No Laptop....


However, this time I thought I'd risk taking just the iPhone to see how I fared.
No edge connection (as the iPhone is unlocked and running on a temporary SIM) but the good news was that the Hotel had free wifi in the bar - result!
So how did I manage - surprisingly well!
The mail client built into the iPhone is great and I was able to read all my mail, sort into urgent and not so urgent, respond to the urgent ones and file those for later action into a subfolder. Check out this weeks show for how I have my email configured.
But along with email I was able to tweet and read my RSS feeds just as easily as at Home.
Where it really surprised me was in the usefulness of Internet browsing to check on various bits and pieces - locations, place names, sporting stuff, basically everything at your fingertips! No to mention, passing round the iPhone to view clips and articles on thins we chatted about during the evening!
It really is a remarkable, game changing platform.
Oh and as an aside, Prague is an absolutely beautiful city and highly recommended. I was also surprised to see a large number of Macs in and around the town including a number of Macbooks and iMacs.

Yes I too am amazed with just how much you can get done on such a small device - in fact I have almost reached a point where I prefer reading my feeds using Google Reader on my iPhone instead of my Mac - the world is changing...
