Smartphones - Modern Day Toys

In the past, generally, when we think of toys we would imagine a little boy pushing a bright red truck on the living room floor or a little girl rocking her baby doll to sleep. In this new generation however, playtime isn't so simple. Now, when we are asked to visualize children playing, we think of a boy in front of the TV gripping a game controller or a girl lounged on the couch with a fancy cell phone in hand. Toys nowadays take on a whole new meaning. One of the most addictive tech toys available on the market today of course is the smartphone. To those unaware of what a smartphone is, it's a mobile phone with more advanced computing ability and connectivity than a feature phone. These handy little gadgets can be portable media players, compact digital cameras, pocket video cameras, and GPS navigation units all in one device. Not to mention the ability to play various sorts of games to hinder the nagging boredom. Who wouldn't want to get their hands on this versatile delight?
