I think I\'m going to be the most anti-cellphone person here. I don\'t have one, and I have no plans on getting one. When I\'m away from home or from my office, I don\'t want to be reached by anyone. I spend my workdays answering the phone, and I can\'t stand it. I dread hearing that damn thing ringing... When I\'m away from work I don\'t want anyone calling me, and I\'m happy to find a pay phone when I need to make a call.
People in Los Angeles are the worst cellphone users in the world. It seems these idiots use them to entertain themselves for every spare moment of their lives. If they\'re waiting in line ANYWHERE, waiting at the laundrette, shopping at the supermarket, etc... they call someone to fill up those vacant seconds in their life. These are people who can\'t be bothered to plan ahead enough to check a map before leaving home, bring a magazine, god forbid - bring a book to read. They have probably not read a book in 20 years. What sad pathetic lives.
Some technology does not improve our society, and I think that cellphones are an example. With the loud annoying ringing disturbing other people (especially when they let it ring while they check to see who\'s calling), the possibility of car crashes and brain cancer, and the awful sound quality of these phones... I\'ll stick with landlines, and as seldom as possible.
