My KX-12 has retired. I upgraded to this beautiful baby. I'm still getting used to it.
It was interesting though to consider the elements of communication in today's world.
In two point seven seconds, we can learn anything we ever didn't want to know about anything, by simply sitting in front of a computer.
Handwriting is no longer a priority, or grammar, or spelling, because we text and you need to omit the unneccesary letters. Our 8 year olds can't be caught dead without their cell phone, and will call their friends walking to class two halls over.
omg(sh) i cnt bleve she sd tht crzy
What happened to the beauty of formality?? What happened to the beauty of the written and spoken word?
Whatever happened to going to a library to use a book to find the information you needed for that research project? (Please do not ask what a book is...)
Encyclopedias, the actual books in everyone's den from when I was a kid, are now obsolete. Outdated, time consuming and 2-dimensional, anyone would be stupid to refer to these for solid information. At any given time one can pull up a 3-d animated graphic plus instructional video for anything they want to know. SO what are we learning?

Hey, I used to have that same phone in orange! I traded it in though for something else. And when I text, I am good and spell everything out! Hee hee
