And, what's more, I'm damn glad that I do. I am not looking forward to the day when I finally am forced to give in and get myself a smartphone. No, not one bit.

I'm still using one of those Motorola phones, the ones with the base you put under your car seat and the handset attatched by a coiled cord.

You can't. 3 watt analogue bag phones required an early version of CDMA that hasn't been supported since... 2003?

I still have a dumb phone. I'm in front of a computer far too much as it is.

My favorite part of Better Call Saul are the antique phones, like the Samsung 3500. Makes me nostalgic for my RadioShack days. Almost.

The only time I use my phone is when I'm trying to 'blend' into a street scene while urinating in public.

At home, we actually still use a black rotary phone from about 1965. Thing doubles as a home defense weapon / spare hammer.
