I missed it when it was first published on April 3rd, but was pleased to see the excellent Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) documentary on cell phones posted on the web (thanks, Tami). Having lived in Canada for 10 years and seeing the quality of the CBC documentaries, I was excited to see this full documentary. It is nearly 42 minutes, but covers the history, today and tomorrow, mostly life style changes.
At about 27 minutes there is an interesting segment from India were students are learning English on the mobile phone. This in an area where they do not have electricity and very little drinking water.
I loved seeing (around the 21 minute point) the story of Philippe Kahn inventing the camera phone. I had read and heard about it before, but had not seen him talking about it and showing how he did it
In the future section, the coming biometrics capabilities were from Philippe's new company FullPower. See Mobile Devices in Research Lab.
