I talked to my wife about this. She is the phone person here.
She says the net capability is great for looking up part numbers, ordering things, checking documents that may be online etc. She also likes the online weather radar and forecasts to plan outside activities like scheduling work on the roof.
If none of this interests you, get a dumb phone like I have.
Here guys also use texting a lot for business communication but just about any phone does that.
