Does anyone actually use an E6B anymore? If so, what for?

I use it all the time for flight planning, just like I always did.
The analog face is much easier to use than digital, and once set, I
can read off many answers with no further input. It doesn't need
batteries, it won't break if I drop it, and I have more of a sense
that it is me that is doing the planning, and not some computer.

What part of the flight planning do you use it for? Are you in
training or have you already gotten your PPL?
