I decided to chuck my PDA "smartphone" and go back to a Franklin planner. I also chucked my Treo 650 and got a cheap flipphone off of eBay for $40. It's nice to sit in front of my planner and not have to type a password to open it - or worry if it will run out of batteries. I just pull the pen out of the slot and remind myself what it is like to lay ink down on paper. I take all my meeting notes - not worrying how to type an asterisk or a period. My cheap flip phone is also cool. Just flip it open and say the name of the person I want to talk to. No camera, no web browser, no silly rings, no crappy tiny keyboard, no crappy spread sheet and word processor. Ahhhhh - good times, good times. and I don't care much for the new iPhone.
