The Future Of Mobile Phones!
Posted in Mobile Devices | 1 Comment »Imagine you’re sitting down in your favorite chair at home, watching the idiot box, and start to feel a little chilly. The blanket’s a good six feet away, and you’re lazy. Luckily, you’re living in the future, so you pull out your mobile phone, adjust your central temperature, dim the lights, and set your security system for armed because you plan on falling asleep where you sit. Your phone wakes you up at 7:00 the next morning, and flips the TV to the news to get you up and moving. As you run around the house, frantically getting ready, televisions in other rooms pick up your phone’s signal, turn on, and change to the same station so you don’t miss a beat.
Pretty cool – I know, but how far in the future is this? The answer is a heck of a lot closer than you probably think. The scenario described above is actually currently achievable through latest touch screen mobile phones, and has been for the past couple years, given you have the right hardware, and phone to coordinate everything. But whether you’re an average Joe or a tech geek, the mainstream solution is right around the corner.
Smart home functionality, of course, isn’t everything that sums up the future of mobile phones. Everything from watching seamless streaming TV from your TV at home at a remote location (yeh…), scheduling flights on the fly (pun), and superior voice recognition. To put it simply, the cell phone of the future is everything that phones are today, but a heck of a lot better. This means larger hard drives for personal entertainment, faster connections, and mobile apps that rival those on our home PCs. The technology is already there, it’s just finding it’s way to the surface.
Mobile phones today are light years away from where they were ten years ago (ok – maybe 10 years away from where they were), but they’re still often times an unstable mess of balances. Either the ‘smart functions’ of the phone work great, but the ‘phone’ part of it doesn’t, or the other way around. I can assure you that the experts are working out the bugs, and a brighter future for for mobility is just a phone call away…while talking and driving at 88 mph.
