Don,

I can't imagine reading The Caver on my iPhone. 
Dangerous, anyway, in the vicinity of a toilet!  I lost a Motorola Flip-Phone 
that way,

Yes,

Also storing things in your shirt pockets around open water wells creates 
certain opportunities you don't want to deal with.

I like to have printed members manuals with me when I

be passing through or are looking for a place to stay, break down and 
need help, etc.  Access to online information is not always available.

You are right, Minton. I forgot to mention that. Carrying a Members Manual
in the car can be invaluable on long road trips or just making a visit to
somebody's house. It can, of course, be loaded into a phone or palm pilot or
similar device. But I like paper, especially if I have to take notes--as in
directions to somewhere.

I have hooked up with trips, crashed on a number of caver floors, and generally 
enjoyed caver hospitality as a result of travelling with the Members Manual.  
So what if most of my such experiences are ancient history?  I know that a good 
number of younger cavers still do the same, and I don't rule out doing so (or 
offering my own floor) again.

I don't own one (and don't want one) but have found them to be more confusing 
than helpful in locating an address. They give you six directions to get out of 
your driveway and sub division. I prefer a Key Map.
