This is always something that people who prefer the landline phone always bang on about all of the time. Has the mobile phone really worked in helping us that much or has it simply turned us into crazy zombie creatures?
Many people are relying on mobiles
People have relied on their mobile phones for a long time ever since the first one was invented. The newer smart phones are slowly taking over the minds of the richer people of the world as you can do everything from blasting off e-mails to checking your bank details and doing your weekly grocery shopping. People do not actually need to leave their houses now that these phones are on the market.
There are several problems with this and the main one seems to be that what happens if the phone goes missing or is stolen? In simple terms, you are well and truly stuffed. There is nothing else for it you will be in deep trouble as more often than not you store a lot of information on these smart phones. This is of course partly why a criminal will always target someone with an iPhone over someone that has a very old looking phone.
Putting a password on your phone doesnt just keep the nosey wife out but will help you in other ways too. It will take you around 2 minutes and could save you thousands of pounds if you have your bank details hidden within the phone. The criminal will take this as they know exactly where to look.
In the second part of this argument I will talk more about the landlines and why using things like 0800 numbers, fax to email and premium rate phone numbers they have revolutionised the way that we do things.
So there you have it.
