No way, it's my main source of contact with work for extra shifts, friends, internet, GPS tracking, airline bookings, appointments, reminders, email, weather, news and most of all it contains my entire music library which i'm always listening to.

@solitaire I don't think it's busier than anyone elses, but i just use my smart phone's features as a central way to manage them all. Before my phone i'd have to keep a paper diary which was too big to put in my pocket. I'd make notes to myself then get home and make lots of phone calls which often meant phone queues at busy times because everyone had the same idea, or getting a messaging service that they'll call you back etc. The new system cuts through most of that, email and text is so much more efficient from a business appointment perspective and best of all you can make changes when you're at work on your break or out anywhere etc. I could go back to the old system but wouldn't like it.
