A year ago, Apple Inc. released its first smartphone with touch-screen features. The latest feature tremendously boosted the interest of its competitors. And now that they have launched the 3G iPhone, the device will increase further enthusiasm for the touch-screen technology.

According to Jennifer Colegrove, an analyst from iSuppli Corp, When Apple Inc. released its first-generation iPhone, most of the mobile companies probably said that they can also create a touch-screen mobile phone like that of the iPhone or even better.

Because of the trend created by Apple Inc. Sprint Nextel Corp. already released their version of the iPhone called Samsung Instinct. Verizon Wireless on the




other hand, already launched two different mobile phones that also use a touch-screen technology. Meanwhile, there are now reports that the Research in Motion will be releasing a BlacckBerry model with touch-screen features as well. Expect a new mobile phone from Sony Ericson that uses the touch-screen in the next few months.

The touch-screen technology is now a very helpful tool for Asian users. By using a stylus, Chinese as well as Japanese can easily write their native language on the screen. Jennifer Colegrove mentioned that it is easier for the Japanese and Chinese to draw these native characters instead of entering it at the mobile phone using a keypad.
