FUTURE CELL PHONE TECHNOLOGY

CELL PHONES - SOME CONSIDERATIONS OF THE FUTURE CELL PHONE TECHNOLOGY

You see, at that time not very many people had the cell phones and they were very expensive. Another one of my first phones was an Audiovox 1000 model, which was quite big and it was mounted in my car, a car phone - cell phone. The headset had a cord on it just like a phone at home, before the cordless phones that is. This Cell Phone or car cell phone was wired directly to the battery with a couple fuses. When I turned on  the vehicle, the Cell Phone would automatically turn on. Folks today take all this for granted, as they do not realize how cumbersome the original cell phones, or how stupid they were compared to modern day smart cell phones. Often people today do not realize what it was like before mobile cell phones. Today, the cell phones are less wattage than they were back then, so the average cell tower was 6 miles or less apart. Two-way text messaging via cell phones is merely a re-introduction of that similar technology. I can tell you this - my first cell phones were much more powerful and worked much better than the cell phones of today.

Fast forward to today and now no one goes anywhere without a cell phone. Today, our cell phones have changed the entire dynamics of our society. There are unspoken of cell etiquette issues phone use in public. There are rules when we can use our cell phones and when we can  not. Issues such as driving with a cell phone and the number of auto deaths which occur while people are driving and talking on the phone at the same time. One recent study in the cell phone industry noted that 90% of the people who own cell phones have never used all the features, and doesn’t know how to program them, or even they exist on their cell phone. Some allow you to use your cell phone to do remote programming too.

Cell phones and our current smart phones are no exception. It is hard to say the future what types of new features in our cell phones will have. The early adopters of such cell phone and smart phone technologies are willing to spend big bucks to have all-in-one devices. Google Phone and social networking connections appear to be on the horizon. Consider if you will the use of technology in Tiananmen Square - should governments be worried about your cell phone technology, or the future of 4G wireless cell phones? There are many cell phones that allow you to use speech recognition to dial cell phone numbers, searching your databases, or navigating the screens on your cell phone. Your cell phone will even become a payment device, be hooked to your credit card information.

Most people do not realize how fast future cell phone technology  moves  today, it seems to be exponentially increasing. In the article the writer states: Of course, if cell phone banking bothers you, perhaps we could suggest window shopping in real time via your cell phone? Online shopping while window shopping. Wow, what a concept, all this via your smart phone technology. And this is something that will definitely be a hit with shoppers and cell phone users. Okay, so what about Skype smart phone calls? The article researched the impressive growth of Skype usage features in various smart phone devices, as if it could become the international standard for all cell phones in the future. Sure the technologies or applications might work slightly differently due to patent software and device hardware, but essentially all companies will offer all applications eventually.

Cell phone technology has certainly come a long way since the days when you needed an extra brief case to carry one around with you. Technology is advancing at such a furious pace, that it seems you no sooner walk through the door with your purchase of the latest cell phone, computer or other technological advancement than it is either outdated, obsolete or just plain old extinct! So, does that mean that the video phone in its current form is about to replace our trusty old cell phones? For one thing, the videophone, although very portable must be connected to broadband and an electrical outlet. Sound familiar to the original cell phone? The cell phone, however was designed for remote portable communication. I do believe though that as time progresses, we will undoubtedly see the merging of these two technologies in the form of video cell phones. Yes video is available on some cell phones right now, when the phone network can handle the upload speed.

Here are some predictions of what future cell phone technology will do:

Watching TV or movies - Expect mobiles showing video clips soon. Quality of the video will also be fine. So live sports events, news, movies everything at your finger tips. Fuel Cell - Battery life often holds tech products back, and fuel cells could provide a boost. Fuel cells are like tiny engines that generate power through chemical reactions. High Speed Data Access - Imagine your Cell phone browsing the internet at DSL speed. Browsing the internet on your cell phone is nothing new, but DSL speed would be.

Video Cameras - This technology is actually already here. While currently a cell phone camera may have limited capabilities, it's only a matter of time for it to exceed and surpass the performance of a stand alone video camera, although there is some concern over somebody being video taped without their consent.

Cell phone carriers have truly embraced the multimedia revolution and decided to make our life cell phone centric. With technology like MP3, Video streaming and photography consolidated into these small devices, you can expect cell phones to become the only piece of electronic on us at all times.

An Australian firm, aiming to cut down credit card fraud, has been reviewing cell phones that would provide the name of the location where the credit card has been used. Morphing - The future looks bright for those with unsteady fingers, given the anticipated launch of NEC tag phones. Nokia is working upon nanotechnology products to build a Morph phone that can be bent or twisted into different shapes and use the nearly invisible technology so that the user can literally see through the phones.

The idea is to use cell phones as a quick pass credit card that would require swiping.
