After three and a half years, we finally got new mobile phones. My unit has been dying on me for the past few months, but because I’m rarely out of the house anyway, I didn’t mind. It’s only on those few occasions when I’m out doing errands, and my husband is trying to get me on my cell phone and it’s off that he gets irritated. He has been bugging me to head out and get one for ages. With the cold temps I have opted to stay in and not pay attention to his plea.
With Verizon’s 20% discount(c/o the husband’s perks from work) on the monthly charges, we opted to stay with them. Besides, the service has been reliable so far. Thus, we got his and hers identical LG Dare. So much like the iPhone but not quite. If you’re in the US, you must know the iPhone is exclusive with AT & T. Reviews on the net actually branded this LG Dare as an iPhone clone. It has an intuitive touch-screen interface, an advanced 3.2-megapixel camera, a full HTML browser, EV-DO among other features.
His and Hers
Oh, and if only I’m an avid texter, I would love this virtual QWERTY keyboard:
This would surely make ones texting speed a lot faster. Now, I should start gathering my text buddies so I can make full use of this feature. But honestly, my mobile phone is off most of the time, and I haven’t used any of the added features other than place and receive calls. I should at least try and use the web browser to check on Las Vegas resumes. Why? Because I have to. I will tell you why in due time.
I’m home almost everyday. Why should I even have a cell phone to begin with. Much more a cell phone that comes loaded with newfangled things that I don’t even use. What a way to make ones life more complicated (chuckle).
That’s surely a pair of cool looking phones – touch screen too, awesome
I’ve had my Dare for about 6 months now and I really like it. I don’t text, but I do check my email on it and I like the way it works. I use the qwerty keyboard for everything I type into the phone, even if it’s just contact information. Enjoy your new phone!

thanks Lynne. good to know someone who’s been using it for a few months and satisfied with it. I seldom use it though, as I’m seldom out of the house.
@ Vera
thanks Vera.
visiting u with a smile:-)
@ sedona
thanks for peeking.
Su-weeettt!! Ako if ever I decide to have one, I’d probably get the simplest possible one. The husband actually wants an iPod just like what he got for the little one….and of course the little suggested that Dad should also get me one and that she’s willing to teach me how to use it….hahaha.

@ Juliana
that’s funny. now, she’s going to teach you. I just actually want a very uncomplicated unit that sends and receives calls. si F makulit kasi gusto identical, and he happens to like this model.
That’s a cool gadget. I love phones and electronic devices. It’s especially cool that you have his and hers. lol. I have such geek-appreciation for your post.

thanks Christine. I’m not so into electronic devices and only own the basic ones. I hate changing devices too, but I need to change after sometime. thanks for stopping by.
