My journey started quite innocently enough. I had a pager for work, but I was tired of looking for a pay phone to call from. So I got a cell phone. It was big and heavy and expensive, and my was it also expensive to use! My first plan charged 50 cents a minute. No one called me on it. I still kept the pager and used the cell phone to return calls.

I worked my way through the technology advances and through the carriers. I remember being excited when I was able to order from Amazon on my Kyocera Sprint phone. I thought that was pretty smart. Then came the Treo 180; my first real smart phone with calling, text, email, and organizer, all in one. No more carrying my big leather Daytimer! There was a lot to love about that little monochrome device. I have been hooked ever since.
