IPhones

IPhones have been a big selling item for about the last three years. Almost every college student seems to have one now. It actually seems odd when a student doesn't have one. I do have one and I do believe that it is the best phone I have ever had. At the same time, I am sure that there are other good phones available. There seems to be a new IPhone out every few months. The new model of the phone always promises to do something completely amazing. They keep making the phones because people keep buying them. Do you find yourself always wanting the newest high tech item? Even if you current one works fine?

    The electronic industry is all about Planned Obsolescence. The main goal of this type of production is to ensure that consumers will have to buy the product multiple times, rather than only once. How many iPhone models are there now? Apple has been plagued with accusations and investigations about its business practices. Its shareholders are upset because Apple has billions in cash and has paid little in dividends. If I upgrade to a smart phone, it will not be an Apple product. My taste toward tech is price rather than the newest product.
