My partner is a doctor and he uses his iphone all the time. He's even got app's on there that can diagnose and discuss pretty much any ailment known to man. One of the funniest signs I have ever seen was at a hospital in Sydney which stated that doctors and nurses were exempt from the 'no mobiles in hospitals' rule because they had 'special' phones that didn't interfere with the equipment! I don't know about that particular hospital, but I'm pretty sure the iphone my partner has is exactly the same as mine. But in saying that I agree on two points. One, it's good to let your mind wind down sometimes and two, there would be nothing more annoying to a doctor than hearing you get to the next level of 'stick ninja' while they are busy saving lives. Especially when they know it's going to be another 10 long hours before they can beat the new high score. Ha ha those notices about using mobiles in hospitals are largely baloney.
