At least you have a computer and internet. Good job.

Carry on.

Good point, I forgot about that.

Do they have Vonage out there Amber? That way you could have a phone.

I've never heard of it. Why is it special? I'll have my housephone back by the end of this month. And I don't really need a cell phone. Actually, I don't need one at all....

Vonage is a phone service that runs off your broadband connection. It's pretty inexpensive too. I looked into it for my business and fax line but figured if I was on the phone and computer at the same time, it probably wouldn't make too much sense. My fax machine always seems to ring when I'm on the phone too.

That's pretty cool! But from what you just said, it's like dial up, can't be on both at the same time, right? That's not that big a deal, though - think I'll look into it!!

I have that one too. It's great! Most of the pictures I take turn out really bad, but some are good. It's just really useful to have a camera wherever you go, in case you see something interesting that you want to remember.

I have an LG and it's been a great phone. It has no bells and whistles, just the basics. Makes calls and has voicemail. That's all I need. I don't take many pics so no use for a camera for me.

Go to http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/ and check out the reviews (by cell phone users) for just about every phone that is out there.

When I bought my MOTOROLA RAZR I was told to check them out. Not only are the people who post there brutally honest in their opinions, you can learn a lot about phone options (they even have a glossary if you don't know what the hell they are talking about--- has come in very useful for me!) and what new phones are coming on the market soon.

It is the definative source for cell phone decisions.
