I resisted carrying a mobile for quite a while, wife'd insist on getting me one, I'd lose it, she'd get me another one, I'd lose it, she'd get me another one.......somehow she didn't see the pattern that formed.
I viewed having to carry a mobile as being like her making me wear a ferret collar.
I finally chose to carry one voluntarily when I worked abroad - turned out to be in an area which had no cover.
Next time I worked abroad I carried a mobile - lost it on the Manly Ferry within 24 hrs.
Got another one, ended up in another area with no cover.
I now view them as useful things- good for carrying round the house and getting online on WiFi rather than fire up the desk top.
I have only the one mobile, though I believe that the usual practise is to have two, one for work and wife and one for drug dealer and girlfriend.
