Week 5 - 21st Century Technology

The Apple iPhone has combined previous technologies into one device. Before, consumers had a cell phone, radio, musical player (CD player or walkman), camera, camcorder and a personal computer. With the iPhone all of those separate electronics are not necessary. What makes smartphones, such as the iPhone so great is that all the separate electronics that consumers once used are now in one small portable device. When you compare the first one that was released in 2007 to the current one the difference in what the consumer is able to do is incredible. The first iPhone didn’t have a GPS or a camera in the front screen, but the newest phones have these features. I predict that electronics such as a camera and a personal computer will become obsolete one day as a result of the all the electronic technologies that are included in a smart phone.
