There are tons of iPhone apps out there for musicians, but I'm wondering what actually gets used the most.
While I like what the iPhone has available, if I wasn't synced up to my Blackberry twenty-five hours a day I'm not sure I'd ever actually arrive anywhere. Not many musician-friendly apps but I can't stay organized to save my life without the thing. I keep a six-year-old Nokia around just in case I need a spare, some old flip phone that has been dropped in water and chewed up by a dog and the thing keeps working. Doesn't do much but make calls, but it does that well.
What are you guys using? How's it working out? For you non-smartphone users, why are you holding out?

So yeah, data plan rates suck big ones.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Columbus, Ohio | | | I'm getting ready to switch companies. I've been with Sprint for over 10 years now but their data plans for my wife and I are way too high so I'm thinking about moving to Virgin Mobile here in a month and getting a Black Berry. Until then I still have my trusty, beat-to-death Sanyo Katana II from Sprint.

Data plans are even worst ($ wise) in Canada from what I've seen to. |
