Do you use your password lock?

Do you use your password lock for security purposes or do you think it's a nuisance? Your thoughts?

Yes, I use mine.

I definitely use mine. It's a little bit of a nuisance, but I think Apple did it well. Now if it could just ready my thumbprint that would be nice.

At home I do not, but when I am out its always on.

You have to! The iPhone attracts so much attention and people love to play with one that is not theirs. I lock mine so if people find it around my house, they cannot get into it.

haha yea I do, there's no way iam letting other people use my phone without me knowing, also that fingerprint idea... Do you think that could be possible since this is a touch screen and all, a fingerprint unlocking would be amazing.

i love to use it, but sometimes if you or somebody press a wrong password way too many times, it will lock up the phone for minutes to hours, that could be bad. =(

I use mine also, in an unfortunate case the phone is lost or stolen, it gives me time to could call att and have the phone disabled.

O.K. When I first got mine on iDay, I used the password lock. Then it felt like a nuisance because I had to log my password each time I use it. So I stopped using it since I guard my iPhone like a Doberman. After I read someone's iPhone was stolen in a coffee shop, I started using it again. Your responses are very encouraging!
