I use mine to find directions to the next bar. Would never leave home without it.

I have one, as most of us do. I rarely use it, and hardly even answer it when I get a call. It is for emergencies, as far as I am concerned.

Default RE: Cell phone use

I live in the country, and only when i am away from traffic will i answer the phone.
so many people think if the phone rings they have to answer it.
they can wait until you have time , that's what they would have done in the old days.

Easy way to have best of both worlds - bought me a Garmin 550 with blue tooth. When I get me blue tooth helmet headset ,I can talk and ride and keep my eyes on the road. The headset I want to get is rated for 75 mph with no wind noise! Nice thing about the phone intergration on Gps it will tell you call is coming in and touch screen and you are talking.
