As hands-free calling laws go into effect around the country, Bluetooth headsets are slowly becoming a must-have accessory for those who wish to continue chatting on the phone while on the road. Even now, Bluetooth headsets have reached a critical mass, with many people opting to wear headsets even when walking around the office. But if you're not the kind to wear your headset all the time, you might encounter a few problems. Headsets can be a hassle to find in a hurry, especially if you have to fish around in your bag to get at such a tiny device (which isn't such a good idea when driving). They're also easy to misplace, and most people don't remember to charge them until it's too late.
Well, LG has come up with an incredibly ingenious solution by building a Bluetooth headset directly into the phone. That's right; the LG Decoy is the first ever cell phone to have a built-in stowaway Bluetooth headset. It's conveniently docked in the back, and you can pop out the headset when you need it, and just snap it back in when you don't. As gimmicky as it may seem, we absolutely love this idea of having two devices in one. We did find the headset quality to be rather lacking, and the Decoy's surface is a little too reflective for my liking. In the end, however, if you want to get a cell phone and Bluetooth headset in one convenient package, the Decoy is definitely the device to get. It's currently available for $179.99 with a two-year service agreement and a $50 discount.
Design
At first glance, the Decoy looks like one of the glossiest phones we've ever seen. Indeed, its entire front surface positively gleams with a reflective mirror finish, right down to the navigation keys and the steel-tinged joystick toggle. Measuring 4.01 inches high by 1.97 inches wide by 0.67 inch thick, the Decoy is not a very compact phone, but it has a nice enough size to accommodate its large 2.2-inch display. It does weigh about 4.05 ounces, which makes it feel very solid in the hand. Though we can appreciate the glittery appeal of such a shiny surface, we found that it is very fingerprint prone, and that it's difficult to see the display especially on a bright and sunny day.
The LG Decoy has a very shiny reflective surface.
As we mentioned, the Decoy has a generous 2.2-inch 262,000 color display front and center on the phone. It's bright, vivid, and shows off the colorful menu interface very well. You can adjust the font size as well as the backlight time, but not the brightness or contrast. Thankfully, you're not subject to Verizon's clunky old menu interface--the Decoy offers tab, list, and grid menu interface options so you can arrange it how you like.
Underneath the display is the navigation array, which consists of two soft keys, a center joystick, a dedicated speakerphone key, and a Clear key. On standby mode, the center joystick also leads to three user-defined shortcuts (to the bottom, left, and top). If you toggle it to the right, it will lead you to a My Shortcuts folder, which can also be customized to your liking. Though we found the keys to be quite slippery, they had enough definition that they were still easy to find and press. We also found the joystick toggle to be very responsive. We could be quite gentle in pushing it around, as it is sensitive to even the slightest of gestures.
You slide open the phone by pushing the bottom lip of the front surface up. That will reveal the full alphanumeric keypad, as well as the Send, voice command, and End/Power keys at the very top. These topmost keys were the hardest to get to, since they're positioned right up against the bottom of the slider. Otherwise, we found the keypad to be very pleasant to use. Unlike most slider keypads which are flat, the Decoy has keys with curved textured bumps that we could easily find by feel. The volume rocker and charger jack is on the left spine, while the microSD card slot and dedicated camera key are on the right.
The LG Decoy has a built-in Bluetooth headset on its back, as well as a camera lens and a self-portrait mirror.
But the most important aspect of the Decoy lies on its back. When you turn the Decoy around, you will see a rectangular bump jutting out from the top part of the phone. This is actually a built-in Bluetooth headset, stowed away in a custom built dock. Press down on a tiny latch at the top, and the headset will pop out. The headset itself is incredibly slim and flat, measuring 1.6 inches long by 0.8 inch wide by 0.2 inch deep, and weighs less than an ounce. It has a multifunction button on the front, which also houses an LED indicator light, and the volume rocker sits on the right spine. On the back is a simple springy ear piece that actually fits quite comfortably in the ear, resting just outside the ear canal.
Pairing the Decoy with the headset couldn't be easier. When the headset is first removed, you will be automatically prompted to pair the headset by pressing down on the multifunction button for a few seconds. After that, you're connected and ready to go. From then on, whenever you remove the headset from the dock, you will automatically be in headset mode. And whenever you snap it back in the dock, headset mode will be turned off as well. If you like, the Decoy also comes with a plastic "cavity cover" to cover up the dock when you're using the headset. Even though you can charge both the headset and the phone simultaneously, there's also a separate headset charging dock if you want it.
We have to say we loved this idea. The built-in Bluetooth headset is certainly not the best Bluetooth headset we've seen--the volume rocker is really skinny, it feels a little chintzy and lightweight, and you don't get fancy noise-canceling technology. But the convenience factor simply can't be beaten. You no longer have to worry about losing your headset, and you don't have to worry about it having a low battery, since it simply charges with the phone.
Next to the Bluetooth headset dock is a camera lens as well as a self-portrait mirror.
Features
Aside from the built-in Bluetooth headset, the Decoy has plenty of features going for it as well. It has a generous 1,000-entry contacts list, with room in each entry for five numbers, two e-mail addresses, and notes. You can also save callers to groups, pair them with a photo for caller ID, or one of 23 polyphonic ringtones and alert sounds. Other essentials include a vibrate mode, a speakerphone (which can be activated prior to a call), text and multimedia messaging, a calculator, a tip calculator, a calendar, an alarm clock, a stopwatch, a world clock, and a notepad. More advanced users will appreciate voice commands, instant messaging (AIM, Windows, and Yahoo are supported), Web e-mail (only MSN, AOL, Yahoo, and Verizon), a mobile Web browser, and the capability to use the Decoy as a USB mass storage device. Another great add-on is VZ Navigator support, which provides turn-by-turn directions.
We also really like that the Decoy has plenty of Bluetooth profiles opened up. Not only does it have stereo Bluetooth support, but you can also use the Decoy as a Bluetooth modem. Other supported Bluetooth profiles include phone book access, object push for vCard and vCalendars, file transfer, the capability to send contacts and calendar events, and support for printing and sending pictures.
The Decoy also has EV-DO support, thus allowing it access to Verizon's full array of V Cast broadband services like V Cast streaming video and the V Cast Music store. The user interface and player controls are similar to that of other V Cast phones; the music player for instance displays album art and songs can be sorted by genre, artist, and album. Also, if you wish to buy a track from the online music store, each song costs about $1.99, and can be downloaded over the air to the phone as well as to your home PC. If you wish to upload your own songs, make sure they're in WMA, MP3, or unprotected AAC and AAC+ formats. Do note that the Decoy only has about 50 MB of internal storage, so you should consider investing in a microSD card for additional media storage. The Decoy supports up to 8GB microSD cards.
The LG Decoy took mediocre photos.
Also in the Decoy is a 2-megapixel camera and camcorder. You can take photos in four resolutions (1,600x1,200, 1,280x960, 640x480, and 320x240), five white balance settings, and five color effects. Other camera settings include a night mode, a self-timer, three shutter sounds plus a silent option, photometry, and brightness. After taking a picture, you can edit it a little with the built-in image editor that lets you zoom, rotate, and crop the image. Photo quality was pretty mediocre. You need to hold the phone perfectly still to avoid blurry shots, and colors looked rather overcast and unnatural. As for the camcorder, you can record video with sound in 320x240 or 176x144-pixel resolutions. Multimedia message clips are capped at 30 seconds, but you can otherwise shoot for as much as your memory card can hold. Video quality was predictably choppy, grainy, and pixelated, especially when there was a lot of movement.
You can personalize the Decoy with wallpaper, banners, sounds, and more. There's a variety of graphics and alert tones for you to choose from, plus you can always download more from Verizon via the Web browser. The Decoy does not come with any games, but you can download some via the Web browser as well.
The Bluetooth headset on the Decoy has its own set of functions as well. They include answering, ending, and rejecting calls, last number redial, voice command support, call waiting support, a low battery status indicator, plus the ability to transfer calls to and from the handset (as mentioned earlier). Another very nice bonus is the fact that this mono Bluetooth headset has A2DP support, meaning it can also be used to listen to streaming music. Though it's not the best music listening experience, it's handy when you don't have a stereo headset around.
Performance
We tested the Decoy in San Francisco using the Verizon Wireless service. We were impressed overall by the call quality. Callers heard us loud and clear, with very little static and echo in the distance. Similarly, we heard them just fine as well, though there was a slight hiss in the background at times. When the speakerphone was on, callers reported a slightly more muddled sound, and had trouble hearing us at times. This was dependent on how far we were from the phone--the closer we were to the microphone, the less distortion there was.
We also really liked the sound quality of the Bluetooth headset. No, there's no fancy noise-canceling technology here, so we don't recommend using it in a particularly noisy or crowded environment. But for quieter environments like the car or the office, the headset works just fine. In fact, aside from slightly more echo and static, callers couldn't hear much of a difference between handset and headset use.
We were also pleased with the EV-DO speeds. We managed to download a song in under a minute, and V Cast videos loaded without a lot of rebuffering. Streaming video quality is comparable to other V Cast phones, with blurry and pixelated videos, especially when there was a lot of movement. That said, it's good enough for a quick video clip when in a bus or train. As for sound quality, the speaker on the Decoy output decent sound, but as with most phone speakers, the music had a very tinny and hollow quality to it. We recommend headset use for the best sound quality.
The LG Decoy has a rated battery life of 3.83 hours talk time and 13.75 days standby time. The Bluetooth headset on the Decoy has a rated battery life of 2 hours talk time and 3.33 days standby time. According to FCC radiation tests, the LG Decoy has a digital SAR rating of 1.22 watts per kilogram.

