Having fallen in love at first sight with my iPhone, the honeymoon period has come to an abrupt end. If I actually manage to have a conversation longer than 30 seconds without activating the MUTE button with my ear then I have to spend the subsequent 30 seconds wiping the touchpad/screen clean of dirty fingerprints.

I can’t help but wonder if an intelligent keyboard has really made my life easier, whether watching music videos in widescreen whilst on the go was really a requirement and if instant access to the world’s stock exchanges will help me understand them any better. Or does it just look good when someone calls me…………..?
