I want to get a blue tooth, but I really don't use my cell phone that much...have a friend that has one and she loves it. It looks neat on her ear and is a pretty color too. I saw a woman at the medical center walking around and it looked like she was talking to herself, then I realized she was talking on her cell phone and it was covered by her hair. Took me a minute to figure that out and she looked so strange talking to herself I thought. She kept talking with her hands and then looking down on the floor around her I just had to laugh. They are great to have when driving and you are hands free, just have to hit the little button in the center and you are connected. It is amazing to see how far technology has come in just a short time. Makes me wonder just how much more technical our world is going to become before too long. Just hoping I am here to see it happen....lol

You must be doing lots of driving....otherwise, you'd just be listening to whatever was on the radio... maybe ?

just got a new cell phone does everything. however, i max out at loading phone book and press a button to send a call. I have had a cell phone for about eight years? still haven't progress any further in using the rest of the system. Pretty much ready to go next step though and discontinue house land line. Presently , pay about $15.mo and never use to call out as i use the cell phone. Never max out my minutes so long distance calls are no additional charge to me. now i find out verizon is going to charge $2. mo for long distance to land line phones even if you do not make a long distance phone call. If you do make long distance calls charges will go against the first $2. fee. verizon says you do not need the land line number to keep fios broadband and tv which i have. they have "no land line" called "dry loop" which i understand drops the charges for your monthly land line. I have yet to pull the plug as the cell phones i previously owned were not very reliable for battery storage, this new one runs four days without a charge. I have never experience dropped calls. It is tough to cut old habits, i feel secure with land line back up so i will procrastinate for another month or two. g
