Maybe it's just me, but Cell Phones keep getting dumber. I remember the 80s when you had answering machines and if people wanted to talk to you. Then thye came up with cell phones so people could talk o you anywhere... okay.
I guess it wasn't too bad with how many car crashes that caused.
Then they gave people texting. Somehow that seemed like a good idea. I get sending one little message when the other person isn't picking up, but somehow it ended up being how people communicated. And died in car crashes.
So they fixed that by making the text hear and sort of understand what you say and text for you. Ah, but obviously (and I mean obviously) you can't read and drive, so it also reads what they text out loud.
So I'm assuming the next application would involve some sort of ingenious device that let's you speak in your own voice and hear the other person. You could even put them in booths on street corners so you wouldn't actually have to carry your cellphone with you everywhere. Just attach them with some sort of cord so people don't steal them.
I also recently heard that the new cellphones are being made out of glass. Supposedly to help them recharge better, but come on, people not only carry these in their pockets (ouchies if you trip), they drop them. And the people coming out with them sell phones.
Seriously?
