Midtown East, New York – video tour of a 1 Bedroom apartment in Manhattan (45th St. and 2nd Av.)
Why New Yorkers Adopt 4G Phones
New York is perhaps the most cosmopolitan city in the United States, if not the world. With an estimated population of 8.4 million people, it is the biggest city in the country, and twice the size of some European nations like Norway. Yes, you have read that right: there are more New Yorkers in this world than Norwegians! With so many people living in such quite quarters, it’s no wonder that New York is one of the most innovative, cutting edge cities on the planet. People adopt new technologies quickly, just like they embrace new fashions, business models, and ideas. It is a free-spirited inventiveness. It is the constant race to the top. It is the fast-paced existence: what’s happening; what’s new; what’s next.
For this reason, wireless Internet and its related technologies have spread throughout the city like wildfire. You are utterly unable to swing a dead cat without finding a café that has free wireless Internet, available to all of its customers. And in the same swing of this proverbial dead cat, you will naturally bump into about 10 people clicking away on their 4G Internet cell phones.
What is the profile of the typical 4G phone user in New York City? That, my friend, is an impossible question to answer, because 4G phone users come as diverse as the city itself. Naturally, you have the powerhouse business men and women. They are dressed sharply in tailored black suits, crisp white shirts, and ties or practical heels. They check their emails, correspond with clients, and watch the stock market while riding the train into the Financial District. They rely on the speed that these phones provide, as well as the convenience and efficiency of always being connected with the outside world.
Then, you have the small business owners. These are people who own a dry cleaning business on the lower east side, or the newest microbrewery in Brooklyn, or a 24-hour convenience store in Midtown. Any small business owner knows that you are on-call 24/7. Even if it is not your shift, an emergency can happen at any hour. That is why it is good to have a reliable phone with great service always by your side. You can also conduct business from your phone, by ordering parts and supplies, and checking out online wholesale distributors to get the best deals.
Then, you have the spoiled teenager or college student. These are kids who probably have not paid for their own phones, but instead received them as gifts from generous parents. You can often see these kids hovering around the different New York University, Colombia, or Fordham campus buildings. They might also be sipping expensive take-out coffee, and carrying canvas tote bags filled with philosophy text books.
Then, of course, you have the harried stay-at-home uber mom. This is a woman who has likely quit her high-power career to take care of the kids, and is now dedicating herself to motherhood like it is a fulltime job. She needs this high-technology phone so that she can better micro-manage her children’s playdates, French lessons, and yoga classes, of course!
