Craze of cell phones!!!

21st century is an era of breathtaking inventions, heart tromping innovation and life changing break-through.
One of them that has affected every readers life is “CELL PHONES”

It is one of the most captivating inventions, which connects people around the globe; every pulse of their life. From teenagers to baby boomers everyone has this "little baby" for chatting, messaging and style.

I personally feel cell-phones was a great invention, its sole purpose was to keep people connected anywhere and everywhere they were. In recent years it has become more of a fashion statement and a gadget that has more applications than tulips in Holland festival. Today the phone one carries ensemble status and defines style statement.

Developing countries have become a huge market share for cell phone investors. Everyday at-least 20,000 people get a new cell phone in India alone. On the flip side market share in the developed countries has more or less become stable and stagnant for cell phone companies.

So to lure these customers companies have started creating multi-purpose phones and sole contract service rights. Companies are creating “Phone that can have the world at your finger tips.” Stylish phones in addition to great looks have FM, Bluetooth, messenger, Video streaming capability, and many more applications.

Latest to join the streak is Apples most awaited "I-Phone." This has created quiet a buzz in the technology world. It’s biggest plus is everything is control by a touch interface, has handset's accelerometer, and proximity sensor. I-Phone looks promising to critics but will be selling for ~$499 or $599. That's a big ouch, particularly at that sky-high price .

If this streak continues phones for next generation will have applications to unlock ones car/house/office, banking, scanning, etc.

Do you think this craziness is worth the prices?
