What if I used an old fashioned, black, round dial phone instead of a
cell phone?
What if my cellphone is made up of hardwired elements and no software?
One might argue that most cellphones are embedded systems (whether or
not it is even possible to alter the software on a daily basis), but
so are most fridges these days.
