I actually don't even need a new phone at all, and didn't even really WANT one until last night.
I'm pretty sure the words are in English, but I have no idea what this sentence means...
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

I have no desire for a new phone either! My dragon phone serves me well, and it's RAZR thin and shit, so since I have no intention of paying twenty to thirty bucks more a month for a data plan, I don't need one of those fancy-schmancy phones with the Internet inside them.

Trust my rage
See, having my phone has totally changed the way I live. I'm always a little shocked to look at my phone bill and see just how much data I use in a month.
Speaking of my phone, I discovered that I can now deposit money in my checking account with an iPhone app. I just take a picture of the front and back of the check and the money is deposited instantly.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
How much data does one use on a fancy internet phone to access the internet? My cell phone will soon be a brick (in the sense of big, dead, and useless), and I'm trying to figure out what I need.

Our wings are not tired.
Whoa, Stephanie, I didn't know that. What bank do you use? Does it save you from having to physically deposit the check ever?

Trust my rage
I use USAA and yes, I just write VOID on the check, save it just in case for a few weeks, and then rip it up later. It's cool because our bank is in Texas so otherwise, all deposits are sent by mail.
I used 137,878 MB of data last month and only 387 minutes.

My Treo was the first phone I had with a halfway decent browser, and I spent over $100 in data charges the first month I had it. (At which point I switched over to the unlimited data plan.) I don't think at this point I could go back to a non-smartphone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My Nokia e61i isn't the smartest of smartphones (and it's certainly not cool), but I have the unlimited data plan and the minimum minutes, and that's about how I use it. I wish it had more memory and a better browser, but not quite enough to go shopping for a new phone. I have OS and carrier issues.

Oh, I'm sure. Once you have one, you use it all the time and find new ways to use it. It's like how I can't imagine not having a cell phone at all now even though I went all through college without one.

That is way cool! It's an extension of the new ATMs that can just eat your check and read the amount on it magically, saving you from having to deal with deposit slips and tellers.
