Mobile Phones – The Alpha Male of Technology
Mobile (cell) phone technology has been accelerating at a rate of knots every since the first one hit the markets.When mobile phones first hit the market they required a trolley to carry around only had buttons 1-9. Nowadays however everything is touch screen and interactive. You can receive email on your phone, take high-resolution pictures and even play online games against someone the other side of the world. However, the mobile phone is set to reach a whole new level of tech domination soon, and experts are predicting that it will be the only gadget we need to carry around with us.
John Moore, head of Advanced Technology at Cambridge University had outlined his vision for the future. I predict that very soon all the requirements of the modern way of life will be served by phones¦technology is getting smaller thanks to things like mini electrical components and people are becoming ever more mobile, so it make sense that people want to carry their life in their pocket.
MP3 players used to be things you had in addition to your phone, but as there is plenty of storage room in your cell these days, more and more people are using them for their music devices. Camera technology in phones is advancing at an alarming rate also, with some of the best phones offering up to 10 mega pixels and some even now provide optical zoom. You can even browse the internet as easily as you would do on our home computer, and in fact the number of people using their phones to surf is increasing by around 100% each year.
Some critics have suggested that people will not want to give up the luxury of having large viewing screens like they do on their PCs, or TVs. Nokia have silenced these critics to some extent recently when they bought out a phone that could project a screen size of up to 45 inches onto the nearest wall. It seems like its out with home entertainment units and cable ties, and in with nana processers and micro circuit breakers, powering some of the most power bits of kit the world has ever seen.
