  One time I was working with a coworker on a UUV on the manufacturing floor. I paused to look something up on my Android and I told him "I love this -- it's like a secondary brain in my pocket." Guy from manufacturing happens along. "I've got a secondary brain in my pocket too. It gets me in trouble most of the time."