Apple iPhone 3G (16GB, black)
By: Kent German
The 16GB Apple iPhone 3G
Almost one year after the original Apple iPhone went on sale, Apple CEO Steve Jobs has announced a 3G version of the device, finally putting to rest months of rumors and speculation. While some of the rumors panned out--the new handset will offer full GPS--other rumors, like the addition of a 32GB model, fizzled. But even with the long list of basic features that Apple still is denying us (hello, multimedia messaging?), the addition of 3G support is a big win. If data speeds hold up as Jobs demonstrated (more on that later), the new iPhone really will put the Internet in your pocket. We also approve of the new price: $199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB version, a pleasing price for all but the poor souls who shelled out nearly $600 a year ago. The new iPhone will go on sale July 11.
DesignThough the iPhone 3G is thinner at the edges than its predecessor, the phone measures a hair thicker (0.48 inches versus 0.46 inches) in the gut. The other measurements are the same except that it weighs just the slightest bit less (4.7 ounces versus 4.8 ounces). Otherwise, the iPhone 3G shows few cosmetic changes from the front--same display size and resolution, and the single Home button sits just below the screen. We're very pleased to see that Apple has done away with the irritating recessed headphone jack, which now is flush so that you'll be able to use any 3.5mm headphones you like.
But turn over the iPhone 3G, and you'll see more significant changes. A black, plastic skin replaces the current silver-aluminum back. The swap may cut the cost, but we worry about its long-term durability. The 8GB model will come in black only, while Apple promises the 16GB version in black and white. The white model is a bit random--we were expecting something in red--but color is a personal choice. The camera lens, volume rocker, charger port, speaker, microphone, power button, and display locking switch show no changes. Our News.com colleague got a hands-on with the new device and reports that it feels similar in the hand to the current model, with the exception of the tapered edges.
3GWith support for three 3G bands (850, 1900, 2100) and both UMTS and HSDPA networks, the iPhone 3G is well positioned for using high-speed networks all around the world. Considering that Apple is promising to bring the device to 70 countries, it had better be. During his WWDC keynote, Jobs demonstrated Web download speeds between the two iPhones. On the original model, which runs on a 2.5G EDGE network, a photo-heavy Web site loaded in 59 seconds, while the same site loaded in 21 seconds on the new device--impressive, but we take it with a grain of salt for now. Real-world tests, particularly with a multitude of devices flooding the same network, will be more telling.
GPSThis is one feature that was on our original iPhone wish list. While the current iPhone location services find your position via nearby cell phone towers and satellites, the iPhone 3G uses Assisted GPS supplemented by satellites. It also offers live tracking so you can monitor your progress as you drive (or walk) along. We're excited to see this feature as well, as it fills in another gaping hole on the original handset. You'll also find photo geotagging, and third-party applications with turn-by-turn directions are in the works.
Third-party appsSpeaking of which, the iPhone 3G will indeed support the collection of apps available through the iPhone SDK--no surprise here. Apple promises to open an apps store in early July (Apple didn't release an exact date); we're guessing by July 11. Gaming apps should feature prominently; many will integrate with the phone's accelerometer.
Enterprise supportWorker bees will be pleased to know that the iPhone 3G will offer support for Microsoft Exchange Server. That will bring push e-mail, contacts and calendar, remote wipe, global contacts access, and auto-discovery. That's another welcome change as it puts the iPhone in the hands of a whole new class of corporate users who now will be able to get their work e-mail on the iPhone.
Battery lifeLast year Jobs said that Apple had not included 3G in the first iPhone because it would have made too many compromises with the handset's battery life. But now it appears that Apple has solved that problem. The iPhone 3G promises a solid 5 hours of 3G talk time, 10 hours of 2G talk time, 5 hours of 3G Internet time, 6 hours of Wi-Fi Internet time, 7 hours of video playback, 24 hours of audio playback, and 12.5 days standby time. The audio and video times are unchanged from the original iPhone.
What else?Since the latest iPhone will support the 2.0 software, additional new features will show up at launch and beyond, including contacts search, iWork document support, the capability to view PowerPoint attachments, bulk move and delete, a scientific calculator in landscape mode, parental controls, and support for 16 languages. You'll also be able to use a graffiti-style application for entering characters in Asian languages.
What's missing?Unfortunately, we hoped for an even larger bundle of features in this round. Apple still leaves multimedia messaging out of the mix along with voice dialing and video recording. We still don't understand why Apple can't include these basic features, many found in even the cheapest and simplest cell phones. We were also hoping for a landscape keyboard, the capability to cut and paste, Flash support for the Safari Web browser, expanded memory, and additional Bluetooth profiles. Apple, you left us hanging in a big way. It's also disappointing to hear that the dock is now sold separately for $49, but we suppose that helped cut the price. No, you don't need the dock, but it's nice to have. Even the power adapter and the SIM card removal tool that now come in the box won't make up for its loss.
Should you buy it?If you're an iPhone fence-sitter, now's the time. The addition of 3G and GPS, the affordable price tag, and extra features from the iPhone 2.0 software update make the iPhone 3G a worthy prospect. Unlike the previous iPhone, which we liked and recommended with reservations, we're much happier with what this new handset has to offer. iPhone 3G isn't perfect, but there's a lot to like here and we approach the device with much anticipation. We'll update this page with a full, rated review once we get our hands on the hardware.

