Yet Another Big Deal.
It never fails! It never fails, yet again, another big deal! Publisher's are making a huge deal about the new iphone being used in schools. If it is a good idea, to be using the iphone in class. That really goes hand in hand. It depends on the person who owns the iphone. They can be using the phone for a million things now. Technology has evolved in alot of ways, and in the cell phone is one of them. I personally do not own a iphone, but i know they are capable of a ton of things. I know it has a dictionary applitcation, spell check, gps, it has access to wireless internet, also has 3-g network. Which allows the iphone to use the internet where it isn't wireless. So if the student wants to check his email, or look up some information for a report, he doesn't need to get on the computer. Now that seems to be the problem with alot of publisher's. They think it affects them, that other people are not paying attention in their class, because of their phones. I don't see in anyway shape or form, how it affects them. If they are using their phone to help them with school work, or anything related in that subject, then it is definately benefiting them. If they are just on myspace or texting their friend's, thats their fault. The only person they are hurting, is themselves. They are going to miss out on a valuable lesson, and probably misunderstand the given assignment. But I still don't see how this is affecting the people writing articles about the iphone. They probably just want to get some good reviews, and want some fast cash. So they go on in other people's business. Which is just a big waste of their time.
