My phone, which I've had since May, is Android. I usually it mostly for Twitter, email and web browsing when I'm away from my desktop (this now includes being downstairs by the television - I use it in preference to the notebook unless I need to do serious typing). Occasionally for text and Skype, in dire emergency as a phone - I'm always rather horrified when it rings.

I took it on two short trips to mainland Europe last year, and it was invaluable for both (not just because I could download my boarding pass and wave it at the airport machines). My sister has no home internet, and after my last visit there I don't think I would have gone if I hadn't been sure I could still get online. I think even she perceived it had been useful when we were able to express immediate sympathy in a family crisis (our brother's family's dog died) rather than not finding out for three days.
