I have 2 phones and I would happily have none. My work phone is basically a calendar and email with some time-wasting junk on it (games etc). My personal phone is an mp3 player and a phone, but the damn things drive me crazy because people always want an answer NOW! and the phones need charging every day, at least once.
I have now left a programming book in the bathroom because reading up on something useful is a much better use of the now shorter time spent there than playing to get to the next level/high score.
Phones now feel oppressive where once they felt amazing. I think of all the great artists that came before us and I wonder if we are 'missing' great music or art from the alternative timeline in which a generation is not wasting time on shooting birds at pigs.
