After 3 long long years...this guy is going to have a cell phone.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Yes, I've been without a cell phone for 3 years. An actual Cell phone. The status quo ridiculing will be gone. No I did not give into pressure. I just bid my time and waited.. Patiently. A cell phone is a luxury to some, it was my case unfortunately. I learned the importance of them, not like before, where I didn't care and upgraded every 6 months without thinking about it. 

 

 

The constant banter of "Wait, you don't have a cell phone?!" followed by laughter incredulous of this fact...will be no more. I have purchased the phone I wanted as well. The Xperia Z2. I just have to wait one week for shipping. 

 

The little things in life man, they matter. To me it means a whole lot. To you, well this is nothing. :D I am ecstatic and honestly stoked to finally get some of these girls digits instead of their emails...xD

 

 

So yeah..any of you, call meh. ;*

But seriously. You waited three years to get the Xperia Z2?

[Ivan The Awesome]

Well no the xperia z2. Just a phone in general. This was the only time I had enough cash and the time was right to get a cel. Just happened to get the Z2.

How can you survive these days without one?

I'm thinking of cutting my cell plan and trying to get by on WiFi alone (iMessaging, Facetime calls, Skype, whatever)

 

Any survival tips?

Get a landline with local calling only.  I think they are fairly cheap, maybe 15-20 bucks a month.

I'm kinda a vagabond right now though. Lived in 3 totally different places since the beginning of the year, don't plan on settling down for at least 5 years or so.

With VoIP phone systems, you can take them with you.

 

I looked into it when I thought I might be moving to Australia because I still needed a U.S. phone number for work.

 

Basically, once you set your phone system up, the phone number will work anywhere that you have the VoIP system plugged into an internet connection.

As in you have a phone number and a phone, but your phone service is eliminated and you get called over some sort of internet system?

This is pretty much all I did, my laptop and some cheap touch screen phone that had no service, I'd hack into peoples wifi or use my wifi at home to communicate via text messaging app, skype, and such apps. 

 

A land line will help, I was a bit of a home body these past three years so if someone needed to call me, they'd call the land line and I'd usually be home. But they would know when I'd be home or not.

I would never laugh at someone for not having a phone. Just like if someone is driving an old beat up car. We all have reasons and problems.
