Cellphones today - You wish you were in the Matrix

Everybody today is looking for the coolest cellphone on the market. You get the one that does everything except cook for you, only to find out that the next day another one came out that can bake pancakes for breakfast, and cellphones just keep evolving and integrating more of the technology into a single device. Remember the movie the Matrix? You threw your cellphone out the building, into the trash, you would even beat a couple of agents with it, and the next day you already had a cooler one in you hands. We all wish it was this simple, but with the trends moving faster than ever before, cellphones are evolving rapidly today. The great thing about this is that you get a cool cellphone today, and in six months you can get another one with twice as much functions in it for the same price. Or if you're looking for comodity, than you can wait a couple of months and you can get the coolest cellphone that came out two months ago for a very good price. There really is no stop in technology. Today you can use your cellphone as an Mp3 player, a radio, your personal agenda, voice recorder and digital camera. The future seems good as the standard cellphones are now coming out with more and more of these functions. When you are looking to buy a new cellphone there are a few things you want to consider. Your choice of phone almost always depends on your choice of wireless service provider. In most cases you first need to figure out which carrier offers the best coverage and the best monthly service plan in your area. You can choose between flip-open, clamshell-style phones and standard non-flip phones. Flip phones can be more difficult to use with one hand because the cover may be heavier than the base, and some lack a separate caller ID screen on the cover that's visible without opening the phone. Part of what makes a phone easy to use is its portability. A typical non-flip phone weighs about 4 ounces and is about the size of an energy bar--5 inches long, 2 inches wide, and an inch thick. Anything above that is considered large. Most new phones allow at least three hours of talk time and two to six days on standby. Some phones, including Nokia's, can last up to 14 days on standby. Keep in mind that usage affects battery life, as well as the signal strength of your cellular service--a phone that constantly searches for signals will run itself down quickly. These are a few things you will want to consider before you decide for your cellphone. In summary what you want is a design that fits your personal style, a plan that fits your budget, and the accesories that match up with your everyday needs. Once you have that, you have a perfect matching cellphone for you.
