Mine is on all the time, except for church, hospital visits etc. Then I put it on vibrate. I put it on the charger every night because I use it for work.

Always on, always with me, and charged every two days. I hate carrying the damn things but business is business.

Mine stays in the cup holder in my truck plugged into the cig. lighter. Seldom use it except for work on the road. Very few people have my cell #. I have never gone over my 100 minutes in four years. Free incoming calls.

I don't want people calling me 24/7. Call my home # and leave a message. Don't have call waiting either.

Mine is always on, and always close. That's why I have it, so all the people that said "I can never find you" can...
It goes on the charger every night when I dump all the other junk out of my pockets. Just makes sense to me.

I charge mine every night before I go to bed and it is on all the time, it is how i keep in contact with my girlfriend while I'm at home and college, she lives 30 minutes from my house and 2 hrs from my college, so yeah, not exactly the easiest to see all the time, so talking on the phone works just as well, it has for a year next monday

24/7 charge every 3 days or so. I have an installed car kit for the phone so on trips more than 10 minutes I put it in the cradle to charge. No land line for the past 6 years, wires are for the birds.
