Our first topic is about something many of us would rather live without, but double back home to get if we leave them behind. Mobile phones.

We'd like to know your thoughts on mobiles phones and their usage. Things like when you should or shouldn't use them, what time is too late to call someone and when is it appropriate or inappropriate to text or call.

I think that 9pm is too late to call somebody because they are probably eating dinner, getting the kids ready for bed or maybe having family television time. I don't think there's an inappropraite time to stop texting people though. Unless you text them and they don't answer, don't keep texting them! You feel like you have to answer to every text message once one person has sent you more then 5 in 30 mins.
Mobile phones cost a fortune to use and purchase so why does everyone keep buying them? People get hit with $3000 bills and they keep their phones. I think that mobiles are a rip-off and an expensive one at that. But then again, I own one and I use it everyday!
