I can access emails, send text, type notes, sync with iCal and Address Book, and I can play my music in the car. Are you near an Apple Store? The people there would love to spend time with you and help you learn more about the iPhone. Word to the wise: Apple is holding their Worldwide Developers Conference 06/09 - 06/13 where they are expected to announce the iPhone 2.0 Hey Dawn,

Go to a store and check one out. Yeah, I bought the iphone because i needed to replace my phone, but like PhoenixRising, I know a number of folks who considered their iphone a life-changing purchase.

I've used a mobile email device since Nov. 2003. I work similarly to you and I can't believe you've gone this long without the ability to accept assignments while lifeguarding your kids. Go now. Get an iPhone. I can explain more about why you don't need to bother with all the alternatives on Pam and RIM OSes, but I have a Mac network too, and no need to copy my leanring curve. Get an iPhone. It will pay for itself the first time you bill completed work from the park. Get an iPhone.

I think the difference is being self employed. One of the great things about it is that when you are slow work-wise, you can take off. But it is still good to be connected because you are right, sometimes when clients need it quickly, they do need a response in order to plan their projects. Responsiveness is big, big.