Cell Phone Model Tips
By Henry Matthias
Today's cell phone users are constantly bombarded with new models; more often than not, buyers just do not know which model to choose. So you won't get caught in a 'decision trap', become educated before you make your next phone purchase; some interesting buying facts are supplied in this article.
Every user will occasionally experience the race against battery life as they try to use up every ounce of power there is before recharging. Unfortunately, this can cause many problems with your cell phone battery and could shorten the life of your battery between charges to the point where you're charging more than you're talking!
The back light is the second biggest power drain of any cell phone battery but this can be either turned off or use the auto back light off function if your phone is supplied with one. When the phone is operational, it is constantly searching for a signal which is ok when there is good signal strength but if this is lost, it still tries to find a signal using more power and draining the cell phone battery in the process; the same way that long conversations do. When ever you use your cell phone; talking, playing games, listening to music, taking picture with the flash or surfing the Internet, it will drain the battery faster so limit these activities otherwise you may not be able to make that urgent call you need.
Don't forget that nothing is free and although you may have been allowed to download a few new wallpapers and ring tones when you bought your phone, if you do not cancel this, they will continue to send them to you at regular intervals and charge you accordingly. As far as children are concerned, parents should look for a facility where they can disable this feature or ensure that only the parent can order them.
When buying a cell phone with a one or two year contract or pay-per use agreement, be sure to read the fine print and consider how many minutes you plan to use each month. Only you will know how often you make calls and how long they are on average but the pay-per use agreement is probably not going to be the most cost effective if you are someone who uses the phone a great deal. Consider the features you want, as long-term plans often have more features for less money or even as a bonus, at no charge; so ask if all your features, such as caller ID, will work when roaming.
If you travel as part of your work then ensure that roaming charges are part of the contract you decide on and be careful of those hidden costs that are only noticed after you have signed the agreement. Many contracts come with an insurance warranty for the phone because it is easy to loose or damage a phone that is carried with you everywhere. You will have the assurance that it is replaced should anything untoward happen.
If you decide to buy your cell phone on the Internet, make sure it is not an old or outgoing model unless you do not mind of course; otherwise you may find it doesn't have all the features you want included.

