I like my phone too. We don't have a land line in the house, just a cell phone in both my pocket and my wife's. No matter where we are in the world, one phone number will find me. I too check YT and craigslist on my phone, (how I found a NH 65 baler from Steve-WI on this board for my brother) I check the weather, look up parts diagrams and google pictures of machines like I'm looking at, check my email, etc...
That comes in extremely handy when doing a deal on parts or equipment and a quick response is wanted. All of the pictures I've taken all summer have been taken with my phone. When doing repairs like has been mentioned, it's handy to take a picture before you tear it apart as reference for reassembly as well as comparing to the picture on the parts website, or just looking up the parts right there while knee deep in mud.
While I can function without my phone, it is amazing how much better I can function when I have this information at my fingertips in the middle of a field. I text back and forth with my dad when we are filling silo bags or other forms of fieldwork. Can't hear the phone over the engine, but you can send a quick text and he checks his phone before he heads back out my way. (bring tool box, 3 wagons loaded, SOS, whatever)

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
