Looking past the iPhone, is it possible already? AT&T thinks so; they are currently tearing apart the telecommunications industry, beating up everyone on the way. They are able to do so with the help of exclusive rights to the amazing iPhone. Since AT&T is the only telephone company that has the iPhone, their control of the distribution of the phone has given them a complete monopoly over the product. Although, all good things must come to an end, and that means that the exclusive rights only allow for three more years. This is all arranged between AT&T and Apple Inc. After the contract is up then all phone service providers will have the iPhone available with their company. Hence, AT&T is already researching and developing new ways to improve the technology that is on the market so they can stay ahead of the curve.
The scientists and engineers are working on a way to flip videos from your phone right into your flat screen television in your home. The process would work just as if you were flipping through or sliding through pictures on your iPhone. The software is in the works and they are now working on bringing it all together on a much larger scale.
These types of technological gadgets are always exciting and always create a buzz that stretches. I have never been up to date on the current hot items, but it is interesting to watch how far we have come. The intense competition drives companies to try and get ahead of the most recent hot item. Looks like Christmas presents for next year might be from AT&T!
