Couple of very interesting anthropological studies on mobile phone usage.
- 78 percent of females surveyed prefer to give their cell phone number to someone they are attracted to.
- Cell Phone Replaces the Little Black Book. More than two-thirds of women (73%) of women have ditched traditional, paper address books for their cell phones to keep track of contacts.
- Average number of cell phone contacts: 63
- What's in Your Pocket? Almost one-third of respondents said they can tell a good amount about a person by the type of cell phone they have (32%).
- 12 percent of females surveyed said that they would be less likely to date someone if they had a big and bulky cell phone.
- Who needs a watch? Nearly three-quarters of females surveyed look at their cell phone, rather than their watch, to get the time (74%).
- Further evidence that points to use-case distinction between men and women. Women use camera, messaging and games, while men are more preoccupied with e-mail and the internet. Also, women gab just as much as men do!
About time we saw a Gucci device with a serious camera and some social networking goodies in there!!
