Using electronics today is so much a part of our daily lives we hardly think of the way the world would be without electronics.

Children and teenagers carry mobile phones with them everywhere and use them to take and send pictures, videos, and to play music. They send text messages on the cell phone to other phones and to their home computers.

When you add Bluetooth or headphones the music can be heard by the user, but does not disturb those nearby.
