You'll break down eventually. They are handy, especially the camera phones.
Weeks after a thread here about the purpose of a round pan with smalling,
shallow round indentations, when I said "silver dollar pancake pan!" and got
pooh-poohed by people claiming it was for some obscure something, I was in a
BB&B and saw the exact thing LABELED "SILVER DOLLAR PANCAKE PAN!" I forgot
to post it but I do still have it.

Also, last night my cat had a hilarious playing-like-a-crazed-monkey fit,
and I had my phone right there and caught video of the whole thing.

Then there is safety.

They there is when your land/cable line goes down.
