The last week Origami Team member Dustin came back alive to OrigamiProject Blog and posted a little bit about Origamis Future.

In the coming year we’ll see new hardware manufactures enter the market, new designs that offer built in keyboard functionality, and even the reality of “always connected” with integrated 3G access. - He said.

Sounds good, but… The last Saturday I went to John U. Lloyd Beach State Park. This park is around 1.5 miles East of Fort Lauderdale International Airport, this Park is a piece of land/beach close to Fort Lauderdale from where the farer building is about less than a mile. And guess what, the signal on my Cingular Cell phone was poor. That poor that I almost could not get my emails via a BT GPRS connection. We are not talking here about the middle of California Desert, we are talking about South Florida Beaches ones of the most visited Beaches in the whole World. And I say South Florida Beaches because this is something that happens in almost everywhere in these Beaches. So, about what “all time connectivity” we are talking? The Cell Phone System in USA is Bad and Expensive. It’s at the same level than we see in some under developed Countries in Latin America. It’s not the Phone System that we see in Europe, Japan, Korea and even some parts of China.

To talk about to be connected all time we have to start talking about to get our phone system at the same level than in Europe. Then we can talk about “always connected” Origamis. Now, this is just a dream.
