    I get antsy when someone handles my phone. I especially hate it when they open up my messages. I try not to let strangers touch it much. My husband I let use it...if he feels up to trying to figuring it out.

    "Do you have the necessary access credentials to view matters of national security?"

    Most just get confused and walk away.
    LOL It would suck to be you if some guy with a security clearance asks you.

    Otherwise I thought your approach was pretty cool

    I guess I would say what makes you think this is a phone, it's my laptop...you know they are making them smaller and smaller every day.

    Nononononono! I've had friends in the past drop my phone. Once... they thought it would be funny to run off with the phone and hide it. It was NOT funny. I'm sorry... but when you pay however much you paid for your phone... I'd rather not risk any casualties. With my phone or friends

    It is amazing to me that someone could damage an expensive piece of electronics and not believe they have any responsibility to pay for a repair or a replacement. Where have character and manners gone?

    Character and manners is a whole new topic . In my opinion they' ve gone on a very long vacation with the thing that used to be known as GOOD customer service

    I was in one of our remote offices to switch a user to our loaner 8830WE for her trip when I found out the USB jack was busted. Having no other options, I had to give her my month-old Tour for her to take to Egypt for three weeks. It almost made me sick to my stomach. Didn't even have time to do a backup, had to wipe and activate it for her. I did have enough time to buy an Invisishield and slap it on...

    I have been asked 3 times. The lsat time was this woman asking me and I said no. She proceeded to walk around saying "why doesn't anyone have a g-damn phone>" I felt like saying "everyone has one but you- you're just too rude and nobody trusts your shady a**".

    Next person that asks to use my phone I'm going to ask for a $500 deposit. That'll shut them up.

    My standard reply to phone moochers is "sorry, I have like no minutes." (Lie; I have a thousand a month and barely touch that number, but they're still not getting my phone.)

    I usually just tell people it's too complicated to even dial out, they're better off using someone else's. Ha. They usually believe me when I show them I have a BB.

    I NEVER let ANYONE use my phone. Mostly, because of the face grease, germs and security. I do not want my phone number "out there."

    I had a lady ask me one time at a BlackJack table at a casino if I had a cell phone. I said yes and she said she needed to make an emergency call. I said NO. Then I wondered, what emergency she could have after sitting at a BlackJack table for 45 minutes. Weird.

    Anyone that asks to use my phone...the answer is... **** to the NO!

    Ha!
    If I had one of those cheap phones, then my answer would be yes everytime, but since I don't have a cheap phone, my answer is usually "**** to the NO"!!!

    I HATE when people ask to use my phone. I was outside the mall the other day... and a questionable looking person asked to use my phone. I said no... of course. I'm not about to risk someone running off with my phone.

    I even get a little nervous when a friend asks to barrow my phone. I'm always afraid it's going to get dropped. Lol.

    No, definately no. Only a very small group of people (family and my girlfriend) are allowed to use it.
    As for the rest it's a no-go :P

    I have before and will if I feel like I can trust them/they really need it. Just making a personal call...no

    I'm also weary since the time when I let this guy use my pearl for a call. He made his call to ask where someone was and off he went on his bike. Followed a hot minute later by three quickly moving cop/campus patrol....
