I love my iPhone. I don't do much game playing, not that many phone calls. I do text, and email when I am away from home. I can download books from the library free to listen to and to read. Maapquest has a free GPS app that talks to me, much like the regular GPS. There are free quilting apps. Free recipe apps. All from either sitting on my couch, while someone else is driving, waiting in line, etc. The screen is big enough for me. I'm retired, age 67. I don't think age has much to do with it. I get a lot of enjoyment from my iPhone. I'm glad there are many options so we can all get what we need, like, and enjoy!!!!
