                      That will be $86.17 on a 3 year contract for 5 selfies a month. Overages are $25/selfie. No long-distance. Nights and weekend selfies are one (1) at no charge per week (rolling 7 days).

                      Conditions apply service not available everywhere though we will still charge you regardless visit your local store for a copy of T&C.

                          Nice! I don't know where I first saw it, maybe on a New Yorker cover, but the image came to me so I googled Norman Rockwell self portrait and found it.

                            I want that payphone. But I am content with my Korean war field phone.

                              I remember when I got my first qwerty phone. I hated typing on it. So much easier with my t9

                                So that's how you took selfies back in 1890?

                                  I admit that I had to stare at that pic for a second longer than should have been necessary.

                                    Such a cool take on the self portrait. Truly creative!

                                      I think that T9 was faster and more accurate than swipe typing on a touch screen, that could just be me, though.

                                        Honestly it was. I'm probably faster at typing on a qwerty touch screen now (I rarely actually use swype, though) than I would be if you handed me a T9 now, but that's just due to more recent practice, I'd bet. My fingers flew across that numberpad back in the day. Lol
