I am thinking of getting a cell phone to replace my beloved ENV3. What is the Best OS for Privacy, Connectivity and Reliability?

Most memory? My emails are currently with time Warner with accounts that go back 30 years. I run two businesses out of email and phone currently, how do I make the switch?

I am not a fan of clouds.

What do you recommend?

Who would I get to set it up?

“So how do medical pros get privacy with hipaa requirements and phones??”

They don’t.

Set up a VoIP server in your bathroom. Use a mifi hot spot to connect back to it remotely and make and receive all calls over a landline connected to a modem in that bathroom. You need 1024 AES encryption and use 3 decoder wheels to talk in various code. Pretty simple.

Do I get the decoder ring too??

Time Warner? Start there. Don’t use your internet provider for email.

Cellphones were around in 1996——I got my first one in 1994.

I’m a very satisfied customer of Consumer Cellular. They offer all sorts of phones, flip, Android and Apple, on e-z pay plans and their US-based customer service is second to none. No weird accents that are hard to understand. Just plain English. Outstanding company, IMHO.

do you use it?

[Chickensoup]

god I miss them.

Notice that many new films are set in the 90s to end run around the mess that cellphones made in our lives.

So all the Hipaa drama continues to be a lie?

Didn’t I get one of those $1.95 magic decoder rings FRom Captain Midnight back in the day?

Or did I have to send them some of my mom’ S&H Greenstamps?

I disremember.