Pros Cons of Free Cell Phones
By FreeCellPhoneGuy
Finding a free cell phone is easy but finding the right cell phone is not. If you are looking for a free cell phone or a replacement cell phone then you are in the right place. Compare the best cell phone deals and cheap cell phone plans right online. When you have found a phone with the features you need then search for the carrier who offers the best coverage and reception services in your area. Comparison shopping for cell phones has never been this easy.
The hottest new cell phones include the Apple iPhone, Palm, Razr and Smartphone PDAs like the Treo and Blackberry. These cell phones include tons of new features unheard of only a few years ago like built in cameras, video recorders and players, voice recorders, MP3 players, walkie talkie instant connection, pagers, SMS text messaging and high speed Internet access.
When choosing a new cell phone or pre-owned cell phone, it is important that your cell phone has the features that are right for you. There are many styles of cell phones including basic flip and bar style cell phones, smartphones and PDAs, camera and video phones, GPS, and MP3 phones. Choosing the right cell phone brand is also important and the most popular include Audiovox, Hitachi, RIM, Apple, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Palm, Firefly, Panasonic, LG, Sanyo, Samsung and Kyocera. Many free cell phone offers include free shipping but calling plans that include free long distance, free roaming, free night and weekends minutes will probably save you more money over the life of your contract. Other standard calling features that are usually free include voice mail, caller ID, 3 way cenferencing and call waiting.
Naturally, "free" cell phones aren't really free and you'll end up paying for the cell phone over the lifetime of your cellular contract. Even so, free cell phones can save you a lot of money and let you start cell phone service for little or no money down. Most of these free cell phone offers are found online as online agents have less overhead to support then regular brick and mortar stores. Shopping for a free cell phone online can save you a lot of money but you will have to wait a few days before you get your cell phone. The calling plans offered by every cell phone retailer are exactly the same but sometimes there are additional plan features that only one type of dealer can offer so it pays to shop around before deciding on where you buy your cell phone and not just taking the first offer you see.
Not all cell phone providers use the same cellular technology and there are pros and cons for each network. Analog networks will work with older, but in some cases more reliable, basic phones while the newer digital networks allow you to use all the latest bells and whistles even if you never use them. The coverage area of the different networks will also vary with the more advanced digital networks usually found in more populated areas. This also means that you won't be able to roam in a network that has different technology than your handset. However, no matter what cell phone network you choose to use, there is always going to be a low cost or free cell phone offer that will work for you. Many of these free cell phone offers even include no credit card or no credit check applications and come with free accessory kits that include everything you need to use you cell phone. Many times these accessory kits will include just a basic wall charger but other times may include car chargers, headsets and leather cases. These accessory kits can be huge money saver for you considering that you would probably just end up buying them anyway.
GSM: Short for Global System for Mobile Communications, GSM is the most widespread standard for cell phones networks in the world. If you're a jetsetter who likes keeping in touch during your far-flung travels, you should go with a GSM-enabled phone, and here in the U.S., AT&T and T-Mobile are both GSM carriers. CDMA: Short for Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA originally came from the military and all calls are actually scrambled with 64-bit encryption. Verizon, Sprint and AllTell use CDMA here in the US and these networks include the high speed digital access that many premium customers desire. As these networks use different technolgies, phones from one network will not work on a different network and this could be a problem for people who travel frequently.
Prepaid plans for cell phones, also known as "pay as you go" plans, allow you to buy your minutes as you use them. With a prepaid cell phone you have control over how much you spend each month, without having to worry about getting hit with overage charges from your cell phone company. Prepaid phones and plans are also great for those without enough good credit to qualify for a wireless contract -- or individuals who just don't need all the minutes offered by a standard cell phone plan. However, there are also drawbacks to using a pre-paid plans. The minutes are much more expensive than they are with regular monthly plans for one thing. Another problem is that the minutes are only good for a specific period of time and usually expire after 60-90 days. But if your credit is less than perfect, a pre-paid phone may be just the answer for you especially if you can't afford to pay the hefty deposit that the regular monthly service will probably require.
See a hot new cell phone that you just have to get? Want to add another line of service? If you have completed your original service contract then it may be time to contact your carrier and see what kind of deals they'll make on a new cell phone or contract. And if another carrier has a better deal, make sure that you let your service provider know about it. If they don't match the offer, then ask to speak with a supervisor and threaten to leave. It's costs the cell phone companies upwards of $150 to secure a new customer so the last thing they want to do is lose you to a competitor. In the cell phone industry this is known as "customer churn" and the cell phone carriers will do almost most anything to prevent this.

