I'm a bit biasted against texting. My brother's addicted to it and it caused nothing but trouble... And worse, he has a mustang and thinks he's the world's greatest driver while he's texting... He's either going to get himself or someone else killed...I use texting to send quick messages that aren't worth the calling. Plus my texting is free while calling costs by the minute. So specifically if it is going to be a short call, (Cause just calling counts as a minute), texting is easier and cheaper for quick messages.Real men don't text. But a camera function can come in handy for stuff like catching the liscence plate of a hit and run driver if you don't have a rifle in the gun rack and ammo in the glove box.Meh. Phones are for calling. The only bonuses they need are cameras and texting.
If you need it for something like that, there's nothing wrong with having one. It's the people who think that those of us who don't have them are below them that annoy those of us who don't need the bells and whistles of a smartphone. My dumb phone serves its purpous well eough. It makes calls and has an alarmclock mode. And it helps keep my sticky note pads from blowing away when I turn the ceiling fan up in the summer.Ahh...sibling rivalry. The main reason I upgraded to a smartphone was so I can accept credit card transactions on the road...something very crucial for my business. You can't deny the benefit in that.

1: My phone can't do that.If you don't have a cell phone, how can you scan barcodes and check if you can get a cheaper deal elsewhere? :3
2: Even if my phone could do that, it wouldn't be of any use to me. I can only go to the grocery store an the dollar store and their prices are the same. The dollar store just has a wider variety of stuff.
