In many cases it works well, but it is the times when you run into newer technology that it can get frustrating. Googling, checking weather (on the right sites), and so forth all work well. Keep in mind that the apex has relatively light hardware and an older operating system, so it can't keep up with a computer (and let's face it, the iPhone may as well be a computer - dual core processor and 512mb ram). So, it's a tough call, but I think having the use of a second device will prove increasingly useful in future.
