Statistics show that around 88% of us don’t leave home without our mobile phones. Given that most of us rely on these ubiquitous devices every day losing one can be a disaster.

Increasinglly compact and lightweight mobile phones mean that they are easily lost, misplaced or fall out of pockets. In 2008 around 200,000 mobile phones went into washing machines, around 600,000 were dropped down the loo and 55,000 were left in the back of taxis.

There is also the growing and worrying risk of theft. In the UK alone more than 2 million mobile phones are stolen each year. This means that 1 mobile phone is stolen around every 12 seconds and this worrying trend is on the increase.

Initially, when a phone is lost, there is the cost of buying a new one. There may be significant call charges amassed during the time between when a phone is stolen and when it eventually gets disabled. Then there is the impact of lost data, especially contacts.

It is estimated that fewer than 2 in 10 mobile phone users keep their phone SIM card data backed up to a separate device. Although modern phones come with software that makes it simple to transfer data to a computer still people don’t take advantage of this simple facility.

So what can we each do to protect ourselves and our valuable data against loss or theft?

  1. The first thing is to make it difficult for a thief to actually steal your mobile phone. Never ever leave your phone unattended in your car and always store it securely.
  2. Make certain to record the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number from your mobile phone. This is a number that is unique to every mobile phone and can be used to disable a phone if it’s been lost or stolen.
  3. You can set your mobile phone to only operate after a configured PIN has been entered. Having to enter a PIN each time you want to use your phone can be a bit of a nuisance but it will prevent a thief from running up significant call charges on your account.
  4. Another simple suggestion is to switch your phone to silent alert or vibrate mode when in busy public places so that no one is alerted if your phone rings.
  5. You might like to engrave your name and your car registration details onto your mobile phone and its battery. Alternatively there are systems for attaching unique serial number stickers (as provided by trackitback.com) to your phone which will help identify your phone if it is lost or stolen.
  6. Get into the habit of backing up your SIM card data as often as possible. If you are adding new contacts and appointments every day then you should be backing up your mobile phone data every day.
  7. Finally, make certain that you have some mobile phone insurance that provides the protection that you need. Not all mobile phone insurance policies are the same so make certain that the one you choose provides the protection that you need.

Hopefully, by following these simple steps you will avoid becoming one of the lost or stolen mobile phone statistics.

Though faced with a global financial downturn, people still seem to can’t get enough of mobile phones. Last year, the statistics soared as 304.7 million cell phone units were sold worldwide. It’s really amazing how, from a simple technological trend, they’ve grown incessantly into a way of life. Their impact is undeniable and their influence is expansive. And while most of us are still overwhelmed by how fast these machines are evolving, mobile phone, regardless of their size, shape and brand, have appreciably simplified the process of communication, and to some extent, the accomplishment of tasks.

Motorola was the first company to issue a portable, non vehicular cell phone prototype and this was named the “radio telephone system”. This later became the impressive wireless system of communication that we are closely familiar with today. As several more years passed, other companies took a hand at developing and manufacturing mobile phones; this time, with more sophisticated designs and features. Innovation sprung forth different cellular phone categories with varying functionalities, from basic phones, to feature phones, camera phones, music phones and smart phones.

Motorola is still in the business and has done well at continuing its legacy. In fact, it remains to contribute beneficial inventions to the constantly growing population of mobile phones, taking almost 9% of the market share for 2008. The RAZR series was among its most notable models, which donned a stylish and sleek flip design. Although its specs fall less in comparison to other cell phone brands, especially concerning battery life and camera quality, the RAZR did receive a warm welcome from the public upon its release and even defeats the next brand in sales.

Sony Ericsson, an commercial competitor, works to upscale the facets Motorola fails to deliver impressively. Though it rates lower in sales as compared to the latter, it did however manage to snag the public’s favor. Taking about 8% of the total market share for 2008, Sony Ericsson is currently one of those who lead the industry with its ground breaking mobile phones. This company, established back in 2001 through the merger of two huge corporation, Sony (which fundamentally is involved in electronics) and Ericsson (a Swedish telecommunications company), successfully dominated the scene with the release of their Cybershot and Walkman series. With these, the company was able to standardize how music and camera phones. Possessing huge storage capacities, kick ass sound systems and vivid imagery, the Cybershot and Walkman series became one of the most sought after phones for a time. The XPERIA collection, Sony Ericsson’s trademark smart phone and latest offering, now incorporates Windows Mobile OS, which gives consumers a unique and complete technological experience.

Now, it may come as a surprise to some, but Samsung actually defeats both Motorola and Sony Ericsson in its market share for last year. This mobile phone brand took 16% of the total, following Nokia’s 38%. Samsung is not purely a telecommunications company but it does compete well with other brands. The same as Motorola, Samsung aims to provide consumers with handy, elegant, advanced but user-friendly phones.

These competitors can’t help but out do each other with what their respective equipments can offer. This, in turn, grant mobile phone users more choices for their communication tools.

Cellular phones will definitely make this simpler for everyone.

TRAINING CHILDREN TO BE RESPONSIBLE

One way to turn this cellphone ownership subject into something positive is training children how to be responsible cellphone owners. Setting parameters as to their usage is an essential element when considering giving kids their own cellphones. While listening to music and taking pictures may be some of the things that children want to be able to do with their cellphones; permitting them to browse the internet or chat without parental supervision should be something parents need to think twice about.

In this case, getting them a phone with only the bare essentials could be the answer. Also, giving these cellphones as rewards for doing well in class will teach children that they have to show good behavior in order to be allowed to have their own phones.

Finally, one way to also teach them about responsibility is training them to put aside allowance so they can buy their own prepaid loads; or both parents and children can split the cost of the phone. There are many ways for parents to get something positive from these tools.
