One day some moron will discover that mobile phones [cell phones] are designed to 'communicate' not to have pathetic cameras included, ring 'Ave Maria' or play Donkey Kong on.

All the world wants in a phone is range, clarity and reliability....the rest is Marketeer's crap designed/invented by the ponytail brigade....)

Jafo might think different, but I enjoy playing my games on break at work on my cell phone. Beats bringing a gameboy to work.

My attitude towards cellphones until I blewout a disc in my back last fall and was concerned about driving long distances and getting stuck out in the boonies with my back all seized up.

...just wondering when (if) Stardock will be making skinning products for these phones

I used to thing mobile phones were pointless - till like Essencay, I needed one...now I just take keeping it with me for granted.

...and, since it has to be with me, it would be useful if it did more than just made and recieved calls - but instead of getting a wizzy phone, I have a Palm Tungsten T to do the fancy stuff and just use Blue Tooth to use the phone for the comms...it works for me, though it takes 2 pocket spaces instead of one that way
