Newer PDAs, like the Apple iPhone and iPod touch include new user interfaces using other means of input. The iPhone and iPod touch uses Multi-touch technology.

Wireless Connectivity
Many PDAs consume Touch Screen Technology and also Wireless Wide-Area Networks. Most modern PDAs have Bluetooth wireless connectivity. It can be used to connect keyboards, headsets, GPS and many other accessories. Superior PDAs have Wi-Fi/ WLAN - connectivity, It is used to connecting to Wi-Fi hotspots or wireless networks

Synchronization Facility:
An important function of PDAs is synchronizing data with a PC.
This feature allows keeping up-to-date contact information stored on software like Microsoft Outlook or ACT! To update the database on the PDA. Most PDAs come with the facility to synchronize to a PC. With many PDAs, Third-party synchronization software is also available.

1. The Main Protocols used by Mobile Phones (SMS EMS MMS WAP)
Short Message Service (SMS) Short Message Service (SMS) is a text message service that enables the transmission of short messages between a cell phone, PDA, PC, or any device with an Internet protocol (IP) address. Since this service was standardized in the mid 1990s, it has recorded tens of billions of messages and is being used worldwide. SMS was introduced in the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and later adopted by other mobile communication systems such as Time Division Multiple Access (TDM...

2. What is Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS)
Before the age of digital services, the predominant technology for analog cellular phone services in North America adhered to a set of standards for Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). Originally, AMPS operated in the 800-MHz frequency band using 30-kHz-wide channels. Avariant of AMPS, known as Narrowband AMPS (NAMPS), uses 10-kHz-wide channels and consequently has triple the capacity of AMPS. Although AMPS or a variation of AMPS is still around— chances are that your cellular phone allows you to switch bet...

3. Cordless Telecommunications versus Cellular Phones ~ Advantages and Disadvantages
Although cellular phones and cordless phones are both wireless, they have come to assume quite distinct and separate applications based on their areas of use and the differing technologies developed to meet user requirements. Cellular and cordless are implemented with their own standardsbased technologies. Briefly, cellular telephones are intended for off-site use. The systems are designed for a relatively low density of users. In this environment, macrocellular technology provides wide area coverage and t...

4. What are Cell Sites
Acellular system operates by dividing a large geographic service area into cells and assigning the same frequencies to multiple, nonadjacent cells. This is known in the industry as “frequency reuse.” As a subscriber travels across the service area, the call is transferred (handed off) from one cell to another without noticeable interruption. All the base stations in a cellular system, including radio towers, are connected to a mobile telephone switching office (MTSO) by landline or microwave links. The MT...

5. Short Introduction in Cellular Data Communications
One of the oldest services for sending data over a cellular communications network is known as “Cellular Digital Packet Data” (CDPD), which provides a way of passing Internet Protocol (IP) data packets over analog cellular voice networks at speeds of up to 19.2 kbps. Although CDPD employs digital modulation and signal processing techniques, the underlying service is still analog. The medium used to transport data consists of the idle radio channels typically used for Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) cel...

6. What is Code Division Multiple Access and its Features and Options
Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a spread-spectrum technology that is used for implementing cellular telephone service. Spread spectrum is a family of digital communication techniques originally used in military communications and control applications. Spread spectrum uses carrier waves that consume a much wider bandwidth than that required for simple point-to-point communication at the same data rate. This results in the carrier wave looking more like random noise than real communication between a sender and r...

7. Which are the basic Features and Options of a mobile phone
Cellular telephones offer many features and options, including Voice activation Sometimes called “hands-free operation,” this feature allows the user to establish and answer calls by issuing verbal commands. This safety feature enables a driver to control the unit without becoming visually distracted. Memory functions These allow storage of frequently called numbers to simplify dialing. Units may offer as few as 10 memory locations or in excess of 100, depending on model ...

8. M COMMERCE ~ SECURITY PAYS OFF
Providing secure payments and protecting the privacy of an individual’s personal data is critical to the growth of mobile ecommerce, also known as m-commerce. M-commerce may someday provide a true alternative to cash and make purchasing items as easy as hitting a few keys on the keypad of your Wireless Internet device. One of the most important issues to overcome in the area of m-commerce is fraud. It’s easy enough to prove payment in the physical world—cash works well and credit cards have sophisticated prot...
