In reply to the discussion: Tell me why I need a smart phone [View all]MrMickeysMom
(20,453 posts)35. I will not tell you that, hedgehog...
I have a Credo cell phone that I can text upon, input phone numbers and push the speaker phone so that I can talk while driving (try not to do that much). Other than that, I can wait until I'm home to use my MacBook Pro for DU, or Skyping my bro/sis/friends.
I have a garden, work, outdoors that I hike in, neighbors that I know and help, kids in my neighborhood who I occasionally guide on the side. When my home renovation is done soon, I'll be outside at night sipping a few before the seasons change
I WATCH the seasons change.
Now, I just can't see that I need a smart phone for that, yes?
