They get you hooked on Smartphones, then they
start raising Data use pricing.
I wish someone would bring back the old time phonebooth;the REAL old ones
where you could sit down,close the door,and talk without others able to
listen in. then we would not have to hear THEM yammer,and they would not be
walking around not looking where they're going.
I am a heavy cell user but I also know that technology doesn't trump
basic courtesy and manners.
I find it really annoying to be assaulted by folks who are mannerless.
If I am at a service the phone is *off*. If I go to a movie the phone is
*off*. If I am at a restaurant the phone is on vibrate so I can see who
is calling but I will never answer it. If important I will walk out into
the lobby and return the call.
