It's like any other 'new' gadget, Ken. You never think you really need one until you have one, then you wonder how you've ever done without it all those years.
I was worried my smart phone would be smarter than me, and it was for a while
But I've caught up with it, and now know how to text, and send pictures, shoot video, get e-mail and everything! I even use it as an alarm clock and can work the GPS in a pinch. At first it was just a handy camera that would answer phone calls though.
