Olly needs an iPhone, does he?

by

In Episode 92, Olly said he needed an iPhone. Subsequently, you listeners are being a bad influence on him – egging him on first is Matt from Cambridgeshire:

All I can say is: Olly, GET ONE!!

I brought mine a couple of months ago and haven’t looked back. The amount of apps/games available to download is mind boggling. Not to mention downloading podcasts or TV/film straight to it. I really can’t recommend it enough.

Sounds fun and all, but I still dispute that he needs one. But Gareth from London takes me to task:

I beg to differ in your statement “Nobody NEEDS an iPhone!”

After using one for over a year, I quite literally couldn’t do without mine. Using the automatically synced calendar, push email, and updating contacts, this functionality keeps me organised and in contact.

Let alone the maps function, which has got me out of an awful lot of sticky situations where I have been very, very lost in London when I first moved here!

Let alone the Twitter and Facebook apps… which are actually quite worryingly addictive! 😉 oh – and Tap Tap Revenge, which is basically guitar hero for iPhone!!

Indispensable as knock-off Guitar Hero on the move sounds, I propound, Gareth from London, that you COULD literally do without yours, seeing as you managed to do that very thing until a year ago without being eaten by a lion, scuttling your ship or losing all of your shoes. So bearing in mind that ‘need’ is not quite the same creature as ‘want’ or ‘find moderately useful’, answer us this:
