Worse than "razr?" 'Cause they're cool phones, but that's a pretty shitty name.

elSicomoro 07-16-2007 07:38 PM

Or do you mean that they're crappy phones?

They are known to be really crappy phones over here, lots of software problems and the highest percentage return for repair rate in phones sold.

5 people, 5 different phones.

Mine is a Samsung MM-A900 that looks like a Razor. I have had really good luck with Samsungs as well. They have a reputation of being durable and since I work where there are tile floors and have a tendency to drop mine a lot, that is an important feature. Also I carry mine in my pocket and do not like anything hanging on my belt, so it needs to be thin. Fits the bill.

We have Kyocera Phones, all they do is talk and text. That is about as fancy as I need. Last May at the boat club of the 10 people sitting outside, only 2 of that group had a phone that was any thing more than just a phone. Most of this group are considered working rich, and are self employed. The basic concincious is all you need is a phone.

The razrs have a really bad name over here.

I have no idea... its uh... silver. :blush:
Works fine for me, much better than my last pos that kept turning itself off. That one was replaced under warranty with one that had a battery life of about 32 minutes.

I have 3 other digital cameras but I still use the one on my phone pretty often.

Mine is a Motorola V551. I only use it for talking and once or twice a year a text message. No games, four pics in two years (still on there), no internet and no fluff. It is capable of all this (except GPS) but I refuse to use it. I also have an MP3 player, digital camera, Gameboy etc. They do the job better than a phone anyway.

But...I cannot ditch the phone. It is my lifeline, my only means to get directions, better communications with Dispatch than QualComm gives me. and occasional hookups with friends scattered through the country.

I gotta have one.

Motorola Razr V3

I've had no problems with it, just passed my first year anniversary.

The battery lives on my last two phones (the Motorola and a Nokia 6230) have been nothing short of awesome...I can go 2 or 3 days without recharging.

I never used a cell phone on a regular until 2 years ago. Now it is my primary phone, and when I don't have it, it feels a little weird. But I'm not tethered to it...I don't always answer it and I don't always carry it with me.

I don't have a cellphone, but this is very convincing.

elSicomoro 07-17-2007 06:38 PM

Goddamn...that's funny. What would be even funnier is if Nokia actually did some advertising like this.

Uisge Beatha 07-17-2007 06:40 PM

Funny? No, that's frikkin' hilarious! :rotflol:
