Nate and I have been technologically slow, perhaps even impaired until recently. We got a laptop for graduate school a few months ago. Our first. And we just got Blackberries. They are like a phone, mp3, organizer, and computer all in one. We needed to renew our T-Mobile contract so we upgraded; they were practically free. Nate did days of research on phones and liked these the best. They are pretty cool, that is after all the frustration of trying to figure everything out. We just added text messaging to our plan for the first time. Hope they last. Sometimes high tech means high maintenance.
Luckily our old phones (Nokia 6103) still work if we need them. These have lasted 2 1/2 years so far. So if you are looking for a trusty phone, I recommend them. Mine has been dropped from two stories twice. Been through Tanner, which is saying a lot. He threw mine in the bath tub, with water in it, and it still works.
