What Mobile Phone (or Phones) Do you Carry
Posted in Random by Dan at 9:57 am
With a recent study finding that most iPhone users carry two Phones (using the iPhone for data a music only), it made me wonder what our readers did.
How many Phones do you carry? What phone is it? Who is your preferred carrier? Sound off in the comments.

I guess I’m on of the oddballs that just carries an iPhone. The whole point of it is that it’s a phone that can do all kinds of other stuff, so why carry another one? I would probably go with Verizon (my previous carrier) as my carrier of choice if I could, but AT&T isn’t too shabby.

I’m one of the oddballs that doesn’t carry a phone at all. If I did, it would be voice only - Id leave computing up to computers. Nothing against smart phones, they’re just not a comfortable computing experience for me, nor are they worth the cost.

I carry just my iPhone. The carrier is vip, in Croatia.
No visual voice mail, but that’s fine with me :)

I’m using my iPhone exclusively. Compare that to carrying around my old BB Pearl, iPod, and digital camera.

My old trusty iPhone 8GB and a Bang & Olufsen Serene. Usually just take the iPhone with me, though - but the B&O has great call quality, so when I’m home, and someone calls me I usually pick up on that one. And it looks nice on my desk.

Sony Ericcson V630i on Vodafone UK
Can’t see why every likes the iPhone, mine can do everything the iPhone can and costs £60. Only difference is mine has actual buttons instead of fake ones on the touthc screen, which is really horrible to use (Yes I have tried it).

Only my Sony Ericsson T650i. The iPhone would be great, but T-Mobile has the worst tariffs of the whole world. Sorry Apple, wrong partner.

Mainly the Windows Mobile variety, and occasionally an iPhone. Like them both for different reasons.
Have used BlackBerry, Nokia and SE devices, but didn’t find a strong reason to switch.

I think my HTC TyTN II is great (at&t Tilt). Does everything I need it to do and with the variety of cooked roms available, it runs like a champ! (much better than out of the box)

Before it got stolen, I carried a Motorola W490. Not nearly as nice as my (previously stolen) PEBL, but decent enough to talk and text on.

Just carry the iphone. Being able to be connected 24/7 has paid for the phone within just a few weeks. The idea of an iphone was to carry just one device and not the phone, ipod, laptop i used to lug around.

I just got a Nokia N95-3 and basically carry that everywhere along with my 16GB iPod Touch.

ETEN Glofiish X500 (Fido, Canada)
I like it because it has all features I need in one small box and what’s important for me (that the iPhone doesn’t have) is its GPS functionality which I use several times a week

I carry a t-mobile shadow, a pretty slick little workhorse of a phone if you ask me. Would get an iPhone if not on AT&T.

Blackberry 8830 (verizon)….works everywhere including trips to China. I hate to admit it, but I love it thanks to the super fast internet and instant e-mail access. For music, I pretty much only use my Slacker portable now (occasionally use my 80gb ipod).
Originally had an iPhone 8gb (I work for a design firm and boss got one for all senior management when they first came out), but quickly found that it is next to unusable in NYC thanks to ATT crappy service (I work in heart of SOHO on top floor of bldg next to Apple store and could only get service in 2 parts of office). Also, couldn’t stand that it takes about 10 minutes after you get above ground after getting off subwy for the phone to start working. Its too bad since iPhone is beautiful and I wanted it to work so bad, but with the minimum refresh time for e-mails being every 15mns (when you could get a connection) vs the instant e-mail access with the Blackberry, I had to switch to an ugly ass Blackberry. Gave my iPhone to my boss who just does text messaging since he left his iPhone in a cab again (he is on his 5th one!…and as you know you can’t insure the iPhone).
Keeping fingers crossed that either ATT will improve in NYC otherwise just going to wait until iPhones are on a better service (and have a usable amount of storage….anything less than 40gb is useless for me).

Why not just get a iPod touch and not waste money?
