I don't like text conversations. I do use news update sites and FreeRepublic on mine if I'm in an airport or somewhere else that time passing is valuable.

I have desperately needed mine x 2 in the last 15 years when my car broke out on the highway. These 2 times having it was a God-send.

Otherwise, not having it is no cause for anxiety.

“I don’t like text conversations. “

No doubt. 10 minutes of texting to do maybe 1 minute of talking. I’ve heard millenials say they don’t like to talk on their phones, I’m guessing for privacy.

I think treating smartphone-related neck and wrist/thumb problems will be very lucrative in the years ahead.
