Apparently I was the last American not to have a cell phone. Congress sent me a letter saying that I was really holding the nation back technologically and economically and that I should get with the program. So yesterday I finally broke down and bought a Wal-Mart Trac phone with their unlimited plan. Seriously though, with my promotion I am going to be on the road a bit more and it will be good if my staff and family can get a hold of me as needed.
The nice thing about the Trac Phone is that Wal-Mart has some very respectable phones (I went with a Samsung model pictured at right,think of it as a mini faux-Blackberry) and no service contract is required. Additionally the unlimited plan is only $45 per month which is significantly cheaper than anything I could find in my area for an unlimited phone and web plan. With the speed at which technology changes the last time I had a cell phone was the technology equivalent of the Hoover administration, so considering that phone looked like this, it was probably time for an upgrade.
In fairness to Nokia, the old phone did have Snake and I have yet to find a single game built in to the new phone.
