Loves a good question
I feel like I'm eavesdropping.
I'm sorry, Dachs. I have to say it's nice to see that most people are like me on this one, though.
Do you own a Cell Phone?

Got rid of the land line, kept the cell phone.

Hmm, the only mobile phone that doesn't use cell towers to network with is a satellite phone! Nice work. Those are expensive. I can't justify that expense.

Well that is the term that we use to describe those phones. I was so tempted to say the exact same thing, but I decided to do Robin Hood:Men in Tights instead, with the OP.
Globalstar offers unlimited airtime/roaming anywhere in North America for $27 CAD/month with a 1-year contract.

I had one for a long time, got my first one in the early 90's. Haven't had one for the last 5 years or so and I don't miss it one bit. TBH I always found it incredibly annoying that people could contact me anytime, anywhere (Mostly because that makes people seem to think you want to be called and annoyed anytime your phone is on, even if it's 3AM). I stick to a VOIP phone at home and that's good enough. Anytime I'm out of the house I don't want to be contacted anyway, since it means I'm already busy doing something relatively important. Hell of a lot cheaper too.
Also, I find it pretty funny hearing people talk like life on earth would stop for them if they no longer had a mobile phone... You are aware that human civilization existed for years without them, right? Sure they're convenient, but they're hardly life or death.

Interesting poll results so far. So nobody, according to it, gave up using his cell phone for its costs? You gotta tell me you providers!

I have a prepaid, so it is nice and cheap.
Got my own last month to quell my wife's fears of me having car problems... and so she can yank the leash when I'm no where to be found at the mall.

Nice deal. The current plans available on their website aren't that good though. I'd have to wait for a special I guess.
How come you know so, so much about phones?
Honest question here.
I tend to compulsively research anything before I spend my money to ensure I'm making the best possible choice for my needs. Since I got my first cellphone a couple months ago, I did all my homework beforehand, and stay up to date in case there's a better deal for me to switch to.
Hm, I didn't check the US site, but the plan is still offered on their Canadian one.
Doesn't make much sense, as it gives unlimited US roaming...
(Although the satellite phone themselves are still pretty pricey, and have issues inside buildings)

That's great!
If more people would do that you'd get a lot more smart choices. 
I do that often myself (although that's definitely not the reason why I know stuff about this topic in particular), so I admire it when I see it.

Yes, just because almost every other member of my immediate family has one. My dad is the exception to the rule of owning a cellphone.
