I-Phone for Each Spouse?

Our family has 6 iPhones!

5 "I" in my house.

DW and I each have one. The extra phone costs very little except for initial expense.

OK, got it! Pretty well guessed that I should not be a cheapskate! Thanks.

If I could modify my thread a little --- what features (apps?) do you use most? Facebook? My granddaughters use something else, can't remember, PINTREST??

If we get I-phones, should I get 2, one for each of us. Or do you guys make do with one I-phone per family?

You should also investigate if there are shared phone plans for family phones (one set of minutes for example, shared among all the phones). Same for data.

Hey I am about as cheap as people come... The kids got wife and my old phones when we became eligible for free or low-cost upgrades. Our youngest (8) has an iPhone 4 that does not have a active service contract but she knows how to use it to communicate using the Wi-Fi which is just about everywhere where we live.

We each got one last Xmas. Cost per phone is high, but with AT&T you share the talk/data time. We have the smallest plan, which has unlimited talk/text, and most data we use is over wifi (free). When we are on trips, it's only $20 extra per gig if we go over on cell data, so over the course of the year we save big time, rather than enrolling in a higher data plan.

Skip the Iphones and go with Samsung Galaxy lol

I would say it's personal need..are there times you would be in different locations and need to get ahold of each other?

5 I phones here with Verizon..

and as far as apps go , here are a few that I use:
MyRadar ~ Fox29 (local news)~FW Sites (Disney)~ NFL Mobile~ NHL~ Instagram~ NASCAR ~ TV Towers ~ Compass ~ WAZE ~ ez Level ~ Loves Truck Stop ~ Woodalls ~ My Pilot truck services ~ Gas Cubby ~ The Weather Channel ~ CNN ~ Find my I phone ~ Google Maps ~ Tide Data ~ NOAA ~ Costco ~ a few local radio stations ~ Tornado ~ KOA ~ Zillow ~ CBS ~ ESPN ~ STORM ~ 8tracks ~ Coach-Net ~ Tip Calculator

we each have one as we're sometimes out doing separate errands and such.
