This is the official update on my paper for cellular phone technologies and the innovative design of surface computing.  To give the readers a rough sketch or outline on how this paper will be presented, I will go thru each step in general and finalize these steps into a more specific and formal paper.
To start with, we have the evolution of the smart phone, and where the technology will take the smartphone into the future. A brief history will initially start the topic.  As the paper moves along, we will discuss the current trends in smart phones, i.e. siri, better interface, greater processing speed and so on.  From there we will transitions to where the technology is heading into the future as it applies to the smartphone.  Ideas such as holographic imaging, automatic update of surroundings, design innovations are just a few of what is xpected to come down in the near and not so near future.
The paper will then gointo surface computing.  Again a brief overview and history will be presented.  Next will be obstacles met with design interface and some of the makes, specifically apple and microsoft have overcome them.  Again we will be looking at current trends from these companies such as Apple's iphone5 and Microsoft's Surface, I may add Google as well.  Finally we will discuss the avaliability of surface computing, how it will advance in the future, quantum computing anyone? Additionally some advantages and disadvantages will be presented for surface computing overall.
Thank you
