I'm glad I have an "old style" Phone. Don't need or want a SmartPhone.

P.S: The other kind of mobile phone is called a "feature phone."

iPhone 4s was working great on iOS 6.1.2 ... then they shoved 6.1.3 in it, wifi and a bunch of other things don't work at all. Might as well be a gameboy. :(

Probably has something to do with the fact that if you want it to function something like a smartphone the carrier will sell you those "features" (maps, music, etc) for a price which makes it almost as much as a data plan for a smartphone.

My wife has a Smart Phone (we use Verizon for our cell phones since Verizoff only has 32% of the operation. We never see Angry Birds anywhere, My cell phone won't (it's not a Smart Phone) and Michele's Smart Phone doesn't get Angry Birds either. If it it did, a lawyer friend of ours would be happy to file a suit against Verizoff.

Heh. Yeah, I had one of those Nokia shits years ago. Took some crappy pictures and that was about it. Wasn't about to hit any of the icons with the Darth Vader logo on it because "charges MAY apply" (what are the odds? Heh)

To be fair, he could be a woefully inadequate lawyer given to filing lawsuits which will be thrown out in a matter of moments.

All these trends never settle on anything. For a while, the BlackBerry was the "in" thing; now BlackBerry is suffering big-time.

They're doing pretty good lately with the QNX OS on them. Apps are starting to appear too. It's a really good phone if you need to keep your work space and personal space completely separate.

You're right. Maybe he's a crooked lawyer given to filing frivolous lawsuits (see Will's post).

The gender of the lawyer doesn't have any bearing on the outcome of this frivolous lawsuit you think you would file because you don't understand how a smartphone works.
