I’ve always been a bit behind the times when it comes to adopting new technology. But today I joined the ranks of normal people when I purchased a cell phone.

It’s a sweet little thing—a D211i. In addition to letting me make phone calls, I can surf the web, send e-mail (if I’m willing to enter text using the numeric keypad) and set alarms. I can even download songs for my ring tones, though I’m not sure why I’d want to, since my phone has ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” built-in. Who needs more than that?
