The debate around the need for some gadgets is exciting and please allow me to say something about it. Kirk and Jose, thank you for this insightful debate.
I’ve never used group SMS. I’m not sure if it is common in Europe. GPS, I still use the Apple maps. I have installed the Organic Maps, and I intend to use it often. We can use it offline. My future idea is to use the iPhone as a PDA without a sim card. I plan to use Mudita Pure (or the future generations) as a primary phone and share the internet through Bluetooth to the iPhone if I need internet somehow.
You can understand better my position about why I’m still using a smartphone by reading this my post, and we can discuss there if you wish: Mudita Pure: Making the offline online.
The roaming issue I believe that Mudita’s team will fix it quickly. I’m also not sure if this problem affects our fellow Europeans.
PS: I’m glad to have received an email confirmation of my Microsoft & Facebook “delete account.” I only have Instagram for my business page (I use it only through the browser), and I have Telegram for business and personal messenger/groups/channels. I’m still stuck on my google account due to my “smart” tv and youtube playlists, but I believe it is ok for now.
