Internet on my phone.

Mine usually die from something other than the battery, the digitizer (touch sensitive part of the screen) is usually the death blow, either stops responding 100% or the screen is so badly cracked it cracks the digitizer, at that point I just buy a new phone

I don't buy anything top of the line, usually 300$ is my absolute limit, you can normally get 1 or 2 generations behind Samsung or Motorola new for that price

Now that flip phones are back in style, I wonder if my old bag phone will come back around?

Too funny! I had one of those too! Big huge phone in a bag on the tyranny hump, and an antenna you stuck on the roof with a cable through the door or window!

Yeah, my first cell phone was one of the bag phones. Had a bit more power then the pocket cell phones at that time. Got one of the smaller jump boxes to power it away from the truck, worked well. At one work site, it was laughed at a bunch, with the remarks of it being real handy, just fit in a very "big" pocket. To which I replyed "yeah, but can your cellphone jump start a car?" There were no come backs, and it was not talked about anymore.

My first cell phone was a brick type

Well peace and tranquility have been restored in the household. My laptop is operational again, no more screwing with a little screen and keyboard and cussing the damn phone when trying to scroll and crap pops up. Damn phone is so sensitive even one of my boys commented on that, he tried to adjust it but no go, i'm sure all you have to do is have a finger a half inch from the screen and the damn thing reacts. Hmm perhaps it's getting ready for the rising up and takeover by the machines.
