You have had your replacement iPhone for two weeks and you haven't put your new invisa shield on it because you can't find twelve hours for it to dry that your sure you won't need the thing.

Saves me getting up to turn the alarm off and is good for listening to some tunes if I'm not that tired.

When you have nearly all 11 Home Screens filled with Apps. Oh and when you take it with you nearly everywhere. This thread should apply to iPod touch too! ;P

When you try to zoom in on your mac display with a pinch gesture.

Sad but sometimes true.

You put up with the crashes and freezes for the sake of carrying around a computer in your pocket.

My BodyGuardz protective film is still sitting around for two months now since I don't have the time to let it dry as well.

Also, I know I'm addicted to the iPhone when...

-when I remembered halloween coming up, my first idea for a costume was iPhone!
-I kissed my iPhone when I was drunk.... kinda embarrassing lol
-I smile when someone asks me to do something for them on my iPhone, such as going on Google Maps to find some place
-the only time when it's more than two meters away from is when I'm in the shower
-sometimes I go on Facebook on my iPhone when I'm sitting literally in front of my turned on MacBook

My next goal for level of addiction: text without looking at it. Tried that a few times, and to my surprise I'm actually not too bad at that, although improvement is necessary

That's pretty much all I think of right now.. but, I think I'm pretty addicted..
