    Or cell phones, for you Murrikans.

    Which ones do you folks have? Which ones do you folks want? Which OS do you like? Et cetera.

    I have this baby here. Small and underpowered, yes, but it works.

    Windows Phone, guys. It's awesome.

    I have a palm pre. I'm posting from it now. I'm happy with this phone. It does what I need it to do.

    I have a terrible terrible Nokia. It's very durable though.

    My dad dropped his Nokia on the sidewalk once and broke it. The phone was okay, though.

    With the joke out of the way, I have an android phone. Don't remember what it's called, but I love it.

    Ah, the joys of own-brand smartphones. It does the job, and I barely use it anyway.

    so, I have Samsung Galaxy mini, with Android on it.
    Even dough it's small, it's very slick (and I got it new for 100kn (about 20USD in T-Mobile, no contract)).
    It serves it's purpose.
    oh, and tested, it's resistant to falling on different types of ground.

    I have an old Nokia N91. works just fine for what I use it for, which is listening to music and once in a blue moon call someone.

    I have a Motorola Droid Razr with Android 4.0 on it. Does just about anything I'd ever want. Battery life is decent, but web browsing kills it in like 2 hours >.>

    I have an Android Galaxy S at the moment, but I'm hopefully going to own a Samsung Galaxy Note soon. It's awesome, like a cross between a tablet and a smartphone.

    I'm almost 23 and I've never had a cell phone before. I would probably just want an iPhone. From what my friend tells me, Androids aren't that great, but everyone's got their opinion.

    You know how you can buy either an expensive box of brand-name Cheerios or the much less expensive knockoff, which tastes exactly the same most of the time? It's kind of like that. Apple's products are way more expensive than most of their market alternatives because you're paying for the name. It's THE iPhone. THE APPLE iPhone.

    Although, to be fair, the iPhone's app market is superior to the app market for Android phones.

    Well, I've got no idea where you plucked that supposition from.

    I have a mobile phone... it calls people and sends text messages. I don't need it to do anything else. :sigh:

    My brother has had 5 iphones over 3 years because they keep breaking. I've had my "crappy" phone for almost 10 years and it still works fine.
