I'm another who doesn't have, or want a smartphone. I still use my 15-year-old flip-phone; it does everything I want, and nothing I *don't* want. It works fine, runs for weeks on the battery, and only costs me $10 a month for service.

I particularly don't want something that's an obvious theft hazard, data privacy risk, and easy hacker target. I also don't want something I have to replace every few years, and re-learn how it works.

But I can see using a smartphone for applications that you actually do want and need. I'd just want one where all the extra "crap" could be left out or turned off.
