How Attached Are You To Your Mobile Phone?

[naomi24]

I read something here about how years ago people weren’t easily contactable and it occurred to me that, whether at home or out and about, I’m rarely, if ever, without my mobile phone. Has yours become essential to you?

I suppose how 'attached' you are will depend on your particular daily live .

Loads of stuff can be done on and info kept on your phone nowadays , both work or non work related .

It is much easier to have things organised in one place rather than all over the shop

I rarely use mine but it came in handy last weekend when we didn't have any power and we couldn't use the landline.

No, don't own one.

Quite attached Naomi .. I have been known to send messages to my husband seated seperate to me on public transport ( too much shopping taking adjacent seat) .. and him looking back wearily and replying ... very funny! ;0?

I love my phone and am very attached to it. As well as calls I use it for texting, other messaging (like on Facebook in case that sounds a bit dodgy!!!), Facebook, Twitter, emails, new sites, all sorts of apps and general internet bits, my calendar is on there, I use the alarms and timer. I use the camera a lot too. Notes as well for reminders.

Some of the apps are brilliant. Even got one where some of the buses I get are GPS tracked so I can check when my bus is actually going to turn up in real time, before leaving for the bus stop.

I tend to use old phones as an MP3 player too.

I'd feel lost without it!

Hardly attached at all, really.

I have a very basic phone which is kept in the car for emergencies. I also have a smart phone but that's because it was a present, it isn't used much mainly because I keep forgetting to recharge the battery. By the time it's ready to be used the reason has usually passed. You can gather from this that my phone isn't essential to me.

Yes I'm terrible but trying to be better lol. After having to use it for work constantly until recently its become a bad habit to always have it with me wherever I am

scroll down the whole page and the 3 of them are holding their phones like grim death. now think they should be stuck at the ear - sad, as their communicatio, eye contact, interruptions and sheer pure rudeness - when one answers the phone when talking to another person. Should be banned.

I mean are these emergency calls - are the phones superglued to the hands.

Oh woe is me.

Yesterday's convenience becomes tomorrow's necessity.

Since I ask others standing next to me to ring me, so I can find mine, not very.

That's when I make sure I've got mine with me. You must live in a much nicer part of the world than me...
