3G phones

The new iphone at less than two hundred dollars ($199 to be exact) has 3G. And thats a whole new world for cell phone junkies. You can now video conference with the person you are talking to and see if they are in their pyjamas and curlers or presentable. You can watch live TV on your phone. With broad band you will only wait seconds to read your email. Plus all the wonderful things that the iphone already had. Launch date is July 11 worldwide. However, if you are like me who use a cell phone to call from here to there and that too only when necessary, then all these lovely features are just to look at and marvel over but not necessarily to buy. As my Dad used to say - you can appreciate something but you dont necessarily have to own it. And with these words of wisdom I leave you for the present.
