to take the basic smartphone I have... Of course the catch is that I am on a plan (the cheapest one)... but you have to pay in some way for air-time, and even pay-as-you go has minimums... honestly, the deal on the only flip phone available was no better (same minimum monthly cost, same or not as good upfront cost for the phone), but the ability to easily check TSN from the web at the side of the road with the smartphone is pretty valuable! I actually rarely use it to call and talk to people to be honest...
there are of course downsides (eg tracking, I know you don't like that)... and I get the tech luddite thing - I'm mostly the same... I've been forced into it to a large extent. I think it is kinda cool this ORIO thing... we'll see how it pans out! I agree that a laptop port would be useful also, depending on capability, cost, etc...
