I am a pigeon. And what cell phone user are you? - Page 2

I'm a sparrow, but it said I was a pigeon.

I've got a Nokia 6310 my company gave me years ago, but I wouldn't get a personal one.

Nice bump!

I'm a pigeon

I mostly have it for emergencies. Or to call that I'm delayed. And my phone is often dead...

Goodness!

You buy a new phone every time the technology is out of date, or every six months, whichever is sooner. Your current phone allows you to create animated short films and download music from Napster.

There must be some mistake. It said I was a pigeon, which, clearly, I am not. I didn't like a lot of the choices either though. They didn't fit. My ex calls me? I hit ignore. My phone is always at my hip, not my ear. Etc, etc.

The quiz designer left out the category of folks who don't have a mobile phone at all. There's apparently only two of us left in the entire world - me and a 99 year old goat herder in Outer Mongolia.

Does that make me a dodo?

I'm a peacock, apparently. I didn't think that was very accurate, because I don't change my phone very often, but then I thought about it a bit ...

I do use my phone to view MR when I'm out and I like to make full use of all the features. Although I don't get a new phone very often I like to "improve" the one I have - every few weeks I try something new, or change something (I've used the customiser on my 505 as well, several times to keep tweaking it until I was happy with it!).

Thanks for bumping this thread

I'm a penguin, and yes, everyone would like me to reach the 21st century!

The survey said I was a peacock...

I don't really change phones all that often, though. I just take advantage of free phone offers when our contract ends.

you're still posting on MR... so not yet... ask us again when u become extinct..

Actually now that I think about it.... This survey is a dud. It does not have Portugal, Spain or the blue one next to the fish as options...
at least a llama... coooome ooon.!

Sorry, I just heard from a reliable source that the 99 year old goat herder in Outer Mongolia just ordered the new iPhone 3Gs.

Good dig sweets, I want more!

Hmm, I think you read that question wrongly

I think that question said that you just broke up and a mate (not your ex-partner!) called you while you were in a busy metro...

And naturally, only a few of those questions really fit what I do (my phone is usually somewhere in the bottom of my bag, and it takes between 1 and 5 minutes to fnd it, for example), but the rest is a bit over-generalized...

(about that metro question, I once was sitting in a train back home from work and there was this girl in front of me, who had an insurrance issue and she was talking on the phone, really loud, all about it... The whole train could enjoy the conversation...
