But yeah, I know what you mean. My iphone is a very large part of my life now, more than I'd like, honestly... but I went through my entire youth without a cell phone at all. I didn't have a phone until i was 21. Didn't even have the internet until I was 17.
Smartphones, easily available wifi, and many of the resources one can find on the internet today weren't even common things when I was in college, all the way through 2005.
It is staggering to think of how different the life of a highschooler today is from my own experiences.
We (the older guys... thirtysomething+ especially) are to the new generation what the "old folks" were to us... the people that remember life without color television, or the people that remember sitting around the radio at night with the family. Or to them, the people that never had an automobile. Or to them, indoor plumbing in highly populated areas.
I'm about to tie an onion to my belt and reminisce about the good ol' days.
