I may be marking myself out as a Luddite, but because of very poor cellular reception I've never been able to effectively use my mobile phone at home...

Given that I will probably switch to a network with better coverage this summer, I was wondering what people generally tend to do with their mobiles when they're at home?

Do you carry it from room to room? Do you have chargers/docks scattered around? Or do you just leave it in a corner and carry it only when you're actually out?
 
If you're having an affair, make sure you keep it with you at all times.

If not, it doesn't really matter I suppose, but seeing as they are highly mobile, why not just keep it with you? Doesn't make sense to have to rush to answer it in another room.
 
Vodafone do a booster that you can plug into your broadband router... Sure Signal....

It connects to the vodafone network over the net and it works like a treat!

I managed to barter them down to £20 for it.
 
I leave it around. My phone is pretty big and they very rarely make women's clothes with pockets you can actually put anything in.
 
I have mine with me at all times but I need to for work, plus its nice to sit on the toilet reading E-mails, browsing the net and playing games
 
Because you can't access PersianWifeFinder.com on a house phone silly ! :rolleyes:

Frank, you twat :lol:

Seriously, if you want to go on a website, turn your computer on, if it's a phone call, use the house phone, if your out, use a public phone, if it's vandalised, go in to any pub or whatever and use it.

They do have a premium rate number though ;)

Mine stays in my pocket unless it's on charge, I do have times though where I just turn it off and don't care if someone is trying to ring me, I hate it that we are contactable all the time, also mine gets turned off when I go to bed.

I love using mine for notes, I have loads on my phone.
 
Some interesting comments, thanks. I'll have to experiment a bit to see what feels most "natural" I guess :)
