The term smart phone is described as basically a phone with more capabilities then an older phone from say the 1980s. I own an iPhone, and quite frankly I'd have to say its the greatest thing to effect society (and yes I think its better then sliced bread). But I say this for the unusual reasons that people don't normally think of. What I mean to say is yes it plays music and yes you can go on Facebook, but it does so much more. Everyday my phone wakes me up, tells me the temperature, tells me when and where my classes are, directs me, tells me where the bus is, whats for dinner, and most importantly; keeps me in the loop. I realize how attached I am with my iPhone, and in all honesty I would legitimately consider giving up one of my fingers before I would give up this phone. The sad part about this is that I guarantee that a large majority of people would do the same. Is this not pathetic? Phones are supposed to give us freedom to live our lives, and instead we are constantly checking for anything new or exciting. One day actually my roommate proposed an idea to me, one that I felt was pointless at the time. He told me to leave my phone in the room for an hour and just forget it even existed. That was true freedom. Not worrying about that new email or text message, but instead worrying about life. That's what I want back, my freedom, and I don't care if I have to do it one baby step at a time, call me a Freedom Fighter because I will not stop until my iPhone goes from a "must have" to a "boredom toy".
