I would say I’m about even. I make a lot of calls, though. I probably send about 300-ish text/picture messages a month.

I have a T-Mobile Dash with full keyboard. My G1 will be here near the end of the month with it’s full keyboard. I could never go back to a T9 phone.

I don’t really text much (and it ticks me off when someone asks for my number to ‘call’ me, and then they send text messages… I have to pay for those and I’m not happy about it).
I’ll pick up the phone and call, or send an email, depending.

I’m in my mid-20’s, so it’s not like it’s a foreign concept, I just have no interest (unless say, my husband and I are at a conference, and need to meet up after a session gets out… or if he’s in another country, it’s cheaper than calling… but, that’s about it).

I guess I am not main stream as I have not sent a text message since I have had a cell phone. I do not like to use my cell for anything except to make or receive a phone call and that is not often.

I text more than I talk because I’ve never really liked talking on the phone. I only talk on the phone if I need to get a response right away. Otherwise, I text. I also text when I’m in situations when talking isn’t appropriate…somewhere quiet or crowded.

A couple of Christmas’ ago, my wife bought me a Bluetooth earpiece for my cell phone…but I returned it. I just don’t talk that much on my cell phone. I do tons of email on it, and texting. I’m with you, Babujai1…I’ve never really loved talking on the phone.

Funny: My daughter texts a lot more than talks on her phone, too. In fact, she and the boy she was dating almost never talked. Always text.

I have had cell phones for 10 years, and have never sent a text. I couldn’t do it to save my life, as I don’t know how and am not interested in learning. After receiving a couple stray text messages that came to me as a “wrong number”, I called my provider and had my text capability blocked. Guess I’ve never been in a situation where I thought a text was needed. I can always leave a voice mail if someone doesn’t answer my call.

Is anything more annoying that people with cell phones who won’t text?

I’ve only had a cell phone for 2-3 years. I barely use it to make/receive calls (I’d much rather use a land line). I have yet to send/receive a text.

What exactly makes that annoying?
