Re: A cool OMNY feature

"I have no interest in using a $200 smartphone (nor a $1000 one)."

Talk to someone under 50. I'm no gadget-collector and don't buy the latest model phone, but I even I, who watches 0 videos, plays 0 games and shoots 0 vids with my phone find that an unsubsidized (retail, unlocked) device can't hack it. It's possible pay "$200" for a decent phone, but only if there's a contract or carrier lock-in.

I use an older model of a premium brand. It would not even be considered by the 20-something set but it's well above the throwaway / no-name level, it's the minimum I find to be useable. Of course I'm using it mostly to run apps, often to waste time/surf the web, occasionally for txts and on rare occasions to for a non-spam phone call. The thing we call a phone is now rarely used for talk.
