to me the most important revolution is still to come.. the low cost cell phones!
for millions of people, in Africa, Asia, the first electronic device they will own is a cell phone, and without needing cable all around these areas, they are going to be connected with the rest of the world very easily… and communication, information is everything to get started

The technology allows for it, but I don't think any phones have been designed with this feature. With a bluetooth range of about 30 feet though, why not try talking loudly instead?

i work for t-mobile in london and i know why the us does not have it. its because they're 3G network is not fast enough to support voice and data at the same time. not even at&t's or verizon's wireless 3G network is fast enough. i have heard that the usa is working hard to get their network up to date. but i heard that by the time they finish its going to be around 2010 when they get 4G. verizon wireless i heard will be offering it when they jump to 4G because i know that there network runs on cdma but when they get LTE long term evolution aka 4G that they're going to be switching to gsm which will provide them with video calling. i don't know anything about at&t. so im guessing u guys are going to have to wait until at least 2010 or unless it happens earlier like in 2009. look at the link i put below for u could see that t-mobile uk has had video calling since 2001

Subject: How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

The reason is mostly the cost. the airline signal has so many restrictions. And if you've flown lately they have been taking many of the phones out. The cost isn't worth it to the airlines. But it would be nice if they did use that type of signal.

the USA is really behind when it comes to cell phones

you think those london phones are awesome, japan has had 3G since around 2000 too but theyre phones get free wireless TV signals, they have camera, mp3, phone, etc, etc, PLUS they have a special reader for barcodes to buy stuff/ get more info on it.

some of them work as a bus pass too

i wish america was more advanced….

BTW, at&t sucks

The fact that our society is over-dependent on tecnology means that in the event of a power outage we wouldn't be able to function.

CDMA is only used in the United States

GSM is used World Wide.

If you dont think you will be traveling in the near future, I recommend Verizon Wireless, they have great reception but a bit pricey same a Sprint.

AT&T has the better connection for the GSM network, thought T-Mobile is cheaper but reception is not found everywhere.

Hope this helps.
