Competition for the Iphone...
Samsung has developed a phone to directly compete with the Apple's Iphone. The Samsung Instinct looks very similar as they both rely heavily on the touch screen. The Instinct costs only 129$ after mail in rebate, which is much cheaper than the Iphone. Critics say the best features are the messaging and GPS systems. But it lacks Wi-Fi features, the calls are some what erratic and there is no editing feature for the video camera. This development of these types of phones is showing us how we, as American's are becoming very dependent on mobility as we look for ways to email and do business things on the go and away from the office. With gas prices on the rise, with no end in sight, businesses are looking for ways to cut costs, these types of new technology are allowing for more people to work from home and on the go.
