Just the other day i was walking through the mall Christmas shopping when i noticed all these people with smart phones.... I understand the day when a executive, a lawyer, or a business man had a palm pilot or a blackberry because he really needed it, but today I see teenagers, mothers, even the elderly with these smart phone that they really don't need. I have a simple Cricket phone.... it makes calls, takes pictures and sends messages and has a full key board, and it works fine. I just don't understand what people need all that technology, do you really need to update your status on Facebook about what your eating in the mall food court, or do you have to tell all your friends who's ex boyfriend they spotted in the mall with a new chick, not really. Maybe I'm just old fashion but i think its a waste of money to have all this garbage on your phone. Just the other day I had a co-worker ask me how much i was spending on my wireless phone, i told him forty five dollars flat. You have seen how big his eyes open when I made this statement when he replied that he was spending around eighty nine dollars a month with AT&T and was locked in for two years. I bet he regrets being swiped up by the hoopla of smart phones, I know that I wont. I just feel people could put there money to better use, for instance there's people waiting for the bus but are holding a smart phone, why not invest that money to get a car to get them off the bus...... or to at least get some new shoes. Just remember the next time you go to walk into an apple store or any cellular store for that matter, ask yourself....do I really need all that stuff on my phone?
