Cell Phones Do It All
A phone doesn’t just have to be a phone anymore. These days, the tiny cell phones that have invaded our world are serving as communication devices, cameras, and even scanners for some users.
The cost of these gadgets can vary in price from painful (around $500) to perfect (free – as a contract with a provider). But are they really any good for more that just to call mom to say hello?
Some users have found that using the camera to copy documents and then downloading them with a usb cable allows them to have a make-shift scanner. It is crude, but it can serve the function.
Most every cell phone today comes with a camera function. PC Magazine recently did a report on the quality of the camera functions for casual users. It will never take the quality of pictures that a high-end digital camera will take, but it is great for those unexpected occasions or for normal, family album type photos.
Cell Phones have taken on a new purpose for most people. They serve as a way to communicate through voice, written words, and even visual. A cell phone can be almost anything you want it to be, for the right price.
