Sometimes a gadget changes our lifes. Depending on your age, it could have been a transistor radio, later the Walkman, then the cell phone. Now the tool that will change the way we think, work and play is the Iphone.
When I was about 7, I was able to scrape enought money together to buy a cheap red transitor radio from Thirfy Drug. Before it all music was tied to a cord. In the house, or in the car. So grown ups decided what to lisiten to. With my own radio I could listen to "my" music. KXFD, or a ball game. It was empowering for a little kid. Much later the phone became portable and you could get a call anywhere. Soon after the MP3 player gave us a whole wall of music in a postage stamp.
Untill now the interent was tied up. At the office, or home it took big computer and phone or cable line to use.
With the Iphone and the smart phones that will follow it is like that old transistor radio agian. You can take your "internet" with you everywhere. Check mail, or the BSU score. Google the salesman that is trying so hard to sell you a timeshare. Full access to my www.AmericanPhotoSource.com site. Plus all the blues a guy could ever want. Almost as cool as my little red am radio!
