Cell Phone Assignment


My friend Christina happened to be over this weekend so I seized the opportunity to ask her about her current cell phone usage. She's had an LG Shine for a few months now and uses it to the extent of its capabilities. This includes voice calls, text messaging, taking pictures, occasional videos, and some web browsing. She was also very adamant about how helpful it was as an alarm clock as it is the only one she has. Her provider is AT&T. When I asked her what phone she would buy if money was no option, she told me she was completely content with her current phone and felt no need to buy anything fancier. I tried to tell her she needed a blackberry but she wasn't having it.

From this information, and simply knowing her, I can tell you that Christina is among the Early Majority of the Technology Adoption Life Cycle. Christina is not one to need every new new piece of technology. However, she is always quick to adapt to new technology and doesn't wait until the technology is essentially forced upon her to accept it.
