Anyway, here's what it looks like:
As you can plainly see, it's not very fancy. Bare bones, in fact. I think of it as my way of sticking it to The Man.
(By the way, I found the image on Google; that's not my hand.)
In other technology news, I recently installed Mozilla's Firefox Web browser after a negative experience with Microsoft's new IE beta. I recommend it; the advantages are subtle, but the overall ease-of-use is worth the download. (Sticking it to The Man, baby!)

That's great Mac. Now people (THEY) can (keep better track of you, keep you under surveillance) get a hold of you more easily. That's it. Nice phone by the way.

I still have problems imagining that not having a cellphone is all that inconvenient. In exceptional circumstances, they're awfully nice, but those are too rare to be worth mentioning.
I think I may end up being that last person alive without one. Actually, I do own one, but haven't had it activated or charged in years now.
As time goes on, I hate them more and more, despite not using one. It's because they make telephone conversations very difficult. The sound quality tends to be poor, often bordering on unintelligible, and I get tired of say "what?" a dozen times before being hung up on. Often, I find myself just pretending to understand what someone's saying so we can get the call over with. When I've complained about this to my cellphone-loving friends, they all claim that their service isn't like that, and they're all wrong.
Between cellphones and sales calls, telephones have become one of the top 5 irritants in my life. God, how I've come to hate them.

JohnFen--
I feel your pain. I would have gone with a landline -- in fact, I'd already agreed to pay the connection fee -- but I discovered that my new apartment doesn't have a functioning jack. That was the final straw.
In any case, I'm not a "phone person" and never will be. No protracted cellphone conversations for me, especially in public!
