Finally, once in a while the phone is nice to have if coming across anything scenic I might want a photo of.
Same here though I don't use the phone to link to the family, but I do use it to pinpoint my location on the larger paper map I carry.
I'm usually on call, so I have to keep it on; and I take photos on the road. I keep the phone handy, either in an inside front pocket in my safety vest, or a holster I have
improvised (link).
