The old fashion ones!
Seriously, I am not impressed with any of the new phones quality. The
features are great, but my newest phone, LG VX440, is a plastic piece of
junk compaired to the Nokia I had 3yrs ago. The way things are going, I am
expecting my next phone to do everthing, internet, TV, Star Trek
Transporter, and be made out of Cardboard.

.... yes I am arriving at that conclusion myself; think they are now selling
packaged cellphones with 400 minutes on them and as far as I can tell they
have no charger which means once you burnup the airtime the phones are then
useless - cellphones are becoming commodities like Gillette razors, when
they get used up or you just get tired of looking at it you toss'em. To me
its amazing because I think they are hi-tech marvels and I have a hardtime
thinking of them as still functioning but disposable.
I originally posted the question because due to circumstances beyond my
control I usually have to keep my cellphone in my car during the day while
at work and even with the windows cracked it does get hot inside the car and
I wondered if my cellphone(a Motorola V120) will last the summer. But maybe
I will just have to get used to the idea and if the phone dies ........
well I guess I will have to get another.
