Re: I'll...

"I'm going to find the heart rate monitor useful"

Another one of those things - you can then monitor your heartrate 24/7 if you so wish. But what does that heart rate (and/or blood pressure) even tell you? "Look - I've just walked up the stairs at a leisurely pace, I'm out of breath and my heart is at 110bpm. I'm out of shape." "Wow, I just lay on the couch for an hour, and I'm down to 20bpm - way lower than my mate who can only get down to 40bpm."

"it'll be nice to reduce the cacophony of dings and dongs from my phone."

Ever heard of silent mode?

"Not to mention reducing the possibility of being robbed every time I pull out my iSchlong in public."

Wow, where do you live where an iPhone still (this is 2015!) gets robbed off you whenever you take it out?
