Small Wonders..

Imagine the world of tomorrow (sooner than the typical authorial tomorrow)..
It's Monday morning. You have an alarm set on your cellphone for 6am. The clock strikes six but the phone doesn't beep. Instead, it sends a message to your nervous system that then signals your mind that it's time to wake up. Your brain processes the signal and sends an instruction to your eyes to unshut immediately.
Good Morning, and welcome to the world of mobile technology. In the past 20 years the mobile technology has come a long way. The oldest cellphone owners were only the people who believed in God. To be able to make a call from those handsets one needed 1) faith and 2) big hands. The phones today are a lot slicker, so tiny that their primary selling point, much to dismay of mankind, is almost always their small size.

The recent trend in the models of handsets that are being manufactured and sold is a clear indication of consumer's ulterior need to use the [mobile] technology beyond the simple objective of making a call. With the arrival of 3G options like Bluetooth, Multimedia exchange and GPRS, cellphones are fast becoming the drivers of modern communication where, voice [communication] has taken a back seat to let information travel through other means.

Moreover, the idea of a cellphone as a tool that has it all is already very popular. The most recent handsets are loaded with features that are capable of running and sharing MS applications, PDF documents, music files and much more. The underlying technology, as smart as it can get, can transcode the data that is being shared to suit all devices.

There is [probably] a lot more going on in the labs of mobile technology. The ever evolving cellphone devices are adapting to the change in technology faster than we can imagine. The little devices in our pockets that come across as phones [that listen and allow one to talk] are, much in contrast to their appearances, huge in ideas and their implementation.
