If by "no frills phone" you mean "not a phone that requires a data plan", then that's what I have.

Do they have nofrills in the states?



Pretty sure we don't, which is a shame because food prices are pretty nuts for anything that doesn't have high fructose corn syrup in it. More cheap grocery stores pls.

 I have a smart phone for my smart-assed smart mouth.

 It's a Droid; but not the one you're looking for. Move along.

 It's funny now how your phone is a full-fledged computer, but your computer isn't a phone.

I have a Sony Ericsson Cingulair phone.  No data plan.  No texting.  I just use it as a mopho.  We also have a rotary phone in our kitchen.  But I thought we were talking about homophones.  Maybe, Xolik can give us some input...

What they are trying to tell you is that you don't have enough options.

Yeah, that's kind of my category too, so I haven't voted yet.  I mean, it has an allegedly 'smart card' in it and can access the web if I want to pay exorbitant rates and use it over a lame interface which I don't even know if it's supported anymore.  But then again, I don't believe it has an operating system (in terms of Windows mopho, palm, android, iphone, etc.)

Oh shoot, did I forget the multimedia phones? I guess those with such phones would like to be privileged with a category of your own........well........I might be able to do that......
