Ordinarily, I check my phone about every 4 seconds. I am, however, not bothered by this fact. On the contrary, I'm tickled to death that I love my phone so much.
But I read your post and decided to give this a try. It's been all of a day now, and here is the verdict:
1) I still check my phone about every 4 seconds.
2) However, I enjoy it even more now. It just looks a lot nicer in gray. This experiment made me realize that the color adds pretty much nothing to my experience, and just tends to distract and annoy me. So now I might go to checking my phone every 3 seconds instead of 4. I am, in any event, not even slightly tempted to ever go back to color.
3) I'd hoped this might help with battery life, but based on this one-day experiment, it looks like my battery runs down at about exactly the same rate as ever. That's too bad, but this whole thing is still a definite win.
