Cellphones now adays can play games, play music, give you directions, show movies, and fiddle fuck around the internet... but they CANT KEEP A FUCKING CALL!!!!!

Seriously... I don't want a phone that can redirect satalites in space.. I just want to make a call that doesn't get dropped. Fuck games, Thats why I got a laptop.. Fuck music, thats why I got an IPod. Fuck directions, thats why I check mapquest before I leave. Fuck movies, thats why I got a portable dvd.

Its a fucking phone.. It should be able to make phonecalls AS A PRIORITY... Not this other shit... :mfinger:
 
I concur. These battery-sucking turds that you buy now suck. I have a 2/3 year old monochrome cell phone that can make phone calls and store numbers and such. Works great, and even though the battery is a few years old, it still lasts for days on end with no charging needed. I don't need or want to watch television on my phone. Internet might be nice to have if I were stuck somewhere and I wanted to check digg or WTF, but I think I can actually do that on my current phone. This television stuff is crap. You know what I also hate? Amp'd mobile commercials. Talk about utter shit. I don't want to watch some fat, effeminate dude caress and kiss his phone, nor do I buy some wealthy couple singing about their "love" for the plan. Fuck amp'd and their dumb FUCKING COMMERCIALS. FUCK YOU AMP'D SUCK MY DICK! YOU HEAR THAT? SUCK IT! :sword:
 
Unlike you, in Bangkok everyone buys expensive phones and switch when they get old. I'm the only one at school with an old Nokia.... I do get sad sometimes cause I can't spend $200 to $500 for a phone like my friends. But, I don't even talk that much so it doesn't bother me that much.
 
Quite honestly, people who pay $200 to $500 on a new phone are stupid. I've had about three phones, and right now I have a $20 phone that I got like, a year ago, and it's still the best phone I've ever had. :thumbsup:
 
My phone cost a dollar with my phone plan and it takes care of all my calling needs.

I don't want a swiss army phone. I think they are annoying.
 
This is exactly why I don't like cellphones. I hardly like using house phones, to much hassle not to be able to talk to someone face-to-face.
 
i just cant stand it.. If I need to calculate the hyperspace insertion coordinates for a galaxy class star destroyer... I'll buy a friggin sidekick.. its meant to do all that shit... Otherwise just let me make a call!
 
I've only bought one cell phone in my entire life. It was a very nice model that only cost me about $100 (after the rebate), about 3 years ago. I was starting up a landscaping business at the time, and I needed it because it is really good for clients to call up when you're not at home for any "special" work they needed done. I could also use it to take real nice pics of the jobs I did, which saved me five to six hundred dollars for a digi-camera. Another nice feature it had was the ability to voice record reminder, so I could also use it as an alarm clock. Unfortunately, all my tools were stolen just before I had the chance to buy insurance for all my tools and stuff so my business got sunk on the fact that I didn't have the $1,250 to go re-coup on everything yet.

After that I shut the service off and it became just an alarm clock for me, and it worked great over the next year. It was so awesome waking up to myself shouting "HEY!! GET UP!... HEY!! TIME TO GET UP!!!". But then about almost a year ago I woke up one morning with my phone going off. I shut it off, and made my way to the bathroom. I set my phone on top of the tank as I was about to take my morning constitutional. My roommate at the time must not have said anything about having toilet troubles the night before (because the tank lid was at an angle and I didn't notice), because all of a sudden the phone just slid off the top of the tank and, sploosh!!

A strange white bright light came on the phone, and it wouldn't stop vibrating. I tried to shut it off, but it was unresponsive so it just ran dead. I threw it on the charger, but after it charged back up and I turned it on, it just did the same thing. I put it away and completely forgot about it until about 6 months ago when I found it while I was packing up since me and my new wife were moving into a new place together. I threw it on the charger and waited about 6 hours. I took it off the charger and pressed the power button. The beginning start up screen came up, but then it shut off and it started doing that same shit all over again. Damn, I wanted my alarm clock back!

So in summary, I think cell phones are great if you're running your own business. But otherwise they're really no use, unless you want to pay $100 for an alarm clock.
 
I agree about the cell phone suckage, I want my phone to be reliable when I want to make a call. However, The niftiest extra feature I've seen is on my friend Miguel's phone. It's a cheap 20 dollar pay as you go phone, but it has a built in flashlight. It's the only phone I've seen with a flashlight, but he says it's saved his ass a number of times, and I was with him one of those times. Still, being able to make a call is a nice feature on a PHONE!
 
Hoo-rah for cheap phones! I use an old school motorola myself, doesn't get all that great of reception, but that's more the provider than anything. In the case of cell phones, you just don't get what you pay for 95% of the time.
 
Holy shit, somebody who actually shares my views! That's why I own one of these:

Nokia 6061. No camera, no music, it just makes calls. Damn good calls.
