Satellites and Smartphones
Broadband – where would we be without it? As a global community, humanity has become so interconnected online that there are now more satellites pointing down at us then there are pointing out to space watching the stars. In fact an article reported by the BBC in January, reveals plans by Canada to shoot another 78 small satellites into orbit to help support the large models in handling all of the internet traffic. We truly live in a digital age.
One of the many reasons for these extra satellites is to enable you to get access to the internet on your mobile overseas. The amount of data use by travellers across the globe has risen exponentially in the past five years and many broadband companies have resorted to restricting the amount of data space people can use. It’s hardly surprising then that more satellites are being planned. However, this does raise an issue that many gadget lovers and consumers may not be to comfortable with.
In order to take advantage of the fastest broadband whilst travelling, you do need to have the best possible phone to handle it. Nine times out of ten this means investing in a smartphone. Love them or loathe them, they have become an essential part of the industry and amongst the very few models who can handle the speeds and data required for the best broadband use. There are many to choose from and whilst this reviewer was sceptical at first, I did eventually invest in an HTC. They are superior to an iPhone as you don’t experience any compatibility issues with software and downloads.
The Digital Future seems to be already here in the present, and like it or not the smartphone era is here.
