In my case, I have a Garmin for GPS, which is much more reliable than any phone GPS I've used.

If you compare the quality of a point and shoot digital camera vs a smart phone, the digital camera will blow it out of the water. For me, it's about the quality of the photo, not the convenience.

We're lucky to have choices. That's the beauty of it.

My rule of thumb is that the best camera is the one you have with you. Seeing as I always have my iPhone with me, it's been the camera I go to most. I don't even know where my digital point and shoot is anymore.

Well, like I said, it's good to have choices. I carry around a point and shoot all the time. There's always one in the car. There's also one in my laptop bag. I routinely have a DSLR near me 90% of the time... then again, I'm a bit of a photography nut. That might explain it :)

I guess I'm an "audiophile" when it comes to photos.

I also have a hard time dealing with 192kbps mp3s. That damn cymbal compression sound is like nails on a chalk board.

If you can tell the difference between 192kbps and 320kbps in a blind test, I would say that is impressive.

I'm a musician and I have a few "audiophile" friends that say they can tell the difference, but when we conducted a blind test, they were basically just guessing.

I am not saying it's impossible, but there aren't many people that can hear the difference, I know I can't. Even with my Grado cans.

Garmins can't use Google to look up obscure locations or fix all your typos.

On the other hand, they don't ducking cause any ducking typos!
