I got my first cell phone January of this year. I had started travelling enough for work that I really did need one for that -- but I've found it quite convenient at times, too. Like standing in the grocery store, and you know there's one more thing you were told to get, and you can't remember what it is...
Also, I travel a lot by motorcycle, as well as car, and it is a safety device for that -- I can get help if I need it.
Mine is pretty minimal in it's capabilities, too, as I just wanted a phone -- not a camera, not a mini-nintendo, etc.
I'm glad I have it, and do keep it on most of the time. Maybe as more people get the number, I'll have to turn it off at times.
