I also see them as a adult pacifier that they stare into while your talking to them and go berserk when they lose them or leave the house without their stupid phone.

Don't get me wrong, if used correctly they are great, like keeping in touch with family
up north, checking in at the airport or hotel, checking prices etc.

Sorry, just my opinion
Time for you to do a WHOLE LOT of research because you can get cell used phones for $50 or new phones for the same that JUST MAKES CALLS and service plans for $5-10 month for voice only or less for metered call plans. You don't need a "smart"phone but a cell phone today is ALMOST a must have. Sounds like just a trollish post.