If you have completed your original service contract then it may be time to contact your carrier and see what kind of deals they'll make on a new cell phone or contract. And if another carrier has a better deal, make sure that you let your service provider know about it. If they don't match the offer, then ask to speak with a supervisor and threaten to leave. It's costs the cell phone companies upwards of $150 to secure a new customer so the last thing they want to do is lose you to a competitor. In the cell phone industry this is known as "customer churn" and the cell phone carriers will do almost most anything to prevent this.

iPhone Bluetooth Accessories Add To Iphones appeal
By Paul J James
When you look at buying an iPhone it is very easy to come to the conclusion that it well ahead of other type of phones in terms of looks and use. Also, it easy to say that it in fact is in a class of its own and accessories like iPhone Bluetooth would only make it more appealing.
The Options
The good news is that there are indeed several options to choose from including the excellent VXI BlueParrott B100 Wireless Headset.
Its features include:
- Range up to 75 feet from the base - Professional noise canceling microphone
- Headset controls include Volume, On/Off, Call Answer,
- 128-bit digital encryption provides air-tight security
- Compatible with Bluetooth technology cellular phones
- Allows for call waiting and three way-calling
- Talk time: up to 6 hours without recharging
- Standby time: up to 100 hours
Plantronics Voyager 510 Wireless Headset
Main Features:
- Lightweight design for all-day wearing comfort
- Noise-Canceling microphone for clearer conversations
- WindSmart provides wind-noise reduction technology for optimal sound clarity
- Versatile headset for multiple Bluetooth devices
- Headset folds for easy storage
- One-touch call control buttons And To quote laptop magazine:
" Most Bluetooth headsets manage to defeat the purpose of going wireless. Either they're too painful to wear for extended periods of time or they run out of juice halfway through your workday. The Voyager 510 is different. In addition to offering a whopping six hours of talk time, it's the most comfortable wireless headset we've ever tested"
In fact, this iPhone Bluetooth will automatically detect the device being used and thus has greater usefulness.
etyBlu Bluetooth Headset
It features two microphones - one located internally at the end of the earpiece and one at located in boom. Features include noise cancellation.
The boom microphone and an in-ear noise isolating earphone work together to provide clear, high quality sound at both ends of the conversation.
The etyBlu noise canceling boom microphone can be quickly plugged in when required for noisy environments. When the boom is unplugged, the internal microphone automatically takes over.
Talk time is up to 7 hours and standby time is up to 100 hours.
With this iPhone Bluetooth accessory you can talk and also listen to music at the same time and with much more accuracy that was possible with other iPhone headsets.
In fact, there is also Apple's own iPhone Bluetooth headset that allows you to answer iPhone calls without the need of any wires and the compactness as well as light weight of this iPhone Bluetooth accessory makes it a very useful addition.
The longer talk and stand buy times are made possible by the lithium-ion batteries that are in-built and which are also rechargeable via USB. In addition, you get the iPhone Dual Dock as well as iPhone Bluetooth Travel Cable with the package.
More and more Iphone bluetooth accessories will became available as more people come to use this fantastic easy to use tool. Or maybe that should be big boys toy?

Why Used Cell Phones Are So Beneficial
By Chris Channing
If you are a person looking to buy a cell phoneone and are interested in a good price over how new or advanced the phone is on the market buying a used cell phone is for you. In the growing market of used cell phones you can buy reliable previously owned cellular phones at a much cheaper price than a flashy new phone.
These social habits are not necessary or beneficial to the consumer with a tight budget seeking a capable phone that comes at a cheaper price. This is where the purchasing of used phones becomes a useful market for today's public.
When looking to purchase a used cell phone rather than an over priced new phone, there are many advantages. The first of which will almost always be the price. With the market in today's world a person can buy almost the same phone at a fraction of the price as to buying a phone brand new. Consumers who are interested in the capabilities that buying used cell phones has in the promotion of a better environment should look into used cell phones also. By purchasing a used phone you prevent the wasting of the energy used by the manufacturers, as well as the raw materials put into the phones.
In the United States of America alone there are much more than two hundred million phones in use at this very moment. With the modern output of new technology and the high demand for that technology there leaves a large amount of overturn with these products. This puts the advantage in the hands of the buyer.
If a phone is no longer the newest on the market it does not mean that it is no longer able to be used. A phone may only be the best on the market for a few days, this does not mean that the phones that are left behind do not connect you to the same people that they used to. That shows the fact that buying and selling used phones makes sense to the smart shopper.
As the demand for newer, smaller, better phones increases the shopper of the used phone is presented with the ability to purchase phones that are still technically new. In some cases a person could find the exact same model of phone they had been considering buying brand new that they saw in television or displayed at a store. These phones can be bought with the same satisfaction as their younger siblings with just a little more mileage added on.
Some people might fear that when buying one of these new phones they might be at risk to buy a phone that has been damaged by the previous owner. This is a risk at a pawn shop, or with private affairs, but in some cases used phones can be bought with the warranty still attached. This means that is the phone stops working within a certain period of time you can return it to the company and receive a cash refund, or another phone.
When a phone is thrown away by original owner that piece of technology is put to waste. All of the work and materials that are put into the phone becomes meaningless. With the buying and selling of used cell phones the phone is not wasted, but put in the hands of someone who can continue to appreciate it. The people who buy used phones are not only at an advantage when money is tight, but also buy saving the materials that would be put to waste otherwise. In all this shows the ability to make a better decision all the way around.

