Digital Dave Denver

Yesterday, I was having dinner with 5 friends, at The Old Blinking Lighthttp://www.oldblinkinglight.com/ Dave announces he has finally gotten a cell phone. This received a round of traditional "shock and awe" responses from the gang. Analog Dave goes Digital Dave. It's been impossibly difficult to reach Dave when meeting for skiing, boating, hiking, you name it ....... without a cell phone. I suppose in a previous life, we were all on time and never had to call to say "I'll be 7 minutes late due to traffic" and the like.



Dave announces that AT&T (the old Cingular...he didn't get that part) paid HIM to get the phone! Dave got 700 minutes, a full rebate for the phone and for at least one month service. He got them to essentially turn OFF every possible modern feature known to a cell phone except the camera. The sales person at the cell phone place was aghast discovering that Dave had never had a cell phone plan, had no cell phone to turn in, exchange, transfer, etc.
