We possess increasingly more personal digital content—digital
photos and video clips, digital music clips, and even cherished
emails. (Admit it—you’ve saved more than one personal email
for no other reason that to read it over and over, you softie!)
The Wireless Internet will encourage the collection of a growing
amount of personal digital content. Some of the newer
wireless devices have already announced plans for MP3 players,
audio-recording capabilities, and built-in digital cameras.
We will soon have the tools to digitally capture and share
like never before. Just as the world was forever changed with
the adoption of the personal video camcorder. (As chronicled
by shows like America’s Funniest Home Videos—just imagine
what the future will bring. Anyone care to tune into America’s
Funniest PDA Audio Captures? Just think: You could actually
win a prize for recording those Dilbertesque comments your
boss makes in the weekly staff meetings.) 219
