ANDROID STILL THE FAVORITE OS.

I told you in previous blogs of my experience with other OS, but what captures my fascination is how much we can do with an smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S4 in my case.
I know the reach of iPhone I don't deny it. You can control almost everything, for example your house alarm and surveillance systems, thing you never imagine. Android gives us what IOS does and much more because it's so easy to be customized. I mean the user can control the software and it's applications. I can have tethering for free, I can change the look to whatever I like and push the performance of the phone and all related to it to the best.
At the moment I have an AT&T phone using with cricket which is owned by the giant company. I have a custom rom called Deadly Venom which is very nice fast and good on battery. My only frustration is that the biggest companies AT&T and Verizon have locked the boot loader on this phones keeping us from taking advantage of AOSP roms which are more customIzed than Touchwiz.
Any I am still happy with my phone, I can use it as music player, GPS, Internet browser, remote control for my TV's, I can watch TV remotely away from my house, I can take pictures, videos, store them in the cloud, print from the phone or memory card, I have a flash light. Also it's a planner, organizer, wakeup alarm, stopwatch which in the past we had a device for each of this functions. Now it's taking the place of the typewriter and computer since I am typing on the blog.
What else can we expect to get from this devices? I just love them but technology it's like that. In a decade o so we may see new gadgets and smartphones will be history. 

GADGETS THAT MARK THE FUTURE

All of us that have live through the evolution of the digital ERA can stop realizing how much the technology has advanced. Starting from the time of main frame computers those big rooms with huge hardware. We never imagine how far technology could have gone. IBM and Apple developed the personal computers in the 70's. By 1985 I saw the first one that a relative purchased, I was a teenager hungry to learn, started as a game trying to figure out what that machine could do. I remember it was a clone of some unknown brand. You can only do word and spreadsheets, as I play with the machine a few times I though I broke, to my luck only restart would come back to normal. Since then it became my pasión.
When, I went to College in my surprisingly computers were still run on main frame. For some reason colleges and universities are one step behind technology. I heard of the new apple computers that revolutionized the market, but it wasn't until the 90's that I saw my first Macintosh machine on my first office job. I did not get a chance to use one until a few years later.
In 1998 I got my second office job using the latest Blue iMac and from time to time I use the best in the market since that was used in the graphic design. By year 2000 I got my first PC for obvious reasons, because it was cheaper.
Few years later with the crisis in the country, it hit home been force to survive anyhow. I started my own business without much experience but went ahead. In that period of time I acquire a few more Desktops as they were getting old. Then I started to enter a new era using the notebook computers.
With all this personal history I am also showing that we went from huge Computer to Notebooks. Did we though we could go any further, we only dream watching Star Wars, The Jetsons and all this futuristics shows of the day.
Going back a bit in 1995 I bought my first personal cellphone a Nokia latest in technology at the time. Nobody imagine that this miniture devices could the place of one of those main frame computers or the more advanced Macintosh, iMac or Windows base computers.
By the year 2003 I got my first windows phone, then few years later I enter into the Blackberry family, I mean I got one of them, which for some time had been popular in the business world.
Android phones came to the scene as well as the iPods, iPhones, so by 2012 I got my first Android Phone and to my luck the very popular Samsung S2. In this period I had the privilege of teach my most favorite subject computers, I was able to point out to my student what I had in my hand a Computer capable to do so much, transfer files wireless, printing, take pictures , take videos, record conversations, use as remote control. Taking the place of mulltiple devices that in the past use to do this jobs.
Today I got an Android Samsung Galaxy S3, my wife and daughter have iPhones and iPad each. So I have use also the Apple gadgets.
Now We hear of hundreds of more gadgets Galaxy S5, iPhone 5s, iPad Air, HTC One M8, Samsung Smart Watch. Also, Google Glass that will be on the market soon at a very high price like most new gadgets are, with this last one we can see how far technology has take us, as to have a computer on the corner of our eye.
The next step is already happening have computer incorporated to our bodies as we saw in the Six Millon Dollar man, any body remember that.
What else can we expect from technology?
