You can access it on the interne pct, and send reminders to individual cell phones :) Each kid can log-in with the family password and add things, (outings, dances, YW and Scouting events) It makes it easy to keep everything organized. Did I mention there's a grocery list? You can also set up Christmas wishlists for the kids to make being Santa easier.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my iPhone. I am compulsive with keeping me and everyone around me organized. I just figured out how to use mobile me after almost a year. The calendar is the best this in the world, now that I can sync it with my mac, mobile me and phone. I have the Shopper and Things app listed above and can't rave enough about them. My friends who have had nothing but Blackberry's have now converted themselves and can't get enough of the iPhone either. To me it's the most comperhensive phone available. I will not have another as long as I can get my hands on an iPhone. I totally agree with you. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my iPhone. I am compulsive with keeping me and everyone around me organized.

You can read .pdb files on the ereader app. There is also a scripture application. For awhile my lesson manual was tossed out of my sunday bag to make room for a coloring book or puzzle for my 2 year old during sacrament meeting. Now I can have my lesson manual and scriptures without adding any extra weight.

I've been trying for weeks and can't seem to figure out how to add new catagories or edit the two existing ones! Any help would be appreciated. :) How do you work the color-coded calendar?

I was totally resisting, I love my Blackberry. My hubby and son got one, I don't even think they use all their stuff on it. I was playing with my husband's the other day and found a magic eighball app, bubblewrap popping game, and a lighter! They are free apps, now I want one for all the fun extra stuff☺.

Are dropped calls a problem with the i phone, or is it still simply an service area thing? I can't wait for my stupid service agreement to run out so I can change providers and get one!...and get my brother to stop making fun of my crappy old flip phone! :) Is it pathetic that I just got a rush of excitement when you mentioned the list maker!?

Be organized enough to load all the calendars, agendas, etc. I do it already on paper. In fact I still use a knock off copy of a grocery list you gave me years ago that works great. I keep it on my fridge and just put an x by it if I run out. But I would love to cut through the paper eventually & go green! Thanks for the input- Some day I’m going to do that.

But, now? Wow!! I REALLY like you! I told my husband that he's very lucky that he just got me an iPhone. Otherwise I'd be forwarding him this post with my own comments of, "See? MeckMom has an iPhone. She says it's a great ORGANIZATIONAL tool! Do you know how much stuff I could get done if I had one, too???" Can't wait to check out the flashcard app. That's too cool! My husband's favorite app is Things. It's a little pricey, but the desktop version is REALLY full-featured and the app is a great companion piece. Probably one of the best 'to do' list programs out there. I'm demo-ing the desktop version before purchasing the app for my own phone... Thanks for the great post! I always knew I liked you.
