Ahhh, a literalist.
But yes, they're all in my pocket.

Yeah, and a day or so ago, someone on here was slamming the things as basically useless.

Weii, no, unless your pocket can fit a boombox with big speakers. How are you going to bother a whole neighborhood with the puny sound that comes out of a phone?
I take the point, though. These are the days of miracles and wonder.

People are still reacting to the genius that went into the smartphone as conceived by Apple's team. It disrupted many, many markets, and gave us questionable habits and superpowers we didn't know we needed.
I'm grateful not to use a VHS camera with separate recorder. But I use my mirrorless camera for serious video. I'm grateful for the demise of the portable cassette and CD players. But I still use a portable radio from 1980 in my copy stand room.
Many apps on my phone get daily, weekly, or monthly usage. Many of them also work on my Mac, so they're part of my routine. Either way, it's nice to be able to use a couple devices for many different tasks, rather than having to rely on all sorts of clunky, dedicated hardware.
