QOTD: Who gets to use your phone?

qotd27Who do you let use your smartphone? I often let my kids play with my iPhone, but no one gets near my Bold 9700. Not one person, ever!

    I let just about anyone use my smartphone; kids, wife, and friends. There isn’t anything they could do to mess it up.

    Same here. Nobody touches my Touch Pro2. Mobile devices nowadays have become much more personal…

    Colleagues at work are always playing with my HD2, but normally no one would be allowed to use it. The Pre only gets used by me!

    Just my wife for me too, and that’s only because she has forgotten her phone, as it is not carried all the time like me.

    Occasionally wife or kids to make a call – they’re all on PAYG so might as well use my minutes……
    Occasionally daughter when she hasn’t got her ipod Touch and wants a Bejeweled fix.

    My wife uses when she’s with me. That way she doesn’t spend money ;) (clever girl)
    She has an Nokia “dullphone” and when she needs to type a number to call on my virtual-keyboard WinMob device she just asks:”how do I write the number??”
    I have to agree that for people that are used to just type a number and a green button to call, to hold a phone on the complex today screen and from there to type a number is a bit…mmmm….. difficult.
    The I say, just press the green button at any moment and there you go… stright to the dialling screen :)

    Ohter then that, my kids occasionally play some games a bit. But before that I just switch off the phone feature… just in case. Actually I have already caught the phone trying to connect to the internet, just to upload some game results :(

    Nobody but me touches the Berry; unless they are bringing it to me because I left it sitting on the shelf. What really drives me insane is when other kids try to take it off my hip in the case.

    Apart from my wife’s sister who helps out in reception at our English school here in Spain and uses it to ring my wife or customers, noone. She knows how anal I am with my precious, and treats it well. But she put a HUGE scratch on her phone the first day she got it, which I find worrying!
