Your Cell Phone. Your Mobile, Compact, Companion

By Dai1952

There are so many functions incorporated into the modern cell phone that it has become many things to a variety of people but definitely something that you must have. I can see why most parents consider their children must have one but from the child's point of view it is merely a fashion statement.

Unfortunately, although it may be a good idea for youngsters to have them, not one of them would accept a simple basic cell phone that only made calls and sent SMS would they? Although the increase in cell phone popularity may not have been expected to reach such a high level, the manufacturers have improved the cell phone enormously in a very short space of time.

Already the sale and use of landline phones has decreased, despite the global reduction in call costs, as cell phones become ever more useful. There has always been a need to individualize each phone and manufacturers have come up with unique ways to achieve this with an enormous variety of ring tones and screen backgrounds called cellular phone wallpaper.

Now, changing your wallpaper couldn't be easier with web sites set up just for this purpose. Not only can modern phones communicate between each other which makes transferring screen wallpaper a simple process but it can even be created and shared using the cell-phones digital camera. If you prefer you can use an image you have captured previously on your own digital camera but the set up can take a bit more time.

If that is not enough, just to personalize the cellular phone wallpaper a little more, an individual text message can be displayed on the image. Still, even if you have an older cell-phone that does not support all this new technology, it does not mean you cannot enjoy your cell-phone. Still, even if your model cannot accept new screen backgrounds, it may well accept ring tones which will give you that personal touch. The ability to change backgrounds and ring tones is for many just the icing on the cake so as long as it can make calls, that is enough.

You do not need to have special background or ring tones to send a text message do you? Your phone does not need these additional features such as unusual ring tones or fancy cellular phone wallpapers to operate and, if it came to the crunch, what would you prefer; a model that worked when you needed it to or one that just looked attractive?

Try to bear in mind that not everyone is interested in your life and conversations so as a final point try to think of others when you use your phone. Many people will judge you by how you use your cell-phone as it shows what type of person you are.

There are many locations where it is not suitable, or accepted that a cell phone should be used, and you will have more respect from others if you turn it off when you are in this type of situation. Good behavior can be catching and yours may lead others to do the same, be different, do not do what others do just because it is easier. It is a two-way thing, if you exhibit telephone etiquette, the people around you will do the same.
