I love the fact that he's the President, but he may not be "allowed" to use email.
The biggest loss may be one they briefly cite: Getting a view from outside his bubble. Cutting a president off from his personal contacts, the ones best positioned to give unvarnished advice, seems like exactly what happens as a president becomes increasingly isolated from the "real" world.
Point taken, but if I was the President and people would stop mid-sex to take my calls and I had a staff to screen incoming calls, I'd probably warm up to the phone.
The law's a bit unfair that all email is public record but no phone calls are, until that changes I don't expect a President to be a big emailer.

He still has a phone.
Which do you use more and find more convenient, a phone or the internet?

I wonder where text messages fall, public record?