80 GB hard drive in PlayStation 3
By Roberts
Writing this article for you was a pleasure, I hope it be likewise for your to read it.Please read it to find out all about playstation 3 and its awsome 80gb hard drive.
With the PlayStation 3 console you can experience the most entertaining gaming times that you have ever had. It is the best and the most modern home entertainment available today and very good value for money. Of course there are many types of PlayStation consoles and the PlayStation 3 with its 80GB hard drive is the best option that you can have.
The storage space in the PlayStation 3 which has an 80 GB hard drive is enormous. All your games and entertainment can be stored in it. It is possible for you to play games online if you become a member. The membership enables you to download as many games as you want, and everything is free of cost. Your friends can also be contacted through it.
There are many features of the PlayStation 3, which makes it an excellent buy. Above all its swanky appearance shows off its beautiful design. High definition games and easy interface are its advantages too and it can also play high definition Blu-ray movies. The operation of the play station is fast, but very silent.
If you buy a PlayStation 3 which has an 80 GB hard drive, you do not have a large option of games that you can play on it. For the purpose of backward compatibility you need special software. The compensation is the huge hard disk storage space available on it and the advantage of playing the games belonging to your older PlayStation 2. It is indeed a pleasure playing your games on this new console than the older one, even though you have to wait for some time before you can buy some new titles at retail stores.
The PlayStation 3 would have been the most sold console if it had not been for the restriction of games that can be played on it. There are only a limited number of games like Resistance: Fall of Man and War Hawk and Heavenly Sword. Third-party games like Call of Duty-4 and Assassin's Creed are excellent games which can be played on it.
The PlayStation 3 with an 80 GB hard drive is certainly to be recommended, if you ready to spend five hundred dollars for it. The only thing is the restriction of games that can be played on it, but otherwise it can function as a normal computer, if you want it to.

What Is M-Commerce Mcommerce Mobile Banking or Bank?
By Todd Schuyler
It is everything that E-Commerce is, but a lot more! M-commerce is the buying and selling of goods and services through wireless handheld devices such as cellular telephone and personal digital assistants. Known as next-generation e-commerce, m-commerce enables users to access the Internet without needing to find a place to plug in. The emerging technology behind m-commerce, which is based on the WAP has made far greater strides in Europe, where mobile devices equipped with Web-ready micro-browsers are much more common than in the United States. But now, with SelfBank Mobile Banking and Payments, M-commerce is going to a whole new level, not requiring special software or hardware and can work on any phone or carrier and POS system.
In order to fully exploit the m-commerce market potential, handset manufacturers such as Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, and Qualcomm are working with carriers such as AT&T Wireless and Sprint to develop WAP-enabled smart phones, the industry's answer to the Swiss Army Knife, and ways to reach them. Using Bluetooth technology, smart phones offer fax, e-mail, and phone capabilities all in one, paving the way for m-commerce to be accepted by an increasingly mobile workforce.
As content delivery over wireless devices becomes quicker, more secure, and scalable, there is widespread speculation that m-commerce will surpass wireline e-commerce as the method of choice for digital commerce transactions.
Financial services which include mobile banking. This is when customers use their handheld devices to access their accounts and pay their bills) as well as brokerage services, in which stock quotes can be displayed and trading conducted from the same handheld device.
Telecommunications, in which service changes, bill payment and account reviews can all be conducted from the same handheld device. Service/retail, as consumers are given the ability to place and pay for orders on the fly.
Information services, which include the delivery of financial news, sports figures and traffic updates to a single mobile device. Several companies are experimenting with speech recognition software as a way to ensure greater security for m-commerce transactions.

Why Used Cell Phones Are So Beneficial
By Chris Channing
The selling and purchasing of used cell phones is a market that the world wide public could and should get involved in. In today's technological world people see the newest and best phones as a goal, they see it as a way of showing their superiority over others.
In today's world people see having the best, most technologically advanced phones as a way to show that they are better than the people around them. These social habits are extremely unnecessary for the smart shopper when in the market of purchasing a cell phone at a good price. This is where the buying and selling of used cell phones becomes an advantage to those with the intelligence to take advantage of it.
There are many pros to buying used cell phones over their flashier more expensive younger siblings. Number one of course is the price; with the market today a person could buy almost the exact same phone they desire at a margin of the price. Some may fear that there could be risks as to the condition of the phone, but some phones may still include warranties. Environment buffs can even find a cause in the used cell phone market. Saving energy and raw materials is an important factor in the recycling of these previously owned cell phones.
There are well over two hundred million phones in use right now in the United States alone. With this enormous output of new technology and the high demand put in place for this technology a high overturn rate is put on the old disregarded phones. This puts the advantage of the situation in the hands of the buyer.
If a phone is not the newest on the market it is not useless, it can still be used to call the same people as it had been before. A phone will usually only be the newest, best thing on the market for a few days, this does not mean it is worthless as a communication tool. This only expands on the fact that the smart buyer should take advantage of the opportunity to buy these phones at cheaper rates.
As the demand for newer, smaller, better phones increases the shopper of the used phone is presented with the ability to purchase phones that are still technically new. In some cases a person could find the exact same model of phone they had been considering buying brand new that they saw in television or displayed at a store. These phones can be bought with the same satisfaction as their younger siblings with just a little more mileage added on.
People may have the fear that when they buy one of these used cell phones it may not work, or the original owner could have damaged it. Although in some cases this fear may be justified, when a phone has a warranty it should not be considered a problem. With a warranty the owner of a phone that stops working within a certain amount of time can return it for a cash rebate, or another similar phone.
When a phone is thrown away by original owner that piece of technology is put to waste. All of the work and materials that are put into the phone becomes meaningless. With the buying and selling of used cell phones the phone is not wasted, but put in the hands of someone who can continue to appreciate it. The people who buy used phones are not only at an advantage when money is tight, but also buy saving the materials that would be put to waste otherwise. In all this shows the ability to make a better decision all the way around.

