Already, many do not leave their cell phones. NEC specialists suggest that in the next few years mobile technology will be even more closely intertwined in our lives. First of all we are talking about the fact that consumers perceive the flow of information and communication as a new form of entertainment and recreation. The same applies to all new-fangled mobile devices, frequently performed in the form of accessories. In some way the possession and use of mobile "souvenirs" - this is another form of self-actualization and attitudes.

FLIPPER - the browser in your pocket
But on such a device, considering many. Positioning several narrowish, but we know that such a device can be applied in numerous areas, would be soft, but a little more time.
So, what's the "scientific innovation? Firstly, it seems that the whole concept consists of a single screen, and that's fine. Secondly, the developers assure that the device is completely controlled by one hand. Thirdly, Jog-dial synchronized with a menu that goes in a circle on the screen beside him.Again, the allegations with the NEC device is convenient to work and right and left hand, as well as vertically.
