Yeah but do you use it to make calls? - Page 2

I still have the basic RAZR, and even I use this thing as more of a techno gadget than a phone. Text messaging mostly, and, for some reason, the alarm clock has become an essential part of my life :P

Don't really see the problem with using our new gadgets this way though. I never liked talking on phones too much anyway.

Blackberry App World is the best! I have Pandora, Call manager. an app that checks flight and travel info, one that combines msn, aol and jabber. Messenger is great and RxPro helps me every day. As a person with both cardiac disease and diabetes in the family I have apps to help with my fitness and health regimes as well.

My iPhone is used for everything. Calling, texting, internet, music.

Some iPhone apps are not safe

stay away from iJiggle

I use it as a phone as I have no landline. I barely have any apps on it at all, I don't have time to fiddle around with games and whatever else is on there. I use it primarily for calls and text messaging and I use the email function quite a lot too.

I have no idea how anyone listens to music on that thing, the battery life is atrocious.

Question for those that own the iPhone; how much is your monthly bill?

deep · 05-21-2009, 05:46 PM

right now my ATT bill is around 150, I think

of course, 60 of that is for a wireless usb for my laptops, I use about once a month.

before I got it,
I think I was paying around 85,
with roll over minutes, I can really talk as much as I want.

I may only have a 2000 a month text plan. I rarely text.

RedRocksU2 · 05-21-2009, 07:20 PM

Good lord.

$30 alone for the data plan, right?

anitram · 05-21-2009, 08:45 PM

I pay $60/month but I only have 300 weekday minutes + unlimited evenings (after 6 pm) and unlimited weekends. However I'm only getting 1 GB of data...the main reason for that is that since the firm provides unlimited data on the Blackberry (Bold), there is little incentive for me to have a huge data plan on my personal phone.
