Telecommunication has certainly come a long way since the times when you had to wait in line at a phone booth with a pocket full of dimes, and ultimately quarters. These days, it seems as though everyone has their own cell phone that will fit right in the pockets. Plus, they are not just used for making calls anymore. There are scads of things you could do. So here we will look at some of the amazing stuff you can do with your mobile phone.

What you are able to do with your cell is dependent on the type of device that you have. Both smartphones and pocket PC devices offer far greater capability than basic phones. Obviously, because of their added functionality, they require more of an initial investment, and usually cost more to operate on a monthly basis.

One of the most popular applications used today is checking e-mails right from the cell. This is particularly useful if you are traveling or are otherwise away from your desktop or laptop computer. Some simple cells offer this service assuming you are using a popular remote email service.

Text messages are all the rage these days. Tens of millions of them are sent out all across the globe every year. Just about every phone offers this capability, even the very basic ones. But in many cases, there is an extra charge to send and receive messages, sometimes on a per message basis.

GPS is also handy. If you have ever been out of town and needed directions in an unfamiliar city, you know how useful this can be. You no longer need a GPS unit; you can just use your cell.

There are literally thousands of apps available these days. Some have practical uses. Others are simply to have fun. Adults and kids alike find themselves playing games on the mobiles. Sports fans might check score alerts and even watch video clips. And, believe it or not, you still can actually use your mobile phone to talk to somebody.
