I finally got my first cell phone. I was happy with just a landline but it worked out to be cost effective to switch to a smartphone and cut my landline. We discussed it here:

I see the benefit to texting and I do that now. I get wind reports on it so it's great for windsurfing.
The problem is my wife and family want me to respond on it like they do, almost non-stop and compulsive.
I answered a voice call driving like I promised I'd never do. I did make a dash mount so it's a legal hands-free phone now.
When I set up voicemail I want it to say "I don't respond by voice, please email or text me" That seems faster and less hassle.
I originally said I'd leave it at home and only take it with me if I was gone all day. Now I feel like I'm getting sucked into the compulsion to take it everywhere.
Any tips for a recent landline cutter who's never had a cell phone?
