    Motorola Droid RAZR here, would be happy to ditch it & go back to a 'dumb' flip phone that just texts & makes calls.

    Samsung Galaxy SIII. Love it!

    ETA: I also have VoIP for the home phone with free long-distance. I use ViaTalk and I think it costs me around $13/month for a boat-load of features.

    I have a Galaxy S3, and we do VOIP ( Magic Jack, cheap!) for a land line at the house, but nobody outside of immediate family has that number. I use the smart features more than I thought I would, mostly information and navigation (when outside my normal 'hood).

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    At first I never had a cell,never needed it.
    Now with family having medical issues and me not being home a lot I had needed to be able to be contacted for emergencies.
    Nothing fancy just a dumb phone.I think I'm one of the few left that still uses the nextel 2 way.It worked great back when I was working in NY,saved a lot of wait time in the shop.
    FHUGETABOUDIT!!!
