Nowadays it seems that "phones" are used to take pictures more than to call people. Can't imagine what they will do in another 50 years.
I shall also have my phone about my persons. And in 50 years we will all be wearing a google glass type device.

He kens na where the wind comes frae,
But he kens fine where its goin'.
