Despite Google keeping plans for a Google Phone firmly under wraps we have already covered a number of patent documents showing that the forthcoming GPhone will predict your searches and probably be the most useful phone ever made.
It now appears that IBM have exactly the same thinking as Google when it comes to mobile phones:
In five years, however, mobile devices will have the ability to continually learn about and adapt to your preferences and needs.
For example, when a user enters a meeting room with several people, the mobile phone will automatically divert to voice mail. Your favorite pizza joint will know when you’re on your way home after a late night and ping you with a special-price, take-home meal just for you.
Compare this to the comments made by Google in their Google Phone patent application and its clear that the two tech giants are thinking along the same lines.
Expect automated pizza ordering within the next 5 years, courtesy of either Google, IBM or a combination of the two.
