It might raise some curiosity why technology is considered to be virtual water for teens. Water is essential for life and like water, technology has become a part of their everyday life. Through technology we are introduced to the first telephone patented by Alexander Graham Bell to the era of IPhones, IPads, Samsung Galaxies and not to mention BlackBerries. These models give birth to the phenomenon known as smart phones because of the apps and the different creative features associated with them. They can be considered as smart technology for a smarter generation.

If you didn’ t know then now you know but in 2002, RIM developed the BlackBerry 672 featuring an integrated speaker / microphone and international roaming capabilities operating on GSM / GPRS wireless networks. However as 2003 approaches we saw the development of the BlackBerry 7730 smartphone and this features a large, bright colour screen and support for worldwide international roaming on GSM / GPRS networks. It is believed that the competition from the Apple Inc has forced Research in Motion( R. I. M.) to develop the blackberry z10 and the blackberry Q10 respectively.