It helps the customers get rid of the complexities. iPhones are the typical example for this. It is the kind of mobile phone that embeds all the qualities of information, communication and entertainment.
Packed with many special and potent features, IPhone is one of the ultimate techno gadgets in the market at the present time. Since its launch in early 2007, iPhone has been an unremitting part of breathtaking newspaper articles, tech blogs over internet, which covers the IPhone reviews in big flashes. In particular, we can fairly say that the new invention safely stand with all the hype written over the inestimable iPhone reviews.
The most attractive part of the Apple iPhone is its 3.5" touch screen display, which has a high resolution of 480 x 320 pixels. For people with never-ending hunger for music, this phone will stand tall. The phone has inherited most of the goodies of a typical iPod, plus it also features mobile connectivity to sites like iTunes, to browse, buy and download music. The 3.5 inches screen is a visual delight - don't be surprised if you see the screen changing from portrait to landscape, if you hold iPhone horizontally! It is the Accelerometer feature of the phone.
Rallying around the success story of iPod, Apple, launched iPhones in January 2007. iPhones were first launched, in the United States and later in the United Kingdom, Germany and France. The launch was surrounded by media speculations, which stayed for several months. The pre-launch iPhone reviews promulgated lots of biases about its connotations.
iPhone is launch in USA with phone locked with AT&T in January 2007. At this moment, iPhone can be found in United Kingdom, Germany and France. At the end of 2008, iPhone is expected to come to Asia as an unlocked version.
But sidelining all such facets, Apple iPhone has come up with great mark and has hit the market with tremendous returns. The standard cost of the iPhone extends between $400-$500 USD. While, few nags for its high pricing, the rest are contented with the high pricing in lieu of an outstanding gizmo with latest built in features. Seeking the remarkable growth and responses from the market, the company is getting ready for the next roller coaster ride.

Should You Buy the Garmin StreetPilot?
By Derrick Bogaster
The StreetPilot c320 is the equivalent of the TomTom "Go" and the Magellan RM300. Garmin is promoting it as a "Beginner's GPS Car Navigator" and well, this quite an appropriate description. This GPS model is tremendously trouble-free to use, unproblematic to input address and other data, and has a restricted quantity of features meant to avoid confusion.
Although, if you want your GPS to be more hardcore, then this is not your GPS model. Don't expect anything extreme from these units. The StreetPilot markets an easy to control, able car navigator with the necessary features of other car direction-finding units but without the hassle that a lot of users expect from other models. You can definitely operate as soon as you get it, with only a small amount of time learning to use the model.
It has to be remembered that this GPS device is a car navigator. This device comes with a built in speaker and one of the best audio and routing directions. It is currently using Garmin's version of Naqteq road maps. The c340 allows the user to key in 3rd party provided CSV files with locations of speed cameras, school zones, and other traffic hazards.
The screen can be read in sunlight and it comes with a battery charger that can be re-charged using the USB holder that comes with it. The battery will last about 8 hours after recharging.
Like most Garmin GPS units, the StreetPilot utilizes a touch screen to enable users to enter information like their chosen destination or route into the system. Besides the touchscreen, the unit has two other controls which keeps it in line with the theme of being simple and easy to use. The two other controls are an ON button and a sliding volume control which can be used using your fingertip.
To load the maps, or to upload/download data, you use the USB device. Alternatively, so that the maps can load faster, you can take out the SD card and use a memory card writer. Map loading times however, shouldn't be an issue for the StreetPilot's target market.
As with most modern day GPS devices, the StreetPilot is free of the inaccuracy problems that have plagued older GPS models. The CtiySelect function allows a user to track the road that they are traveling along and the CS/CN feature makes sure that the streets name is display well ahead of the car reaching the turn.
In summary, if you are looking for a simple but effective GPS unit that anyone can use then you should take a look a the Garmin StreetPilot.

Look up Cellphone Number Information
By Pauline Stradlen
A cellphone number lookup service provides an easy way to find information on a cellphone number that called your work, home, or mobile phone. You might like to check on your partner in case they are cheating, or you may have missed an important business call. Cellphone number lookups can get you the information you need, without leaving your computer.
Cell Phone Number Lookups - Your Options
To begin a search you'll need to find a website that provides a cellphone number lookup service. If you are looking on the Internet I am sure you'll come across countless sites that offer free reverse lookup services.
Most of these free sites will do a decent job of providing information for you, but only if you are looking for a landline number that is not listed. However as we all know there is an increasing number of mobile phone numbers being used. Free services will not be able to help you if you're researching a mobile phone number, or an unlisted landline number.
In these cases, you will need to find a paid service. This is not such a bad thing, because you will end up with more up-to-date information, and also with a lot more information about the individual than you thought possible, such as information on family members, relatives, and a lot of other background information.
For any paid service you should only need to register once and this process is relatively simple. With most of these paid services your membership will entitle you to an unlimited number of phone number searches, so from then on you only need to log in to get the information you need.
After you've registered, you'll be able to do your cell phone number lookup. Simply enter the area code and seven digits of the phone number in question. After you hit "Search," the system will make a match using the number and its extensive database of records. While most reverse lookup services contain hardly any records, some have wide coverage across the U.S., so you'll get your results within seconds.
When available, you'll find out the name of the cell phone number's owner and their address, as well as background details you won't find through any free services.
If you are looking for information on a particular cell phone number, then I recommend you go straight to the website below. You will get the information you need rapidly, and they provide a 100% money back guarantee.

