With a global coverage vision the 'Satellite communication technology', much advanced & quicker than the terrestrial radio system, is the
most phenomenal feature of Information Revolution and the wonderful gizmo called 'mobile phone' is perhaps the best buddy of modern man. A mobile phone, if we consider in literal sense is 'a communication device which is handy enough to be carried to any place you might go' but it is much more than that today. It is your own personal GPS, music player, camera, recorder, planner, calculator, alarm clock & is laced with internet facilities as well if it is a smart phone or i-Phone. The 'mobile-mania' is
growing day by day worldwide, as a study says approximately 91% people between age group of 15-34 are addicted to their cell phones. Even
in a developing country like India the total number of mobiles has far outstripped the total number of landline connections as every
second person, be it rural or urban, educated or uneducated, male or female is carrying a mobile phone in their hands. It has become a necessity rather than a luxury& is a status symbol with facilities of radio, MP3, MP4, video & mobile television backed by 3G & 4G technology,
internet and GPRS.
