My cellphone bill is $300. a month, but that's for four of us, and the two boys pay their parts. It's lots of money but we all depend on them for lots of things.
I use mine for texts, internet searches, GPS, golf rangefinder/gps, pretty sophisticated camera (still and video). I listen to books in MP3 format, which I download free from the local library. It's also an internet hub so I can connect my laptop when needed. Many use theirs for music players. I have used it a time or two, when I didn't have the the laptop with me, to look up lyrics/chords for requests. I even use it for PHONE CALLS! It is also important in my position as auxiliary deputy sheriff, which I do about once a week. In addition, if I have a problem while on the lake in my bass boat, I can reach somebody for help, or someone can reach me if there is an emergency. And it is tax-deductible, at least the part used for work.
My wife uses hers a LOT for communication, photos, texts and phone calls, both related to her job and personally.
One of my sons is in internet security and often uses his in relation to his job. We all use them to stay in communication with one another. I can pick it up and instantly talk to my other son and grandsons in Oklahoma, and see them when I talk to them! Amazing!
Next to my keyboard, it is my most important piece of gear!
Back to the subject. I wouldn't hesitate to spend a bunch of money on an arranger, and I remember spending about $7,000. for an organ, before arrangers. That was a lot of money then, and I paid dealer cost
for it! And then you needed, Leslie, dolly, big P.A., high-end mixer, and a big van to haul the stuff in.
I'm lucky that I can now have the current arranger best suited for my needs, for about half the price of the Genos. Still if the Genos was twice as good, or maybe even 10 percent better, I would consider it. In my opinion, for me, it is not even as good as what I have. However, as about 99 percent of us, I haven't seen or played one, so I don't KNOW that, but can only make a semi-educated guess. I won't even go out of the way to audition one, since I'm not in the market. I'm a happy camper--great cell phone, great arranger, great job, great family, great friends, great life!
