Nihil Obstat Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 [quote name='pan!c139' post='1657969' date='Sep 17 2008, 11:30 PM']I text, email and IM...i'm a junkie, I know. [/quote] I email and IM and phorum post like a complete addict. Only thing I don't do is text. Probably my natural guy aversion to phones. Hate 'em. As soon as my cell contract runs out I'm actually going to downgrade, and get the most basic thing I can find. No camera, no text, no anything. Ideally I'll spend under $30 on the phone, and then buy a $10 calling card that'll last me four months. No joke, it would last at least that long.

I use Boost, myself--there should be a Canadian equivalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at it now it even seems sorta unethical. At least parts of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
