My iPhone screen cracked last night. It was remarkably unsettling, I didn't realize how much I'm used to an intact screen and my fingers free of glass shards. I stressed over a few options; replace the screen myself (way too difficult, I'd need a dust free environment which I don't have); send it in for replacement ($300 and I'd be phoneless for two weeks since I'm hours away from the nearest Apple Store); or get a flip phone. Wouldn't you know it, my boss has a few old dumb phones laying around and he offered me one so I'm going to switch over tonight. I've read a few articles of the Internet-enslaved extolling the benefits of trading out constant connectivity for a bare bones phone, and while I can imagine what they say to be true, I can't sift for truth through all their enthusiasm. What do you guys think?
