    I have a cell-phone, and that's all that it is.....don't want internet, don't want the games and toys,...just want to be in contact w/ family and friends, when I'm not home, after-all it's still called a cell PHONE

    Dude,I'm not stressed,I just want to learn.This thing is faster than my home computer.
    We went on a road trip today to an unfamiliar town and the GPS told us how to get there.

    I love my iPhone. You wouldn't believe the stuff you can do with a smart phone. I'm technologically disadvantaged and I figured it out. The apps I've found that make my day to day chores easier are unbelievable. Have fun and use the technical support that you get when you bought the phone.
    I'm a steward but I'm not your steward. So don't worry about what I think. It's my opinion.

    That GPS also told THEM where you were.

    Could it be that there are those of us who do not wish to spend life leashed to their cell phones? My son has an iPhone 4S and loves it. I have to admit that Siri is pretty cool. He forwards his personal and academic e-mail to his phone, has a ton of pictures on there--in short his life is on his iPhone.

    I don't need a shopping list app--I have pen and paper.

    I don't need GPS--I got divorced as I was tired of a woman telling me where to go.

    The last thing I need is another means to access Brown Cafe.

    I have a Samsung Convoy. It makes and receives phone calls, texts and pictures. I don't worry about it getting damaged at work.

    I am sure that I may eventually get a smart phone but until then I am content with my basic phone.
    Anyone can Google.
