I much prefer text. Not a fan of the phone, often get interupted, dropped calls, etc. Text is so much easier.

Text. Being social and talking to people is overrated.

I'm more of a texter myself, but if it's urgent then I don't wanna play games about if they got my text yet or not. Calling is immediate.

I'm more of a texter. Because I usually use my cell to set up events for the night which would require multiple calls back and fourth to figure out what people are doing. Texting is just easier for both sides in this type of situation.

Texting is good at work when you can't really be on your phone if you have something to do you put the text down and continue later. I think I go through about 60 sent a day.

What's texting? 
Oh wait, do you need a cell phone to do that with? 
Oh well, no cell phone here so no texting or phone calls unless I'm sitting at home next to the phone.

part of the reason i asked is because i always had plenty of minutes. more then i'd ever use, so i talked alot, i have cingular service and i was very happy with it but in the few months since ATT took over cingular i've had more dropped calls in that time, then the whole year of cingular service i'd had before the change. the reception sucks, i'd swear it was a nextal if i did'nt know better. so now thats the reason i'm texting more then calling any more
