heh, whereas my 'mobile' is used as a telephone about 20% of the time, the rest its an internet tool, TV streamer, camera/video recorder, media/games machine plus more.

thing is there is always those moments where your stood queuing, or waiting for something, SWMBO trying another 6 new frocks on, doctors running 2 hours behind....

once you get used to using a mobile for the stuff they can do now you can entertain yourself instead of just being bored senseless.


even just a quick game of soitaire or catching up on BBC news or listening to "Radio Crinklies" :D

I don't feel the need to be constantly entertained.
Spells of doing nothing work wonders for peace of mind
