Unfortunately, it seems important to take a cell phone on my upcoming round-the-world trip:). I'm traveling light (taking one carry-on bag weighing no more than 10kg/22 lbs - the limit for many airlines) so taking my laptop is out of the question. But, what about a tablet and/or Kindle? I've decided not to bring the Kindle since it only has one function; it requires a different power cord than my phone; and because there is a Kindle app for the iPad.
My iPad mini uses the same power cord as my phone and basically provides a bigger screen for typing/viewing/reading; my dilemma is whether this bigger screen is worth the added weight and worry of keeping track of another electronic gadget. I'm leaning towards not bringing the iPad and instead upgrading to the larger iPhone 6. The biggest drawback I see to not bringing the iPad is the inability or difficulty reading my Kindle books, travel guides, etc. on the smaller phone screen.
Sometimes I feel guilty when I focus on such trivial decisions.
