In the most recent Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Capt. Jack Sparrow has the line: "The world hasn't gotten smaller, there's just less in it." Wrong! There's a lot more in it now than ever before. And with this tool, whatever that is that's in it, you can take a photo of it and call someone up to discuss it all in one swell foop. Fascinating!

For a long time, we had combinations of PDS and Phones. Some were phones with a PDA attached, some were PDAs with a phone attached. It just depended on the manufacturer and where they started.

Then everyone added a camera to their device.

Now we are seeing cameras with phones added instead of phones with cameras added!

I'd heard about these things.

Now we really have to be careful, or a whole new lot of pictures of us, will end up on a webpage somewhere we least expect.

Kind Regards....
