We all know that mobile phone, cellphones, hand-phone, whatever we want to call them
(and shouldn‟t we all be calling them the same thing?)
are changing our lives. But it takes a good old fashioned survey to wake us up to the glaring reality they
have changed who we are The mobile phone has in- deed changed the way we behave But perhaps we
don‟t realize how much we have become its slave. Consider
other elements of the
Siemens Mobile Survey With the exception of
Australia, in every country surveyed the majority polled said they would go back for their phone if they left it all
home (In Australia it was a respectable 39%). If you‟ve
endured the traffic in Indonesia the Philippines and
India, you‟ll know what kind of sacrifice some
two-thirds of those surveyed are making I can‟t think of anything I would go back for-except my wallet, maybe, or my clothes
And even if we remember to bring it, we‟re still not happy. Many out us get anxious if it hasn‟t rung or a text
massage hasn‟t appeared for a while being
about an hours). Once again of those surveyed Indonesian (65%) and Filipinos (77%) get paticularry jittery. Australian are more laid back about this (20%) but every other user in Asia seems to be glancing at the phone avery view second. This statistic, I have to say, is highly believable, and the instinct highly annoying
There‟s nothing worse than chatting to some one who
constantly checks his or her handphone
Then there‟s the fact that mobile phones are not only
enslaving the user. they’re trampling the
The bottom line here is that we are more than a little bit out of control. Mobile phones are great but if we allow them to dominate our lives to this extent-interrupting conversations with those around us to take a call,
starring at our phones rather than relating to the world and people around as, sending fifty text massages to
random numbers-then I can only assume that in another 10 years, society as we know it will no longer
exist All we‟ll see is a blur of digital data going out
and having all the fun, socializing, falling in love, and taking skeaky pictures of each others .
