Apparently is causing quite a lot of bodily injuries.

As someone who texts and walks at a frequent I find this extraordinarily hard to believe.. unless you are simultaneously playing hopscotch down a flight of stairs..

All right all right guys let's not get all hot and bothered now.

I err...I can't really walk and text, I suddenly slow down and start zigzagging across the pavement. And I nearly walked into a lamp post two days ago because of it. D=

Don't make jokes. (/).(\)

I rarely text.

If I was a criminal though, a texter who is not paying attention to their surroundings would be my prime target.

But, I'm a good girl, so no worries there. :P

Or is there? >.> :ph34r:

I don't even look at my cell when I type half the time, just when I finish and need to spellcheck.

Flippy I don't have a smart phone, I am not, nor will I ever be a sheep following trends like they are some sort of diamond encrusted...thing...err, I ran out of metaphors.

But I do love my 4 year old Nokia.

Rain: Oh, not me.. <.<

I'm a terrible typer both on the phone and here.

Gol: I'm not really sure you could consider smartphones 'trends'. O.o

To me it's just an advance in technology.

I can see how you would feel that way tho, with all the Apple fanatics creaming themselves everytime a new version of iPhone comes out.

Actually Flippy, I had a friend who had one of the new iPhones. The screen cracked within a month. With their supposed uncrackable screen glass or whatever it is.

The iphones have some of the more easily broken screens actually.

Also, on the 4's, you have to dismantle the entire phone to replace the screen.
On the 3, you take out two screws and pull the screen out.
