    I even remember once, after working for a while in New York, I took off with a backpack for a slow trip round Latin America. In San Cristobal de Las Casas in southern Mexico, I sat in a chair on a hotel verandah, and heard a phone ring. It's not for me, I thought, and settled back in the chair. It can't be for me, nobody can call me now. Bliss! But now loads of people can call me any time.

    And I don't really feel a need for mobile porn.
    I concur.

    oh it's not a good sign that I've had tiffs with this phone already within 90 minutes is it? It's a good phone I'm sure but I'm just wondering what do I really need it for? 95% of its use will be calling and texting. Then again, other pay monthly deals are not much cheaper.

    Just got a fancy phone through the post and 90 minutes later I'm already tired of effing around with it.

    Maybe I just need to have a simple nokia pay as you go like I used to enjoy.

    These new phones will just make me reliant and hooked on them for no particular reason. The facebook app has already annoyed me I don't want to know everyone's silly updates as soon as I look at my phone. My phone used to be my personal space.

    discuss?
    Then delete the app, FFS..
