Our first topic is about something many of us would rather live without, but double back home to get if we leave them behind. Mobile phones.

We'd like to know your thoughts on mobiles phones and their usage. Things like when you should or shouldn't use them, what time is too late to call someone and when is it appropriate or inappropriate to text or call.

I use my mobile all the time. Home lines are just for ADSL now-a-days.

However, i would not call someone before 9am. I will sms, and leave it to them to call me back, ie. when they wake up. I will not call anyone after 9pm, unless its Friday or Saturday. Then about 1am. Again, I will sms instead.

I will silent my mobile in a meeting, movies and during dinner. I have messagebank and will get back to them when I can. If I miss them as well, then I will wait for them to get back to them. No incessant harrassment. If someone is constantly trying to get in touch instead of waiting, I will NOT call them back. They should have some patience and wait for me to respond instead of continuously hassling me.

Just leave a message or sms. There is no need to call a million times and then hang up for me to get clicks on my messagebank.
