You are on the slippery slope of smart phone additction. BTDT

My dad gave me his old original iPhone. I played with it just like you are doing. I kept finding neat things it could do. I drank the kool-aid. I carry an iPhone 4 - 32 gig with unlimited data plan now. My wife has a 16 gig version, and an iPad and we have a Apple TV.
i doubt it. i recognize it for what it is, even more now that i have one in my possession. its a toy. plain and simple. it kept my son entertained for almost four hours, only interrupted by me putting him in bed without the toy.

in fact, the main purpose i can see for it in the future for ME is pandora while i am working in the garage.

for my son, i am betting that this thing teaches him to read and write before he is four. and math.
