Well, you know, I didn't really have a cell phone until May. I still use it mostly as a watch, since I can't find my wrist watch. And it's a pay-as-you-go, not a smart phone.
I didn't have internet at home until 2007, when I moved into the apartment I have now. Didn't really own a computer that could do anything til 2007, when I went back to grad school and bought a lap-top.
Now I find it almost impossible to live without internet access. Even brought my computer with me on vacation. But I think I could go without it from time to time. For me, it's mostly a means of staying in touch with friends, via e-mail and LJ. I'm not much of a facebook person.
It would be hard but not impossible to give it up. Besides, there are so many free knitting patterns on the internet. ;-)
