  Having hp means more work to do leh. You have to pick up when it rings and people normally come and find me to solve their problems. Sianz.... Sometimes din hear it, they will complain why I din listen or call back..
  
  Having a hp makes me feel I am slave to it.
  
  W/o caller ID, I will have excuse to not call back le, juz like some of my friends.

  Ya, those are some of the advantages.
  
  But I'm wondering if the disadvantages will outweight the advantages or vice versa ...

  a lot of functions require caller id to work, like missed calls, whether to accept or reject calls etc, usually call management services.

  Hmmm..... Your friends will complain why you din call back .... (for something that is not important or annoying )
  You will feel obligation to return call. Ignorance is bliss lo.
  and etc lo...

  I would rather not know what are the missed calls now.
  
  but for whether to accept or reject calls, I thought usually the screen will flash the numbers?

  YES! I'm thinking of ending my phone services but u know these days, cannot live w/o a hp lo.
  
  My plan is only approximate $20. If got those student or coporate rates, will surely be cheaper one.

  You mean when someone is calling you, the number will not appear on the screen while you are going to pick up the phone?
