To be totally honest, I don't even really want a phone at all. It's just corporate and governmental bureaucracy that demands me to have one. I'd rather just use email, internet and VOIP to communicate with people from laptops/desktops, and give my ears an eyes a break when I'm on the go.



^ This is exactly what I started doing three years ago and love it. No more tiny rectangle screens stealing my attention; no more endless scrolling, notifications, tiny keyboards, or app stores; no more feeding the data monsters or being forced to upgrade when things fall out of support. Tons more time to think more deeply about things. Still very well connected via email, www, and VoIP, and I do have a work phone, but it's only used for work-related calls and SMS.
