New iPhone snapped up
by Radka Konkolova

I think the most of people love all kind of technical news. These can help them make their lives easier and funnier, offer them comfort and have many functions, so you need just one gadget for calling, sending messages, listeting to music, video watching and recording and even browsing web on the go. Technique and technologies get better in this direction every day. Few years or decades ago you needed much more bigger devices and much more of them than now. Really, try to think about this. But people then weren’t as depend on these „toys“ than we are.

In 90s cell phones weren’t so spreaded among the people and they were very expensive and looked like a mobile call-box, too. No, I am overdoing a bit now. But the true is they used to be very big, heavy and battery had to be charged very often. Neither computers and Internet weren’t so accessable nor used as often. They weren’t as needed and also were larger than they are today. People working with and developing these technologies have been trying to make these products more attractive and mainly useful for companies, offices and for ordinary people. So there were created many games and programmes which should persuade people to purchase this convenience.

Other very important thing in developing technologies is besides their efficience also their size and price. Thanks to nanotechnologies everything is multiply smaller and you can bring it with you where you want. Also the price is more acceptable, because almost everyone can afford buying the cell phone, computer with Internet or both.

So producers, especially those who produce cell phones, want to make people’s lives easier and of course they want to earn bigger profit, so they started making multifunctional devices, which achieve more and better functions every year. So the consequence is that nowadays people can’t imagine their phones without camera, music player or Internet. All of these things are important for most of people when choosing cell phone, so producers are still constraint to introduce some news on the market. So Apple have done.

Last Friday, Apple, Inc., the producer of iPod, iMac, iPhone, etc., announced its hottest and long-awaited news to the market. It has been the newest 3G iPhone with many useful functions and beautiful design. This means many people, especially overseas, wanted to be the first owner of this miracle. Some of them were willing to spend for around 60 hours even in freezing temperatures (Australia) in front of the stores. This phone is really top one, but certainly I wouldn’t be willing to spend such time in front of a store only because of the phone and in order to have it among the first people. But man who did this, is the first man in the world owning this gismo. This gadget is at first phone, than iPod and Internet. You are allow to call, send and receive SMS, MMS and emails, take and afterwards watch photos and videos, next you can receive news, weather, stock and other information, you can join in Apple Store, watch videoclips on youtube... In menu you can find even GPS navigator with detailed map. Of course you can use the calendar, notes and multifunctional scietific calculator and others because iphone has got many new and useful features. Besides 3G which can make you calling fun and more interactive, it includes also Wi-Fi, so it is no problem to join in Wi-Fi almost everywhere. The big advantage is instinctive and simplified control because this phone is touch-screen, which is becoming very fashionable this time. This piece even cooperates with Microsoft, what is really good because in the past there could be some problems with compability. In addition, this iPhone offers multilingual menu which includes more languages than ever.

But no matter the size or stability of the company. Nevertheless, the problem may occur. So in this case. There were some problems with activating the phone a few hours after sales began in New York. But it was maybe because of network overcharge, but I think everything is okay now.

It is predicted that worldwide there will be sold more than 4 millions of these phones till December 2008. The supply of this product is expanding to the every part of the world, even to the East Asia, so also Asians can buy and try this amazing thing. But on the other hand, analysts claim, this „miracle“ won’t be used and popular by mainstream customers in Japan and China, while it doesn’t support television services or electronic payment features which are the most used and needed in the whole country.

But generally, many people want to possess such a beautiful and intelligent mobile phone, because of its features and maybe also because they want to show it to their relatives, friends and be a star.
