There will always be those of us who do not believe that we have a real NEED for a smart phone. The number of us may be decreasing, but we will always be here.
You are probably correct. There will always be a few that do not see the value of having so much in such a small package that actually replaces other things that you might not need either like GPS, data on fuel stations, restaurants, weather, traffic ahead, internet connectivity, e-mail, texting, voice commands, etc. I suspect you came into the computer age thinking that personal home computers would never be needed. I have just about decided a landline phone can now be added to my not needed list as the cell technology does all that and much more.
Most responses here favor smart phone technology for RV travelers. The issue about no coverage in some rural areas pales in comparison to the areas they do work very well. Maybe the cell coverage glass is half full for some of us as we look at this issue and half empty for those that look at it the way you seem to.
Anyway differences of opinions are what make the forums interesting. Thanks for posting.
