no I didn't mean voice communication would go altogether, I just think that the actual voice side of it (i.e. not data/sms etc) will be separated into wearable devices which blend with our everyday clothes and which require no hands-on to operate and are uncomplicated because their only function is to provide voice communication
This then would be a device that every single one of us wears and those of us that need more would then have a device not unlike todays multi function devices that give us those features

Oh now i get it,that seems more understandable now.Yes in the context i would have to agree with you.
I just hope we live long enough to see all this future technology come into fruition.

I like your suggestions massuer and I would be keen to use such a 'Garment Gadget', but I can't see it becoming mainstream.
The reason is that many mobile phone users of totally baffled by the sophistication of thier phones and seldom use voice tags. This is why you get phones like the Vodafone Simply. I don't like it but it's reality.

but I think current voice tag technology is in its infancy and the development of AI and speech recognition will easily provide for my suggestion.
Indeed the device itself need not have the power to understand the spoken words. What you say can be sent wirelessly to some powerful central unit that performs the recognition and then actions the dialling commands or whatever
Already on pocketpc Microsoft have
voice command software which requires no training and in my experience using it on the imate JAM is almost always correct. you can press a button and then say any name in the phone book immediately after installation and it dials the right number. you can also say any artist or track title of music on the phone or storage card and it starts playing. its a fantastic and affordable (about £24.99) product and the way I think these things should be

Well, I didn't like this "phone of the future" until I saw it slide-open on the following page. Cool. But I'd say it looks more like the "smartphone of the future".
Masseur has a strong point. I've been looking at cybernetics for years, and expect that the phones of the future will function more that way: voice commands, thought commands, and serious minitiarization.
The phone of the future may be no larger than a bite-sized bluetooth headset.

, simplistic yet smart, no silly wallpapers or photo id calling, just a phone.
true, but they are available now.
there will no need for phones, we will have devices for mind speaking, or stuff like that
sure we can all dream of the future, but when will someone do something about it? When will this 'future' arive? We may not be around for this future, and technology may decrease, so be happy with the phones you have(unless you have a blokia!)

@Glenny
We are living the future today. For example:
I am sitting on an armchair in my lounge (not at a desk), typing on my notebook (computers used to be the size of a room and use tape reels), connected to the internet via Wireless LAN, in NZ and conversing with you and others all over the world, about mobile phones (a relatively recent invention), in real time (not telegrams, stop). Even the 1950's (only 50 years ago) seems a whole world away!
The cars of the future as described in the 50's and 60's are already here too.
In another fifty years your grandchildren will be taking for granted things we can only dream of today.
