I don't have an iPhone, I have an ancient LG VX5200 (or something like that) whose features I have yet to use more than a dozen of (call, receive, text, photo, calendar, contact book).

I spent upwards of 12 hours every day working on a computer, with a 1600x1200 main screen and a 1280-wide secondary screen, and the last thing I want is the temptation to stare at some tiny cramped screen in my hand for the other 6 hours I'm awake.

But I'm glad Apple's doing well with the product line.

The funny thing is that looking at a movie on an iPod-sized screen is equivalent to watching a large screen TV from across a room.

Turns out that on the iPhone I can carry around the service and owner’s manual, in PDF format, of every vehicle I own. Quite handy.

More importantly, the PDF rendering engine isn’t some hacked together pile slapped on top of Windows Mobile, so the PDF’d wiring diagrams are actually visible and legible - and therefore useful.

so... when will there calls to ban iphones in moving vehicles? after all, all those gadgets on the tiny screen are very distracting while you drive
