For what you use cell phone?

[HCSC]

OK peoples. For what you use cell phone? Except for communication (voice, text message...).

... is for organization (to-do, memo, notes), for business e-mail, is for Internet, or you use like MP3 player, or like camera, maybe for play games, maybe for IM, or for rewrite school test/exam or for something else.

I want hear you....

Me: usually for organization (to-do, memo, notes), Internet, MP3 player and for play game (Tetris). Less for IM but sometimes yes. And of course for communication.

Email.. Soon for directions, Contact storage, AIM, texting heavily..

currently:
I do TONS of text messaging. I average about 2,200-2,800 texts sent/received per month on my TMO Shadow. Very few phone calls made, average 100-150 minutes of allowed 700.
Very little gaming. No internet. Lots of pic messaging.

after getting the G1:
Plan on more text messaging (glad there is threaded messaging). More pic messaging.
About same on calls. Little internet browsing planned. Little YouTube browsing. More Google Map use though, as I just returned my GPS device.

If anyone can confirm the ability to connect to, read and write to Google Docs, then ... I will be using GDocs too.

I would like that info too. My wife and I are wanting to use GDocs. I created a calendar for myself yesterday. I need to download the Outlook plug-in that will sync with GCal so I can sync my work calendar.

Yeah The android phone has support for most of google applications. So syncing won't be an issue.

I curently have a Treo 650 and use Mail (Gmail push by Chatteremail), calendar, and memos. Speaking of memos, does Android/Google have anything to write a quick memo in? AFAIK there is nothing and I consider that a major minus. I keep loads of things in my memos (cloth sizes, screen wiper sizes, new movie titles, shooping lists etc etc etc) so I would really love to have that on my next (hopefully Android) phone.
Google could also benefit from that, there is a lot to find out about people and there habits/interests from what they write in these memos.
I also think Google should have a feature that enables me to attach memos to emails I receive from others.
Se please Google, give us MEMOS!

You ever use lists for your memo needs?
I have been using RTM (RememberTheMilk.com) for my lists for a long time now. Just got to using smart-lists. It is a web based application.
I will most likely use it in some way on my home-screen (if I figure out how) to keep tabs on my ever-growing tasks.

Don't worry, if there isn't already, there'll be an app for it soon.

 

[Souldelay]

you used your phone as a remote? How?

There was a cab file for it at XDA Developers that enabled that. I could've also used it as a garage door opener. But I live in an apartment building, so it wouldn't have worked. There were so many things I could do with my phone. But after a while, features like that lose its luster.

 

[HCSC]

the name for remote, please.

 

[GODMODE]

1) Email
2) Calendar
3) Phone Calls
4) Email / Text
5) Web browsing
6) GPS / Information

...wow.
Can it grab beers from the fridge, too? Because, seriously. This needs to happen at some point in time.

I only wish. But I think we train pets (wives as well) for that!

 

[Souldelay]

If a future husband ever tried to train me to "fetch beers from the fridge," I think it'd be closely followed by divorce...

 

[phoenixar]

news via rss feeds. I have the Google Reader bookmark on my homepage. No more newspapers for me! yay!

lol whenever my guy (well, when i have one) says "beer me" i automatically get up, open the beer and hand it to him

 

[Souldelay]

Can't say I really aspire to make that an automatic response for myself...
