> The best phone I ever owned was a Nokia 6310i Which is nice and everything, but for me nowadays the phone part of a mobile device tends to be among the least used of its core features. For every call I make, I'm probably sending dozens of long text messages, taking dozens of high resolution photographs, reading dozens of web pages, listening to dozens of songs, investigating maps, writing notes and playing games. We're no longer even talking about the same product segment. A modern smartphone is more of an iPod than a phone. More of a Palm Pilot than a phone. More of a GameBoy than a phone. More of a handheld GPS than a phone. More of a laptop than a phone. More of a camera than a phone. These aren't inefficient phones, they're not phones.
