Abstract
About 30 years in the past, numerous items and devices were required for the equivalent functionality to what a smartphone offers today: a telephone, an address book, a map, a photo album, an analog camera, board or card games, a radio, newspapers and journals, a notepad, a calculator, an alarm clock. Today, a single device which can be carried in a pocket offers all this and more.
