    Nokia 3285. I don't play games on it, and basically it's just for emergency use. If any of my friends want to get in touch with me, they know how. Oh yeah, powered by Verizon.

    Frostmage, in many (public grade and high) schools here in the US, Cell Phones are illegal, so consider yourself lucky if you're allowed to carry one. I know little about the way your schools operate, though.

    Big B, Nokia phones are the cheapest, that's why everyone uses them.

    I have a Nokia 5160, with a Chinese dragon faceplate my kids bought me for Christmas. It has red and yellow swirly buttons, and a battery that flashes colored lights periodically for no apparent reason. I finally beat my daughter's score in Snake.

    I give the number only to people I want to talk to at any time -- the kids' schools, my parents, etc. This is important because I often don't answer my land line, which would be irresponsible if the kids were hemorrhaging somewhere and couldn't reach me.

    I got given an old Ericson 2 weeks ago - and I use it a lot already. But I still think that they are evil evil things. Nice to see that there are still people without them. Resist the evil!! :tie:

    A Samsung SGH-NI05. 11 games, from Blackjack to Sniper to some racing game. Plus an internet browser, though Madison WI doesn't have the necessary local infrastructure for it to work. It does work back home in Chicago though.

    Motorola T180. It's an older phone. I don't use it very much however. I don't understand why people always want to have the latest models with the best games and such. If you want to play games you better get a gameboy or if you want to have an alarm clock, just buy a watch. I only use my mobile phone, for one thing, that is to call someone.

    Frostmage, I have to agree. Today's history lessons seemed to fly by, but now my hand is cramping... oh well....

    [​IMG] Nokia 6210. It serves as a nice SMS Spam Generator and rather expensive alarm clock. I have no idea why people would want to play games on their cellphone, but I suppose it can't be any worse than watching daytime TV...

    Nope, I don;t have one yet, but I probably will be getting one by the bewginning of next year. I tend to drive alone a lot, which sends my family into fits, so it's basically going to be a security blanket for them, and a phone I can use to call my insurance company if my truck breaks down or blows a tire...

    I have two friends who carry 3210s, Sniper ;) . One of them even bought it when it was brand new.

    The vibration stopped working on my 3310. I'm getting an Ericsson soon.
