Do you have a cell phone or a flip phone?

    I said the same thing. Had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century. It's not hard to learn. You just have to play around with it. Really is a nice little toy.

    I have a cell phone around here somewhere, but I never use it.
    I only bought it because my son told me I needed one. But I really don't.

    I think it's a mobile in the UK. I have three but rarely use them since the new landline supplier dropped call divert. 

    The most ancient is a Nokia 3310 on its 3rd battery.

    I had to replace my Nokia 3310 a few years ago only because prolonged damp conditions ruined the screen. Pity that - I'd replaced its battery only a few months beforehand.

    Replaced it with a Nokia Something-or-other-it-doesn't-say. Straight voice & text 'phone, buttons not symbols, no camera, no picture display, no touch-screen, no "smartness", azure-dentures or wifey-link; just a few additions like a very basic calculator you'd need to augment with a book of mathematical tables to be much use!

    Does everything I need. And it fits in a pocket.

    I have a 10+ year old LG flip phone which I only use when I want to make an outgoing call or if I'm on the road for a long period of time.  Since I still haven't completely gotten the hang of how it works yet, I don't believe I am ready for anything more complicated.

    Oh, you are. I finally got rid of my 10 year old LG flip phone. Didn't use most of the stuff on it. Now I'm happily addicted to my iPhone. And family and friends are laughing their heads off because they told me for years that I'd love it. It's probably less complicated than the flip phone. Very intuitive.

    That's what my boss keeps telling me.  He keeps offering to buy me an iPhone, but I really have no need for one.  My phone does what I need it to do - make/receive calls.  When it finally dies, I will go for something more updated.

    I hear ya, but it really is a nice little toy. Especially when you don't have to pay for it!

    I have an LG Phoenix 2. I got it after my poor little flip-phone finally kicked the bucket. Now it rests in a tiny little coffin on my desk with other ancient artifacts.
