I still carry a pager. I also carry a cell phone but nobody has the number. I'm always on-call and if they can get me by cell, that's so convenient for them that I get stupid question calls all night and all weekend.
But the pager's inconvenient for them, I call back on my cell in 15 or 20 minutes and that's just inconvenient enough that they'd rather solve the problem themselves than wait 20 minutes wondering when I'm gonna call.
I went cell phone shopping a year ago. I wanted a durable, one color(not pink or yellow), no frills phone. I don't want a camera, don't need a color display, don't use my cell phone to schedule meetings or play video games. I don't want it to flash when it rings or play any songs by Michael Jackson.
Turns out nobody makes a phone that's just for making phone calls.
