New types of cell phones such as the voyager, the razor, the sidekick and the blackberry, along with many others, come about with touch scream, e-mail, music, picture sending, internet access, instant messeging, and built in palm pilot. Imagine what would happen in 10 years from now. What more could possibly added to this device??
