Cos I don't own one.

So the iPhone one is free and I don't have to go to the shop to buy it.

If your point is why use a virtual one when you have the real thing, then I agree - if I owned one then I wouldn't ever have thought of using the iPhone one.

I've been working in technology for years, so I don't use this stuff for fun. Just when it is practical, and some of the stuff on the iPhone is fantastic that way.

One of the best apps is a Radio app which allows you to listen to internet radio stations without having to turn the bloody computer on. I was able to listen to the Poof Rugby on the Denver sports station the other night as I lay in bed.

Just a shame Radio bloody Norfolk doesn't broadcast on the internet when Norwich games are on (in order for PLTV to make their millions). These days I have to be home during the whole game, but it would be great to just have it on the phone.
