A woman who uses her Pocket PC Phone Edition on the way to work is about to lose her Internet connection. The device predicts this and asks whether she'd like to send her e-mail or download the news headlines. A high-school algebra student is struggling with quadratic equations. He loads a photographic image of his face and a sample equation into a simple but sophisticated computer program. The program distorts the image based on that equation, thus providing a visual illustration of the concept. A broker needs to retrieve some stock quotes, but the XML Web service that provides those quotes is unavailable. Her Web application is invisibly rerouted to an alternate service and she has the quotes within seconds. | ||
