Cell phones are an important necessity to have in life; well atleast i feel this way. My phone is pretty basic, answering/receiving calls, txt/pix messages, an has a camera, with bluetooth capability. I can also go on the web, an that kind of stuff which i dont use because i know it justs costs more money. When i see people my age getting all these new high tech gadgets they call phones i dont know what to think other thank, "oh its new and "high tech" that they just have to have it." Honestly i do not think they need all these capabilities, they arent managing businesses and what not.
However i do think it is important to have cell phones, i mean work, my family, friends all get a hold of me via my cell phone just because i'm out doing stuff more often than less. Its good communication. On the topic of freaking out if i dont have it, yes i am the person to freak out if i dont have it with me just because that is my way of communication with everyone i know. I personally can say i have not had a phone call on my land line for me (other than banks/college people) from my friends in a very long time. But this is just my opinion, there are many out there.
