Probably an I Phone like the wife's. It's nice although weird to hold up
to your ear, when you use it in that most primitive of communications
modes.... as a phone!!! The things are designed with nice touch
screens for typing text and surfing the net... My wife can log in from
on her horsie or at the MX track and handle small server issues or
billing, etc... Many websites are designed with these things in mind and
the touch zoom features most of these things have makes it not so bad to
navigate websites, find food or whatever on the road, get a phone number
and address of a store you just decided to visit. Really not bad if you
need that sort of access. Me, I just call her and let her look it up for
me...

Wife told me that was an IPod on the table. She knows this stuff too.
Worked with a guy who had a blue-tooth thing. The thing that wraps
around your ear.
Probably 25 times he was walking towards me and talking to somebody
else.
Fooled me the first 20 times. "What? Speak up." I'd say.
Then he'd do a 180, walk in the other direction still talking.
I never got used to it, but I think he learned to turn around before
he got close to me.
