Is it possible the phone is taking over?

A recent poll has shown that British people are very highly addicted to thier mobile phones. Research has shown that 88% of people do not leave their homes without their mobile phone. All this is proving is that without technology the country would be nothing. This also means that 53,658,000 phones are carried around in bags and pockets in the streets of the UK every single day.In truth Britain sends over 1 Billion texts a week putting us into the top 6 for texting in the world which is ridiculous considering Britain is such a tiny area of the world.

The poll went on to say that over anything else a mobile is the one thing we will always take with us even over a wallet or purse. Funnily enough the midlands saw the best/worst result depending on how you look at things with a massive 98% of people saying they had it on thier persons all the time.
The real question to ask is why? It is quite simple really. The amount of things a mobile phone can now do is astronomical ranging from a simple text or call to checking the bank details online or even getting insurance quotes. The mobile phone is one of those technlogy’s that seems to be advancing more and more not every year but every few months with some phones even now containing voice recognition! As well as this you can now watch television as well as your favourite film all from the touch of a button on the phone as well as look at quotes from different car insurance firms!

Of course it does mean that muggings have risen simply because there are more phones out there to take as well as the question are we becoming too dependent on technology? It seems as the generations go on and on we are becoming more and more lazier as this was certainly not like this thirty years ago.

If technology is your thing then why not look for gadget insurance to make sure your favourite new gadget is protected against anything and everything!
