I am a shirt pocket kinda guy. What does that say about my degree of sissification?
Anyone remember sissy bars on their sting-ray bikes? I was horrified that the new cool thing was called a “sissy” bar. Such mixed emotions. Didn’t really matter because my bike was a 1950 vintage hand me down with balloon tires.

It was a little big at first compared to my 5s but now I don't think I could go back. The only reason I say it's "big" is because sometimes it's hard to use one handed and stretch your thumb all the way to the top of the screen. Nothing else about the phone is big...it's actually very slim when in my pocket etc. We use AT&T because they have the best coverage and speeds in NW CO.

I have never been a big Apple fan but the only smart phone I have ever owned is an iPhone 4. Still have it. Charge it once a week. Fat, dumb and happy. Wife uses a Samsung Galaxy Infuse and needs a new phone. I have some kids that have iPhones and we all like the find friends apps so we can spy on each other. One kid has lost his phone and needs a new one. That kid and my wife are shopping for phones and plans. Kid is OK with Apple products. His mother has anxiety about leaving Android. Kinda like I want her to vote Democrat or join PETA... (Which is totally weird as I associate Apple with Birkenstock wearing, Dreadlocks, Cigarette Smoking, BA degrees, Wine, Liberal, Democrat, Tree Hugger and folks that use crystals to align their chakras). We are all on a pay as you go “mobile value share” plan with AT&T. No matter what we decide I get to pay. The new phones are pretty expensive. But they will amortize depending on the plan. Too lazy to even attempt to understand the plans from the different carriers, the different phones, etc etc. I have used less than 0.01 GB of data in the last month. Phone are for talking on. But I realize that my buggy whip factory stock is probably worthless too. So my opinion as to features is irrelevant as I still read books printed on plant matter. (I do like the built in camera and a solar panel orientation and location app) (And a hymn book...) But I would like to get a good value. I care more about price than features or OS. Not so the rest of the clan. (As in Scottish Clan, OK, not Klan). So if anyone can help me pick a direction It would be appreciated.
