Phones aren’t toys

PhoneBoy thinks phones are toys. I take my telecommunications devices very seriously. The world in my hands is a hefty title to give ones cell phone, but I honestly can’t imagine life without it.
Don’t know a word? Look it up.
Never heard of a location, artist, dish, band, etc? Look it up.
I have an entire 1991 Encyclopedia Britannica collection sitting on my library shelf. I have access to that exact same information in a device as small as the Nokia (NYSE: NOK) 6300.
I love the internet











While I use the word “toy,” trust me, I take the use of my phone seriously.
Remember that I’m giving my kids the *oldest* of the handsets I’ve got–handsets I would only use if I didn’t have any other handsets available. Handsets that, well, you can’t really make use of the Internet on.
You mean the ones before color screens?
