Time to Upgrade

Posted By Admin on July 19, 2008 @ 3:48 pm

After having the same cell phone for over five years, I knew that it was definitely time for an upgrade. I had more than got my money’s worth out of my current phone and did not feel guilty getting a new one. I did a little bit of research about gsm encryption, to better make an informed decision on what phone I should get.

I know that phone encryption is not something that a lot of people look at when purchasing a cell phone, but it was something that was important to me. I also wanted some extra features on my new phone, such as an mp3 player and a camera.

After doing a lot of research online, I found my perfect phone. It had the gsm security that I was looking for, the mp3 player, a camera and, as an added bonus, several games to play while I was waiting for the bus.




My First Experience with Mobile Sites

Posted By Admin on May 25, 2008 @ 2:15 pm

After upgrading from my old, pre-2000 mobile phone, I thought that it was time for me to try out some of its’ new features.  Sure, having a color screen was a big step forward in itself, but I thought that I should really put the phone to the test.

So, what I did was see if I could find some wap sites that would work with it.  If you are unfamiliar with that term, a wap site is a site that is designed to display properly on a mobile phone.  Many of the most common sites like Google and eBay have a version designed so that it displays properly on a cell phone.

While browsing around on my phone, I came across a mobile community that I joined that would allow me to have my own mobile site to share with my friends.  From what I have seen, I think that this will be a great way for me to use some of my wasted time on the bus to work to connect with the rest of the world.  All I can say is that it is pretty slick!




I Love Technology and my iPhone

Posted By Admin on February 14, 2008 @ 9:26 pm

Ever since I was a child I have loved gadgets, like computers and video games.  Any chance I had, I was tinkering with computers or playing the new video game systems of the day.

Now that I am older, I can experience my love of technology more than as a child since I now have the means to buy those toys that I want.  Since that is now my reality, I was quick to pick up an iPhone when they came out.

From what I read about the iPhone news at the time, I knew it would be a perfect match for my passion of technology and gadgets.  I also liked the fact that it would reduce the number of devices that I would have to carry around with me, which was a welcome feature.

Since I have bought my iPhone, I have bought a number of iPhone accessories such as a case, screen protector, and car charger.  I have even had the chance to download some iPhone games for those few chances that I have some downtime.

I love technology and I love my iPhone.




A Few New Ring Tones

Posted By Mitefind on February 11, 2008 @ 10:51 am

I came across a website that was offering free Motorola ringtones and I had to stop and take a look, as I have a Motorola phone. The website was not run by Motorola, so I was wondering how they could offer free ring tones. And, being the curious person I am, it got me to looking at other sites.

Up to this point I had never been one to download ringtones. I bought my cell phone for function, not to play with, as a toy, and it really drives me nuts when I have to listen to really annoying ringtones all the time. It seems like everywhere that you go, the more annoying they get.

I had a few Cingular ringtones that came with my phone, but I was always more of a regular ring tone type person. I did, however take a look at the site downloaded a few. They are ones that most people would find boring, but I like them and I was proud that I had taken the initiative to do something out of my comfort zone.




Picking the Best Mobile Phone

Posted By Mitefind on November 16, 2007 @ 4:24 pm

It has been a couple years since I bought my mobile phone and things have changed.  My old phone couldn’t play music, take pictures or hook up to my computer.  Don’t laugh - my phone was made in the stone age.

Now, looking at the phones that are available, I am a little overwhelmed.  With all the options on the market, I am finding it very hard to compare phones - I don’t know which one is better than the other.

So, I have decided to go to talk to a dealer about what I should get.  Now, I wouldn’t mind a phone that can take pictures, play music and hook up to my laptop while I am at school.  After I told the dealer my needs you could see his head wrinkle a bit in thought.

When he opened his mouth, he had two options for me in his hands.  In his left hand, he had the Nokia 6500 Classic - compact, sleek and only a 2 MP camera.  In his right hand he had the Nokia 6500 Slide - the first word that came to mind was smoking hot.  It had everything I was looking for and more - you could hook it up to a television to watch the content on there - I was sold on it instantly.

Just a few minutes later I was walking home with my new phone - and calling all my friends.  After all, I need to show off my new toy - I love it already.




Two Phones, One Look - Hot.

In this day and age, everyone seems to have a mobile phone.  Gone are the days when you were admired for the amazing phone you had - it is no longer an exclusive group anymore.  Everyone has the same phone these days, and honestly it is boring.

Spice your phone up.

That’s right.  Be a leader, not a follower and check out these two hot phones on the market: the iPhone from Apple, and the Prada phone by LG.

The Apple iPhone is one of the most hyped phones ever released.  A sleek phone boasting a new touch screen interface, the iPhone is a widescreen iPod, web browser, email reader and more.  It was just released on June 29, so you can expect some shortages in availability.

The Prada phone by LG is an eye-catcher.  Packaged in a box that reminds you of a luxury watch box, this phone has a sleek, touch screen interface.  It has a video player that supports MP4 format, a 2 megapixel camera and also supports Bluetooth.

Just remember when purchasing mobile phones, the phone you buy says a lot about you.  Do you want to be remembered as a sheep or a sexy fox?  You decide…
