So he basically doesn't have a phone? That's pretty hardcore.

Actually not so much, I basically only use the phone on the move, 99% of the other things I do them in my laptop. I even do more laptop calls (skype, hangouts) than phone calls.
At least not a smartphone. That's my case as well, very happy with my dual-sim Nokia 216. The internet can always wait until I'm back home or at work.
for me personally smartphone is just more convenient than telling out laptop, opening it, waiting for start compared to smartphone always running at hand and seem by looking at statistics most of the people are in same boat and PC is dying

He probably doesn't use a smartphone, as some of us don't including myself, given the total impossibility to achieve decent privacy and data security under any mobile operating system.

I wonder what he thinks of the Pandora or the Pyra
Laptop, SSH, paper :). I wasn't a heavy mobile user in general and only got interested in cellphones when they became more PC-like. So with 3.5 years in F-Droid, I only have about 4-5 years of actual mobile phone usage. Coming from a more old-school unix environment, reverting back.
