"Only needs phone ~5 times a moth" that is still 60 times in a year. For me the whole "argument" (or whatever) fell apart there. I can accept the "one ruined meeting in three years", but if you need something weekly (or more than once a week) you are not "living without it".
He could easily achieve the same exact result by not installing social apps, disabled browser and just having Uber and actual calling functionality and you could still call forward every incoming call to landline so the mobile wouldn't even ring.

- dikdik 11y agoI had the same reaction, but then thought....there may be a small, but growing niche of people that want a 24/7 connected device allowing some of the 21st century apps without all the overbearing communication.
- ggchappell 11y agoThat's kinda what an iPod Touch is, right? (The question mark is not rhetorical.)
- 746F7475 11y agoWell, one easy way to achieve this is to turn off notifications from all the apps. I'm constantly surprised how many people around me have their phone ring/vibrate from every little thing. Even worse are the people with Apple Watches with all notification from everywhere flooding into their wrists, it's like they are constantly checking the time and making tiny adjustments. But then again I don't quite understand social media. I just have small circle of friends I'm in touch on daily bases and we are little old hat and just use IRC like we've always done.
