I used to carry a phone, a PDA, an MP3 player, a radio and a GPS navigation device. Now I just carry my iPhone. Not only has it replaced 5 devices for me, but it also fills in for my laptop. I now don't often take my laptop with me unless I know I need to do some development, for email and web browsing away from my desk my iPhone is all I need most of the time. The iPhone might not be the best phone, music player, PDA, GPS device or radio. But it does a usable job of being all those devices in one, for me. It is good enough at all those tasks to make the compromises it bring more than bearable. -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ?
