Just a while back a buddy asked me to come over to his house and help him with a computer problem. I had been to his house once before several years ago. I remembered about where but when I got into his neighborhood I remembered there were several strange turns. I just punched the button for Siri and asked for directions to my buddy place and she told me just where to turn. I likely could have found it after driving around a little but the phone sure made it simple.

The other day I needed a replacement ballast for a light in the closet. I just scanned the bar code on the old ballast. My phone pulled up the exact model and brand of that ballast. It also listed the cross reference for the equivalent ballast. I drove to the store and KNEW that I was getting the correct ballast.

The weather app are likely the most important apps I have. I have one that knows where I am and if there is any storm warning it tells me. I can track a storm with color RADAR and even watch live TV if there is a tornado warning.

The list is endless. I understand it is expensive for the data plan. Typically 30 bucks a month plus the other fees. As I mentioned, I drank the kool-aid and I am addicted.
