Sony Ericsson P900: Smartphone Extraordinaire!
(Page 1 of 7 )
These days, when many people leave their homes they take with them a cell phone, an MP3 player, a PDA, and sometimes other devices. Wouldn't it be nice to carry just one device that does it all? The Sony Ericsson P900 smartphone aspires to achieve this ambitious goal, and sets quite a standard for others to follow.
Since the beginning of the telecommunications explosion into mainstream culture sometime in the early 1990s, the number of mobile phone owners has grown exponentially, and so has the number of available phones. There are now more than 1 billion mobile phones in circulation -- that's almost one sixth of the entire population of Earth! PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) have also grown in everything from availability to popularity; everything in fact, except size. The smartphone, which first came onto the scene around 1996, is an attempt to blend these two products together.
The Sony-Ericsson P900 is an attempt to blend far more than just a PDA and a mobile phone. Picture this: with the amount and size of available gadgetry on the market these days, you could be leaving your house with your mobile phone, your MP3 player, digital camera, PDA, portable DVD player and handheld games console just to get through a normal day. With the P900, you can simply take that and leave the rest at home. But can the phone really replace all these devices?
