    I’m fine with my old flip phone.I call people,I talk,I hang up.
    I don’t know what the hell an “app” is,and don’t much care.To those who have one or more of these gadgets and can’t put hem down even long enough to go to the bathroom,have a nice life.

      I can’t hear well enough to use a cell phone. If the room is quiet and I put my land line phone on speaker, then I can talk with my kids. Or we Skype.

    I hate talking on the phone — any phone. My hearing is so bad that I miss at least half of what the other person is saying. I have resisted getting a cell phone because it would be one more stupid thing to lug around, keep track of, try not to lose, remember to recharge, etc. One day I’ll probably be forced to break down and get one, but I plan to resist as long as I can.
