Even his kids sleep with his iPhone

The true fanatics seem to love their iPhones almost as much as their children. It's not true, of course, because sometimes the kiddies just can't hack the competition.

I'm going to presume that Louis Gray -- tireless blogger/twitterer, marketing professional, father of 5-month-old twins -- falls into the former category and only seems to love his phone more than his children.

Gray writes on his blog:

It's really getting to the point where I believe my iPhone can do anything. You've already heard me say I sleep next to it, and that it should practically run unopposed in the smartphone market. But what you don't understand is that it is rapidly finding new roles and new ways to get intertwined with my life. The newest role is helping to put the twins to sleep, thanks to the AOL Radio application, and that app's Lullabies radio station - which shockingly extends beyond the Brahms Lullaby, offering music even I found fun to hear, from new mixes of U2's "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" to a cover of Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters."

As a father of triplets, I can empathize, and appreciate the use of any means at one's disposal ... although I'm not sure about the Metallica business.