What Is a Reverse Phone Number Look up
By Pauline Stradlen
A reverse phone number lookup is very useful in this day and age when every one has a cellphone, for example you may have written down someones number but can't remember who it was that gave it to you. If the phone number is a landline number it is relatively easy to use a reverse lookup service to get information on the owner, including their name and address. It can be more difficult however to perform a reverse lookup on a mobile phone number. The main reason for this is that the free directories don't have access to the cell numbers, as they are held independently by each individual carrier company.
There is a way to get this information on cellphone numbers, although not for free. There are a few sites that hold databases on both landline and cellphone numbers. The cellphone companies that own the records and information, sell it to third-party vendors who can access this information for you, for a fee.
These databases hold a large amount of information, and not just names and addresses, you can access criminal records, civil records and various other information necessary for background checks. For a one-off fee you can often search as many numbers as you wish, and many services will also provide information on unlisted numbers.
The information that you can obtain from a good paid service, is equal to that you would pay top dollar to a private investigator for. This information can be used to carry out background checks on new employees, babysitters, your daughters new boyfriend, the uses are virtually endless.
I would warn you against sites that offer free reverse phone number look ups, as in my opinion they are often covers for paid companies. I have not yet found a free service that can access both mobile phone and residential information. These sites will normally let you run a search for free but will then charge you for the results, this can be extremely frustrating.
After you have run a search, you will probably be redirected to another site where you will be expected to pay for a service. The good quality sites that will charge you for a reverse phone number look up, do so for a good reason. These sites pay for access to the cellphone companies large databases, and they need to recover these costs. Don't forget that these sites should offer a moneyback guarantee, if they don't then look for another.
There are a hundred different reasons why you would want to run a reverse phone number look up, if you are suspicious your husband is cheating, or your teenager is running with a bad crowd. Whatever your reason these are very useful tools that everyone will be using in the future.

GPS Integrated Mobile Phones
By Stewart M. Russell
GPS stands for Global Positioning System. It is a technology that is used to track down people and things. When they are used in mobile phones it provides a service that can be highly effective in the event of an emergency. Some brands of mobile phones have integrated this technology in their products. Phones like the Nokia 6110 Navigator, several models of Blackberry and the Nokia N95 all have this technology on board their phones.
Currently, GPS functionality is only available in sophisticated and highly priced mobile handsets. But, because the demand for GP-integrated mobile phones keep increasing, more affordable, smarter and appealing GPS mobiles will be in the market soon. The majority of mobile phone manufacturers are investing heavy amounts to improve on GPS technology.
Currently, navigation is the main use of GPS, but that's not what's interesting the investors. While people who refuse to use paper-based maps rely on GPS for accurately pinpointing locations, the ultimate use of GPS technology will be using it to deliver location-specific services. The software used with the GPS satellite links will be able to show a particular person's exact location, allowing emergency services, businesses and other individuals to track down the person, whenever needed.
This might seem like the privacy of individuals will be in jeopardy but the ultimate goal of GPS technology is safety and helping the services industry. Typically the government will limit the use of GPS technology in the private sector. This is necessary to stop anyone from gathering information on individuals without that person's permission.
GPS still suffers from the interference of tall buildings and areas that are under development. Technology is working to eliminate this problem. Currently, GPS is able to locate specific areas and roads by locating the person using a GPS-enabled phone. Phones that have GPS functioning are able to get information based on the individual locations.
In the future, GPS mobile phones will be connected with social networking sites, allowing the two parties to communicate in real-time. So, the sites can be updated as and when things happen in one place.
MySpace and Facebook have already taken measures to integrate the technology, by introducing the mobile version of their sites. The primary aim in this integration is to allow user generated content to be uploaded efficiently and conveniently from where the user is.
GPS is a great and modern way to keep track of elderly relatives, children, important shipping activity etc, but the technology has the potential to become an annoyance to everyday life. This is mainly due to one factor - unethical marketing practices, such as targeted location-specific advertisements, can be used on GPS mobile phone users.

Currently, GPS is able to locate specific areas and roads by locating the person using a GPS-enabled phone. Phones that have GPS functioning are able to get information based on the individual locations.
In the future, GPS mobile phones will be connected with social networking sites, allowing the two parties to communicate in real-time. So, the sites can be updated as and when things happen in one place.
MySpace and Facebook have already taken measures to integrate the technology, by introducing the mobile version of their sites. The primary aim in this integration is to allow user generated content to be uploaded efficiently and conveniently from where the user is.
GPS is a great and modern way to keep track of elderly relatives, children, important shipping activity etc, but the technology has the potential to become an annoyance to everyday life. This is mainly due to one factor - unethical marketing practices, such as targeted location-specific advertisements, can be used on GPS mobile phone users.
