스마트폰이 대체할 수 있는 모든 것들
스마트폰이 대체할 수 있는 모든 것들
_ MIT 테크놀로지 리뷰
대단합니다. 이렇게 많습니다.
Physical objects fully supplanted by iPhone 4S with retina display:
~ 50 pounds of books (via Kindle, iBooks)
Kindle e-reader
daily newspaper
pocket digital camera (via built-in camera)
holga film camera (via Instagram, ToyCamera app)
pocket foreign language dictionaries
scanner (via Genius Scan)
bank ATMs (via USAA's app, which allows deposits via snapshot)
GPS device
road maps / printouts from Mapquest and Google Maps
reporter's notebook (I find tapping out notes isn't any slower than writing them)
voice recorder
handwritten grocery lists (via DropBox-syncing Plaintext)
Nintendo DS
iPod
radio (via NPR app / Hype Machine / iTunes / Spotify / Pandora)
paper comics (via Comixology)
set-top box remote (via the Roku app)
paper receipt file (via EZ receipts)
Partially supplanted:
television
business cards (via CardCloud)
This list doesn't even include all the things my phone does that no other object accomplished before I got it, including music recognition via Shazam, countless location-dependent mobile services, the indescribably wonderful Star Walk app, etc. It also doesn't include some just-over-the-horizon technologies that will make our phones even more useful (and irreplaceable).
Will be supplanted:
Credit and debit cards (via app, NFC or QR codes)
loyalty cards
Looking further into the future, there is the very real possibility that our phones will quite simply become our default computing hubs. And by computing, I mean just about everything with a chip in it.
Could be supplanted:
set-top boxes
driver's license or other forms of ID
laptop (via a docking solution)
