You're right about the world moving on. It's not practical for most people. I'm 51 and don't use it for much except texting and the hotspot, but I still take it with me if I'm expecting a call while I'm outside the house.

When you grow up without a phone, you prepare more than you have to now. You just learn the streets so you don't need a map app. Bring a jacket in case you break down and have to walk. Carry a can of 'fix-a-flat' in the car or a plug kit to take care of flat tires.

I'm too set in my ways to change.
