"Sprint...For The Nearest Verizon Wireless Office!" (Cellphones)

"Romeo, where art thou?"

Today we're observing cellphones in general. Not the iPhone, just the plain Jane cellphone for right now. We'll leave the companies alone until another month. But it's no lie that the main purpose for cellphones has been distorted beyond all conceivable recognition. (Again, the iPhone.) In fact, we sometimes forget that cellphones used to look like this. It's funny how time can out-do itself. Ultimately, there is nothing wrong with the cellphone of yesterday. And by yesterday, I mean 2006 or something. It's when everything gets so crazy and overly "modern," that it can't even make phone calls anymore. The makers of the iPhone, (Next post) probably are aware of the lack of need for a call-making service. I'm sure they'll be on it soon enough. Because, today's teen would rather use their phone to play and assort the latest clubz songz, than call their parents to say,
"I'm gonna be 6 hours late coming home from school, don't wait up!" The first and foremost priority of a modern cellphone is apparently to distract and waste the time of anyone who uses it. I totally agree things would suck if we could only make calls on a hooked to the house, wired, and tan colored phone. But we've gone too far, too soon. You agree? ;)

Next and final post for this season of technology will be the iPhone. Stay tuned, and subscribe. ;)
