I'm somewhat famous in my circle of friends for not having a smart phone. I've used a nokia 6100 for the last decade. My thinking was very much like Luke's. I wanted a small, light phone which could make and receive phone calls and text messages. The side benefits of being amazingly tough, having a battery life of a week or more and being a talking point also helped. I'm a geek so I'm nearly always on a computer. When I'm away from a computer I actually enjoy the feeling of being disconnected. For the last 3 years I worked doing IT support for small businesses, I didn't have a GPS device in my car. My co-workers didn't know how I survived. I just planned better than they did, printed out google map directions and worked on having an excellent memory. I did cheat some what and stole the bosses wireless internet dongle so in emergencies I could just plug it into my laptop and be online from anywhere. I'm now living in the US and have the exact same phone as Luke.
