...ipods, etc..? It seems like wherever you go people can't seem to stay away from their cell phones, text messaging, ipods, laptops, iphones, digital cameras, blackberries, dingle berries and so forth! lol :) It's like they are addicted and don't know how to spell or socialize with others anymore! I am 31 and never got into all these things..all I have is a desktop computer and a simple cell phone which is turned off all the time and used only for emergencies..I don't feel the need for anything else! Why are people so attached to these things! What do you think of those who don't use them? I can understand if you need a laptop when you travel and a cell phone for business purposes but other than that I don't get it and I never will be a junkie for this stuff! It is an addiction just like alchohol or food or drugs..if they can't use it they freak out! If I want to talk to someone I will call them! What are your thoughts on this? Just my observations! Thanks and take care! :)

Holy cow I thought I was the only one without all that crap!

It blows my mind how people are so attached to those kind of things. I really can not understand how people make remarks like "not being able to live without a cell phone or my dingleberry fritz phone/laptop/computer/iphone thingy". I mean really, we lived without them for the last 10,000 years, I'm sure you can survive without it for a few hours or days!

I have a landline phone, a laptop, and my camera equipment. And that is the extent of my electronic device list. No cell phone, no iphone, no mp3 player, or any of that useless crap. If I want to get a hold of someone, I call them and SPEAK to them! I don't text them! That's so ridiculous!

I'd like to personally see these people that brag about their incredible texting speed type that fast with a real keyboard, using correct spelling, punctuation, and grammar.

Wow...rant much...
I'm sorry if I didn't really answer your question there!
