     Cell phones are all around us. We use cell phones to call our friends, send text messages, play
games, and even take photographs. Now imagine using your cell phone to call your air conditioner. If

impossible to you? Well, it could become possible sooner than you think. In the near future, we might
use cell phones as remote controls for the electrical devices in our homes.

off.
