Please tell me it's worth the cost to get a smartphone!

[Zen]

. I use the Calendar app to remind me to take my weekly vitamin D supplement, that I have an upcoming doctor's appointment, the kid has a dental appointment, and the like; I use the Clock app to wake me up, remind me to feed the meter, go to a meeting, and so on.

For those calendar things I use a datebook and my email calendar. Both are free.
Except for the alarm, I use my brain to remember stuff. I know there are naysayers but it's pretty reliable.

Still working on my alarm function.
