Are you using all your functions?

Annotation of images seems to be rarely used

As increasing numbers of practitioners use imaging systems in their practice, it would appear that for the vast majority the use is confined to image capture and storage. The fact that most of the imaging software systems allow a wide range of other functions does not seem to be permeating into everyday use.

This is similar in many ways to the findings of recent consumer surveys looking at the ways people use their mobile phones. As the handsets become more and more advanced and offer services from recording, memo, alarms, call transfer, and so on, the majority of users still primarily wish to use their phone to phone with. So, is the extra functionality merely a sales gimmick of benefit to a few of the more 'techie' users?
