Five days ago, smartphone of my husband was broken. He has sent the smartphone to the service center. But, until now the smartphone has not been repaired. He is stressful, because he lost some important information from his co-worker. I can't help much, because I do not use smartphone. Unfortunately, we do not have enough money for buying new one. Yes, live being difficult without smartphone, what do you think?

If possible you should get him a small spiral notebook for him to keep with him at all times. My husband has a smart phone and still keeps a paper notebook on or nearby him. Hopefully your husbands phone will be repaired soon.

Thank you on your suggestion, but I think he does not want to do it. He is not a painstaking man. I think his friends will send him some short messages if there are many urgent thing to known by him. I hope the phone will be repaired soon. Thank you on your support.

Smartphones are important, it seems, for working people. I donĀ“t need one and I have a thousand better ways to spends my money.

Yes, you are right, it is important thing. Why you don't need smartphone? Do you use another way to communicate easily and quickly?

Fortunately I write down phone numbers and anything that is important to me. So I take it they didn't want to replace your husband's phone.

Smart phones do not have a long lifespan. I think that is a lesson for your husband not to save important information in the phone. It is best that he sends the important information to his email, so that he can still retrieve it through email when the phone is gone.

Yes, my husband too. He is really stressful. He feels like a stupid people where he does not know some important information about his job. Yes, my husband still pay attention to what happen in around him, but it comes from his friends not from his smartphone.

Apa kabar Srisahara? Good to connect with you again. I understand his angst. I don't own a smartphone as I do not connect much with others of the newer generation. However, I have a normal hand phone which I use rather sparingly as it can take over our lives with applications that prove addictive - we become enslaved to them! siva

I am fine. I glad to see you. Yes, nowadays, most of people were difficult live without smartphone. But, it does not happen to me. I also do not use smartphone, I just use a handphone to communicate with my parents and relatives. I do not have many friends, because I am a full-time mom, where I just need to online use my laptop for looking for some information and interact with my friends here...

It is difficult to live without the things that we used everyday in our life. The same things happened to me a month ago with my laptop.
