You obviously didn't read my whole post. It was a GIFT from my kids! And
I'm too poor to afford to get another phone on my own income.

Not everyone here buys their phones out of their own pocket. Some
inherit something older as a hand-me-down. Some have them assigned to
them through their employer. And some, like me, are lucky enough to have
one as a gift.

My kids thought that the touch screen would be easier to use than
pressing a bunch of little buttons. And so far, it does seem to be
easier on my arthritic hands. As I've said before, my main compliant is
the size of the pictures and text on the screen. Too small for old eyes.
I'm not a teenager anymore.
