    When I first moved into my own apartment 10 or so years ago, I decided to get a landline even though I already had a mobile. Then I was like, why the smurf did I do that? And ripped it out of the wall with a hot fury.

    I have a HTC Sensation (which was my first smartphone) with a big ole crack over the screen. It doesn't really impair functionality but it's annoying as heck, plus it's getting old and slow as hell. I have my eyes set on the HTC One for my next phone. I'd usually prefer to switch to another brand, but the One just seems too great to pass up.

    This was my favourite phone model from 5 years ago, I lost it and was forced to upgrade to a Nokia blackberry thing no touch screen, I still have it. Just doesn't work in Australia.

    I am not so good with technology (I have killed/lost 13 mobiles in the past 4 years alone. One I even managed to bake). So I tend to buy crappy and cheap versions. My last mobile was donated from a friend it was likely from the 90's: a small chunky cell with 6 number buttons and a T9 text system. Forget pictures or internet. After losing that I grabbed a 30$ android blackberry thingy. Qwerty keyboard and touch screen.

    Boldly go.

    You want the One. The One is awesome.

    ..... It's even more awesome now that it's dropped to $99. Lol

    My parents disconnected the land line they've had since 1989 about six months ago. I felt like the family pet had died.

    I had a flip phone with no camera for the longest time and a couple of years ago bit the bullet and picked up an HTC Incredible 2. I'll probably pick up a Galaxy S4 within the next month.

    We have a landline, it's really useful for long phonecalls.

    The last time we had a hurricane roll through it took out power for three weeks and we didn't have cell phone service for a week. Everybody had their land lines but all had cordless phones so the handset died after a couple of days. xD

    We had a corded phone and were the only ones in the neighborhood that could make calls for several days.

    I hate smart phones, but it seems like that's all they have these days.

    I can't help but hope that you left a whole lot of really smug messages on everyone's voicemails.

    I did a T-Mobile flip phone for the longest time. Back in the day it was no contract and $40/month for unlimited talk and text. Simple and easy.

    Working for a major phone company, I usually have one phone or another signed out to test - currently have the Samsung s4 - I like it but it's not as big as the note and therefore it sucks a bit.

    I personally am currently using an iphone 4s until September when I can get a free one from work to put onto my sweet plan - I'm thinking Android because I had a bold 9900 until a couple of months ago when a friend gave me this one and of all the platforms, Android is my favourite (emulation hello)

    HTC can smurf right off and so can Nexus phones.. It's not that they're not cool I just don't like various things about them (htc with their ultrapixels or whateverthesmurf lololol)
