I hereby propose a government program that helps to level the playing field by providing free smart phones to disadvantaged whites.

[skr]

But only if they pay the monthly bill, too!

[cripplecreek]

Falling behind?

I don’t have any interest in them nor do I have the disposable money for crap like that. (Besides, I’m apparently a “toothless hillbilly”)

We must not have a Smart Phone Gap.

Maybe it is because some groups are more susceptible to advertising hype. I am not sure how an overpriced electronic trinket would improve my life as compared to a more reasonably priced electronic trinket.

[Doogle]

I don’t have time to waste other people’s money.

[Bobalu]

The smarter you are the less need you have for a smart phone.

[skeeter]

I suspect it has to do with the comparative age of the demographic. Whites are an older group.

[Venturer]

I wonder how they get this figure. No one asked my race when I got a phone. Good thing too.

[mrsmel]

Well, we don’t need them as much to coordinate flash mob looting sprees and racist attacks. I think the Obama free welfare phone comes with an app for that pre-installed.

I’m happy to see the CAUCASIANS being labeled as a “victim” for once. We’re always the bad guys and that was getting old. It’s good to be one of the “disenfranchised”. Especially when it comes to telephones. I can’t stand those things. I get off at five everyday to get away from of those things.

I don’t need, or want, a smart phone. I have an iPod touch, iPad, two notebooks, and a computer. Just give me a dumb phone built to Apple’s design sensibilities.

[Sooth2222]

I don’t even turn my dumb phone on most of the time. It’s yet another distraction.

[shoff]

Could it be that some start with a free phone,service with texting and others have to pay for everything including the first groups service? It is a simple matter to upgrade from your free Obama phone.

Shiny objects always appeal to stupid people.

You will see that when you see Ms White USA Pageant on the All White Network. I hope taxpayers didn't fund this survey.

I have no idea what I would do with a Smart phone.
I guess I am a retired techie.
I spent my life in radio electronics, and was the first cellphone agent in my Tennessee county, back when they were the new gizmos.
Now, I have a basic Nokia phone that I bought in Slovakia, around 2007, but still ignorant of all the features. I have to have my new Philippine wife, as of tomorrow, do the advanced functions for me.
I am happy just to have it to send or receive a short text, such as messaging my pedicab driver to pick up a case of San Miguel (beer) from the distributor ;)

[doorgunner69]

Never had one, never had any interest in one. But then, liberals call me a knuckle dragging neanderthal, so that works...........

I feel so deprived, not being part of the airhead social network thing........woe is me.

[Irish Eyes]

That is because we can’t afford them.

[Will88]

I’m not sure how smart it is to make use of an inferior system with a tiny screen and tiny keyboard if one has a desktop, or laptop with far more capability and ease of use.

Smart phones would be fine for someone on the go extensively, or who does not have any of the larger and more powerful systems.

Just a good basic cell phone would meet the needs of most with access to larger computers. I have a semi-smart phone I can use to access the web for weather and such if needed, but wouldn’t waste time with it when I have access to better systems.

[proxy_user]

I don’t have a smartphone.

But I do have 1500 AT&T and 1000 Verizon. I therefore collect about $8000 a year in dividends from smartphone users.

Maybe they should call them dumbphones? Hey, guys, your former money is in my brokerage account!
