Learn Good Living

At the very least, using the Nokia 6708 teaches three good habits. (1) Learn not to text while driving; the only way to compose an SMS is by writing with a stylus on the unit’s touch-sensitive screen. (2) Improve your penmanship; only clearly legible writing will be recognized by the phone.

(3) Be more careful with your possessions. The charger, with its proprietary design, incompatible with any Nokia phone on the market today, means finding a replacement is hard.
