+1. I use my wireless phone for voice convesation and the occasional text
message exchanges. Where I differ from Mark is when I'm away from the
house/office: I put my phone in a Faraday cage bag so I have it available if
I want to make a call.

I keep only frequently called numbers in my contact list. All the rest are
in the Palm TX and jpilot.

Don't do facebook, twitter, or that other stuff. My social network is
face-to-face (was/will again be), phone, and e-mail.
