Hmm. Alarm clock. a cellphone's primary function, after being able to make phone calls...is its alarm clock, in fact its actually an alarm clock that can make phone calls.. I am pretty sure alarm clock sales have plummeted since the addition of the alarm function/application on cellphones. The phones third most important feature is its time keeping ability...Rolex? hah no..more like RoKR :D

In the beggining I used to use all/most of the apps on my phone...these days I just use outlook mobile, phone, alarm clock, "HTC Home page"'s huge clock :)

Got the P990i. Just a novelty thing really. I used most of the functions when I first bought it, now just for calls, sms's, mail and internet. Pretty much any phone can do that. I've even bought myself a 4gb stick, which I never use... there's just no time!
My next phone shall be a slim, stylish phone rather than a huge brick with tons of features which I never use.
