Yesterday I Noticed my Phone went Dead.
Probably the Battery But only place to get one is EBay.
Which could take a week.

so rather then get a New Phone,
Same day Delivery For Who knows How Much,
And still need to run to have it activated since I doubt My Brain
could do on it's own.

Off to AT&T Store I went.
thankfully they had 2 flip phones
I Bought the AT&T Cingular flip Phone IV
I didn't think to look what the screen pic is till now. Sorry a Bit Blurry, But Best I can Do

That is a nice looking phone. I had a flip phone for years that I loved and unfortunately forgot in my pouch while lake detecting. It vibrated wildly as it filled with water and then it was gone. May your flip phone have a long and dry life.

I thought those went out a decade ago! If I were a single person, I’d have one.

From an add I just saw , I take it they Recently Brought the flip Phone Back.

At Least AT&T did Recently.

For the last 3 to 5 years My contract had Run out. & they had No Flip Phones.
I've Been advising AT&T the entire time I will Not Buy a Phone I need an additional $50.00 a Month to have,
Nor do I want an Ugly Rectangular Phone.
I Just Want a Phone !

Used to be every Year I could get a free Flip Phone Upgrade. The Free part is also Gone.

I wonder if the Jitterbug Flip Phones scared ATT that they Brought the Flip Phone Back.

yea i tried the free government phone.
at least the one they sent me had terrible quality sound.
voices were very grainy like they were electrified.
ya get what ya pay for with a free phone from the government :laughing7:

and the Jutterbug Phones Turned me off.
When I Hear the Word Jitterbug, I thing 90 Year old Lady
Jittering all over as she walks :tongue3:
Since I'm not a 90 Year old Lady, I'd be embarrassed to Buy a Jitterbug.

They know what you ate for breakfast!!

I Believe it.

I've been convinced for Years My last phone had a Chinese Spy inside it.
When Ever I Use my Phone I Get scam Calls.

When I Don't use it for a week they Stop till I Make or answer a Call again
