look what’s in my hand – my iPhone, of course!
I hardly go anywhere without my iPhone. (This comes from someone who resisted for a long time buying a smartphone & I work in the IT field.)
I started out only using it as a phone.
That meant that I still carried a camera. (And I still prefer to take pictures with my camera.) Eventually, I got lazy and now I frequently use my iPhone as a camera. In fact, my last half marathon was the first time that I didn’t carry a camera to a race.
my iPhone is in my SpiBelt
Until recently, I listened to music on my iPod Shuffle (I love how small it is) but now I even use my iPhone for tunes (since I carry it anyway.)
iPhone is in my pocket
I do have some running apps (walkjogrun & runtastic) on it but I have yet to use them, I am pretty content with my Garmin 205.
As for my iPad (I got it at least a year before my iPhone), it is invaluable. I download books on it (though I do read real books for the most part), play Scrabble on it and most importantly, it keeps my sane on the treadmill.
I hardly ever watch real TV anymore.
I even prefer (if I have wifi) to read my e-mail or check Facebook on it. Maybe it’s my “old” eyes but I just like the large screen.
Happy Running! Do you have an iPhone or an iPad? If so, what do you use them for?
My First 5K and More... 
My mom just got an iPad 2 and she loves it! I have a kindle fire and it is just like a mini computer..except there’s no camera on it! I like runtastic’s timer app it’s great, you should check it out sometime! Blessings!

I use both. I use the notes section of my iPhone for shopping lists, to do lists, really anything that I need to remember. I also have a Runkeeper app that I use, a weather app, a dictionary and I have Netflix on it so that I can watch movies if I ever get completely bored….and that is just a few.

How do you watch tv on it? Netflix? Probably a dumb question but that might convince me to buy one.

at home, my cable co has an app & I can watch live tv anywhere in the house. At work, there is wifi & I have the abc, cbs, nbc, lifetime etc apps to watch all my favorite shows.

I have old eyes at 40. I like a large screen too!
I’ve been thinking about getting an Ipad, I think it would replace so many devices.

I WANT an iphone so badly! 🙂 I have an ipad and love it, but my husband steals it from me all the time so I end up on my laptop a lot.
I need to check into netflix so I’m interested in what the above person says about it.
