[From Freda] I've enjoyed reading everyone's articles and jewels of wisdom on their mobile/Palm usage. It truly is difficult to imagine life before all this wonderful technology. I visited a dear friend in the hospital this weekend while hubby waited in the car with the children. Of course, the directions to the hospital were already in my TX in case we got lost. After the visit, we went to lunch with a friend. Service at the restaurant was unbearably slow. As many of you with kids know, when young children are hungry, they are hungry! My friend (who happened to be the person who introduced me to PDAs with her hand-me-down Palm IIIc years ago) is always on the cutting edge of technology. She is now on an I-Phone. She took out her I-Phone and started taking pictures of the children to occupy them until the food arrived. Thankfully, this kept them entertained for the duration of the wait. Another example of mobile usage to the rescue!
