    While you should be working/studying? Do you waste company time? Do you play games while in the classroom? Have you ever got in trouble for playing with your iPhone?
    Me, not so much since I don't work by the hours but I do like a game of Doodle Jump after I eat my lunch:)

    Not as frequently as I'd like to, but when there's a sub or we're just done with our work and I sit in the back and the teacher is pretty laid back, I use my iPod for gaming. I also got busted last year a couple of times for using Cydia in English class when I finished my work. It was going great since my teacher was using the laptop to adjust grades and no one cared, but then the idiot administrator lady (who I don't like anyway) walked by the room, saw it under my desk through the door window, and busted into the class just to annouce that I was using my iPod. I still don't like her. Otherwise, I use some sound effect apps in class for humor. One person in class got the answer wrong so I played the buzzer. Stuff like that.

    So the answer to your question would be yes.

    Pretty much what somerandomdude said. If I have freetime and the teacher doesn't mind.

    I try to every now and then, but my class is pretty small. It's too easy to get caught. :p

    I do when I'm done with my work and during lunch. I've gotten it taken away before school even started for checking my email.

    In my last year of school, I had my iPhone confiscated during a lesson. We had a cover teacher and the bitch wouldn't give it back at the end of the lesson. I had to wait a whole 6 hours before getting it back :(

    Man I hate those people. I was cool with my English teacher taking it because she said she'd give it back at the end of the period, which she did. I think she took it because the administrator woman was there, otherwise she would have probably just told me to put it away.

    I used to, but my school adopted a nazi policy against electronics. I did get my phone confiscated once for playing in class :p

    I got a funny story. in school, I was showing my friend my games on my iPod touch, I let him play Resident Evil 4 while we're in class, and we sit right in front of our teacher! So he's RES4 and he's shooting zombies and he keeps saying: "boom headshot"! And my teacher just looks at him funny and she's says to him "what are you doing?". He's thinking OH SH!T and he says "Uh... I'm playing with my pencil"

    One day in physics class we were doing a lab and I decided to whip out my iPOD TOUCH to measure the angle of an inclined plane with those iHandy level apps things.
    Physics teacher walks by
    "what is that"
    and he play around tilting it and amazed that it had accelerometer
    Next day he comes in with his own new iPod that he bought after just seeing mine and starts talking to our class about the App store and how there are GRAPHING CALCULATOR and PERIODIC TABLE apps and said he would talk to our principal about letting these be used in class.
    everyone was looking at me
