I recently upgraded to a smartphone. I had been holding out because I couldn’t justify the need or the expense. When I am working from home, in engineering mode, I’m sitting in front of the computer all day. I’ve got a phone right next to me on the desk. What more do I need?
And when I’m out hiking, the last thing I want is to be connected.
But all of that changed with the travel associated with the pinball and jukebox repair. I need to be able to check e-mail, traffic, add reminders to a to-do list, check appointments, and find myself when I get lost out in the plains of eastern Colorado.
