My father uses a landline, vonage, he doesn't like cellphones and he rarely leaves his house, so a cell phone is useless. and my mother, uses one mainly for business use at phone, its a preference.

I have an a flip phone from virgin mobile, I hate contracts and I had a smartphone for about 2 weeks and i found it pointless. I have a computer, a tablet , a laptop so a smartphone would be pointless, I use about 400 minutes and maybe 20 texts a month. I am not knocking anyone with smartphones, just not for me, not a facebook, twitter, google+ social media kind of guy and it really seems thats what smartphones are built around.
