I have to go out on the porch to get even one bar. Because of that, I don't use the phone much at all. I'd rather communicate by e-mail. My kids, though, have the kind of phone service where they can look up things on the phone from almost anywhere. They keep saying they will take me to pick out a new phone, but Tom says the monthly cost will go up astronomically. I need to find out, anyway.
