Are you just someone interested in sending and receiving call and every now and then and occasional text .In that case an ordinary cell phone would suffice. On the other hand, if you are someone who is trendy and needs to download bling ring tones, games and music, movies and other things from the internet ,if you are always surfing the internet and cant do without ,if need to be able to play your music and watch movies ,if you are always changing your screen saver then maybe a PDA phone (or at least a high end phone )would be more along the lines of what you want.

Which of the above does it for you ,ordinary phone or PDA phone ?

I only need a basic model phone to enable me to keep in touch with my family or to call for help in an emergency. Mine does have a radio but I've never listened to it and I haven't played any of the games nor even downloaded any tones/wallpaper etc.

ofcourse, i would go for a PDA...it is something that every geek dreams about..i really am trying hard to earn myself a pda...i hope i get to my target soon..PDA's are so multi functional and we can also surf internet via a PDA...also listening to music, watching movies and playing 3d games is so much fun...its a full time gadget with almost all the facilities that you can ever imagine..given a chance i would always grab my hands over a PDA..
thanks
happy mylotting

For me just an ordinary cell phone would do. I would not need a cell phone for any other job other than to speak to my family. That's all.
My husband and myself are not such avid talkers of phone. We just use the mobile phones for our needs when we go out or somewhere while travelling, where landlines cannot be accessed. For some , like my kids they use their mobiles for everything sending messages, clicking still and video photography, surfing the net and most of the time listening to the music.

I use a smart phone at the moment, but when my contract is over, I am going to get a phone that had the full keypad, but does not have all the bells and whistles my phone has, because I hardly even use them all. The main reason I am changing is because the bill is so much money. All I care about is the full keypad and unlimited text, I hardly use the internet or word on my phone.

I have my laptop, I also have my camera so I really don't need a phone that comes with anything out of the ordinary. I only use my phone to call and send sms. Other than that, I do them in my laptop that has an internet connection of course. Call me old-fashioned. But I just want the simpler things in life. It's always easy that way. And cheaper! LOL

I have both of them. The high-end phone really suffice my needs. I am able to download my favorite songs on my cellphone, since I am a music lover, that would be an advantage for me.

I also used to take pictures and save them for my remembrance. In this way, I will be able to reminisce my friends and family even though they are faraway to me.

i have my laptop for surfing internet. So i dont prefer a PDA phone. i think a normal cell phone with a good camera and good sound would be the best thing. They are smaller than PDA. PDA's are sensitive and their screen can break easily as compared to normal cell phone. For me in a cell phone the most important thing is its camera in the features. I have a nokia N95 and i think its almost perfect. I can take good pictures the video quality is excellent i can use the headphone to hear songs which gives amazing sound quality. whereas PDA's dont have good camera as well as sound quality

I used to have a PDA style phone. I liked it at first, but I got tired of the touch screen. Whenever I would accidentally touch the screen, it would call the last person I had called. It was a pain in the butt.

So now, I just have a regular cell phone that makes calls and do text messages and such.
