Make your smart phone smarter

During the past few years, the mobile phone has become so much more than a telephone. As PDAs such as the Palm Treo have merged with telephones, cell phones themselves have started acting like PDAs. Aside from the obvious address book and calendar, a common phone on the street might have a digital camera, an MP3 player, an instant messenger, and a GPS locating device.One of the most popular mobile-phone operating systems is Symbian, powering Nokia and Sony Ericsson models, among many others. In fact, the Symbian OS powers more than half of all mobile phones worldwide, and its CEO has predicted that it will eventually take over for PCs entirely.Regardless of what the future will bring, you can do tons of stuff with your Symbian smart phone right now. Watch videos, map directions, or use your favorite instant-messaging software. Jessica Dolcourt shows you how to get started with a new feature, How to make your Symbian phone smarter. If you're already a master of mobile software, be sure to tell us which software you use on your cell phone.
