Series 60 Mobile Phones over iPods For Audio Entertainment

There is now a thin line between digital information technology and digital communications. I don't know about you, but I kinda hold a concept of difference between those two technologies. You see, I understand digital information to be of use to computers and the internet for purposes other than communications. On the other hand, I perceive digital communications as the system behind mobile phones, VoIP, and messaging protocols on the internet. By now, I should have also confused you on the matter more than the confusion you already have on those two technologies. But let us refocus and start on the convergence of both technologies for the purpose of audio entertainment.

Series 60 mobile phones and iPods are now used for audio entertainment in a mobile manner. These mobile phones can store a limited number of audio files in the most popularly used compression formats, but the iPod can store more audio files than mobile phones. Also, some would even say that the advantage of iPods over mobile phones is that it has access to audio streamcasts from the internet. Well, I feel a little bit sorry for these misinformed people. You see, Series 60 mobile phones have access to the internet, thus access to internet radio and websites that provide either video streams or audio streams! Plus, mobile phones could also store a high number of audio files that are even playable on it, too. But, this requires the user to first convert the audio files in the most widely used audio compression formats to the AMR format. This is fairly easy to do, specially if you have a separate computer and the necessary software to do such a thing. Finally, a Series 60 mobile phone has the capabilities of telephony, phone call recording, voice recording, and can even connect your computer to cyberspace. That is, if it is a Bluetooth-enabled phone. So you figure out what you need, and let me know what you think about which is better between these two audio entertainment consoles.
