferred it to my name and he made the payments.

So not really.

The other was a Nextel that my wife actually used, as I was provided one with only the Direct Connect feature at work.

So I never really had one, I guess. But I've had 2 contracts for them.

 

[jadinolf]

I owned one from 1995 thru 1996.

I cannot think of any reason to have one now.

I'll never own one. They give me headaches.
