Will smartphones be the new PC Xmas gifts?

The moment I saw Mr Spock on Star Trek using a device to communicate with the Enterprise... I knew that one day people would have little hand held devices to communicate, evaluate the environment and to entertain themselves with.

I saw my first iPhone this week... (I've been avoiding technology in recent months) and I was blown away by it. But it's not on my Christmas list.

I went into a shop this week and saw a Sony electronic book, that flicks the pages when you press a button. But that's not on my Christmas list either.

I've decided that reality is not worth bothering with.... so this Christmas I'm getting a few classic paperback novels, and I'm gonna sit by the fire and read them all.

The 21st Century sucks, and since I can't go back to the 20th Century.......... wait... is there such a thing as a Time Travelling App?
