Going back to a “non-smart” phone – why I want to, but can’t quite do it

Instead of reading or replying to things as soon as they come in, I just silence everything on my phone except phone calls. That way, I check emails, texts, tweets, etc. at my convenience. It interrupts me only when necessary.

Has anyone ever experimented with deleting/disabling features on an Android phone?

I'm always curious what it'd be like to have a "smart" phone with no email or web browser, but still GPS and a camera.

I'd like to work on my nervous habit of taking out my phone and checking HN/email/Twitter, etc all the time.

I use a pretty awful phone, and have a iPod touch that can get on wireless. I'd say I miss not having a smartphone about once a month, which is acceptable.

I just don't use twitter, facebook, etc. So I'm not in habit of answering a bunch of BS notifications all day.
