What’s Your Weapon of Choice?

Phone

So Heather’s phone bit the dust. Done. Kapoot.
Why am I blogging about this?
Because every-time she drops/loses/sits on her skinny little Motorola Razr, my Crackberry 8700c suddenly disappears.
Yea.
I Live on my phone. Work on my phone. Email on my phone. Google on my phone. Have an unhealthy relationship with my phone.
I need my phone back.
In order to pull that off, I need to get the wife a new phone.
I might need to Live on my phone, Work on my phone, Email on my phone, Google on my phone, and Have an unhealthy relationship with my phone.
But all my wife needs to do on her phone is TALK to Jacinda (Hale-Yeah’s wifey), Tammy, and Angela for 1600 minutes a month, and not answer my calls when I really need her. ;)
What are you guys talking on? Help a brotha out.

    Papa Los!

    I’m reasonably fond of my Treo 700W. Mp3′s, podcasting (I convert to Mp3 in iTunes) checking scores, email, notes, pics, video, etc. I keep trying to use a “normal” phone, but keep going PDA. I listen to the Ragamuffinsoulcast drops and a few other cool DL’s when I hit the trail at lunch. Aahhhh! 3 miles of audio bliss!

    My wife uses the LG VX8100 that also takes pics and plays music, but she usually has me transfer the files for her. She might be able to figure my Treo out, but she probably wouldn’t bother. Lucky me! ; )

    My kids have a Motorola E310, Nokia 6155 and a Kyocera KX414 respectively. Thank you Lord for the family share plan!

    I got the 8700c also, but wife has got a razr. She’s lost a phone too before, so I’d get her the cheapest phone with a speakerphone. I had a Siemens that got really good reception once.

    I would reccomend a Blackberry 3110 from Cingular or a tin can and a very long string.

    Ooops I mean a 7130c

    I’m talkin’ on my broke-@$$ LG flip phone I got for free. Threw it while being an @$$ and broke the display. I have to remember where folks are in my speed dial or remember their numbers….I suck because I don’t buy protection plans…..

    ooooooooo…iPhone….ooooooooooooo

    The cheapest Sprint phone I can get my hands on.

    I got one of those rotary phones.

    By the way, I know a few people with those razr phones ….. they all hate ‘em.

    One other by the way: the wife dropped of a box of clothes for Losiah at your office.

    Oh. That was you guys? Ha!!! I had no idea

    Blackberry 7105t. Hate it! and T-mobile too.

    The wife has the cheepest flip phone t-mobile has. Its so cheep I cant find a name. The battery lasts about a week with no use. Cuz the wife doesn’t call anyone.

    well she loses it pretty fast yah? Remember Night at the Roxbury? Remember the punishment cell phones? One of those baby. Not gonna end up in any back pockets i promise ya.

    n the real side… the LG8300 is pretty cool, mp3 playback, 1.3mp camera, bluetooth, stereo speakers, and does’t sit comfortable in the backpocket, hence no sitting on the phone no more!

    Best of luck bro

    Blackberry Pearl from T-mobile. I like it a lot better than my 7105t.

    Cingular 8125 Pocket PC……thinking about a black jack

  25. Jinx 7 December 2006 at 11:45 am #

    Treo 650….but looking for something new. I can’t keep the same thing for too long, I get bored. But I love the Treo 650, wish I could get a 700 on Cingular. Anyone experienced both…Blackberry better than Palm Treo?

    Since your such an Apple fanboy (and I mean that in the nicest possible way) I would say that it’s pretty clear that the iPhone (or whatever they’re going to call it) is going to come out a Macworld. Until then, see if Cingular can give your wife a loaner phone till after the 2nd week of January. For what it’s worth, I’m sort of in the same boat, my wife’s jankie Motorola hasn’t been working right for month. I too, am looking.
