mathfag here, need to buy a new cell phone. Looking at smart phones. Android specifically. Not sure if it's worth it.

What do you fags use your phones for? Anything I should take into account while choosing one?

>What do you fags use your phones for?

Making phone calls.

I meant to say, does a smartphone offer any value to a mathfag/sciencefag?

Yes this is true. I do not receive text messages often either. My smartphone is useful as an internet device.

On my Droid 3 right now. Great phone once you flash 4.0 to it. Using it for internet browsing (90% 4chan), weather radar (lots of thunderstorms around here) emails, Wolfram Alpha, news, whatever.

So, thinking about it It'd mainly be useful as an internet device and for taking pictures of my whiteboard and shit.

I like giving away my physical location to technology companies and pay while doing it.
