Now, let’s talk a bit about technology updates. Well, I got good news for all European mobile users which I also wish will happen here in PH. Below is CNN’s update about Europe getting a universal cell-phone charger.
(CNN) — The frantic hunt for the right cell-phone charger will soon be a thing of the past — in Europe at least — as major manufacturers on Monday agreed to introduce a universal adaptor within six months.
Most cell phones currently rely on different chargers, causing mountains of waste electronic.
Industry leaders, including Apple, Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, have struck a deal with the European Union to introduce the one-size-fits-all charger by January 1, 2010, offering a solution to one of modern life’s chief frustrations.
As the number of cell phones has exploded over the past few years, so have the number of chargers — generating mountains of waste technology as users change or upgrade handsets.
Now the cell phone industry has agreed to standardize its chargers, making all handsets compatible with a micro-USB plug already standard on handsets such BlackBerrys.
So, isn’t it appealing to you guys?
If not, well, it is for me. I can really feel it’s help because I am a Sony Ericsson user and never did my entire life I was able to borrow chargers in cases that I missed it putting inside my bag. Gesssh. To think that in those cases, you desperately need your mobile phone to contact someone.
How I wish, this move in January 2010 will also happen here in PH. As usual, PH is always behind to these new technology updates. But still I hope, we’ll all be facing a new trend for PH. Hoping we can dance the rhythm with them too! *sigh*
