Cell Phones Emporium

One the newest editions to the Pantech lines of cellular phone is a Mexican release, Pantech C600. Also available as an Unlocked Cell Phones. Now that 3G communication services are available in Mexico, it opens a new potential for cell phone companies like Pantech to tap into the Mexican market. Although this is Pantech’s first entry into the Mexican market, it plans to sell more 3G phones in the growing Mexican market in the future. The C600 includes an MP3 player, dual camera, movie player and other customized features for the average Mexican consumer.

Before they released this phone in Mexico Pantech researched the needs of the Mexican consumers. This allowed them to determine what they were seeking with the popularity of 3G technology before them. This is a great phone on Pantech’s part and the first of many 3G phones that Pantech tends to release in Mexico. The popularity of this phone makes it inevitable that many more 3G phones with similar capabilities will be released in Mexico throughout the rest of 2008 and into 2009 as well. As Mexican consumers join the rest of the world in wanting a phone with camera, music and video capabilities, Pantech will need to keep an eye on the market so it can keep on top of what consumers want.

It seems that almost every time I watch television, I see an advertisement for the iPhone that talks about some of their new, cool applications. In fact, some could argue that the success of the iPhone is a direct result of the numerous applications (apps) that one can download and use on the phone. It isn’t much different than having a mobile computer that fits in your pocket, really. However, other companies have recognized the consumer interest in app-ready phones and are beginning to release phones and applications for phones that are not the iPhone.

The first apps developed for cell phones were meant to provider users with more information, better organization, and so on….essentially ways to improve productivity and efficiency. However, today there are apps available for just about anything that you can imagine. The purpose of this article is to highlight a few of the apps that are available for most phones (not just the iPhone) and explain ways that users without app-friendly phones can get them at a reduced cost – by purchasing used cell phones.

Apps from Google

A while ago, Google released a cell phone, called the G1, that had apps designed for it by Google. However, they’ve expanded their reach by designing apps that function on a number of phones. Their most popular apps are a Gmail app and GoogleMaps – which can help people stay in touch and in the right place at all times.

Skype

Chances are, you’ve either heard of or even used Skype. Skype is an internet based phone service that allows users to make free “phone calls” using their computer and internet connection. Well, now the same service is available on any internet-enabled cell phone. Of course, mobile carriers are not exactly thrilled about this app as it allows users to make phone calls without using any minutes, but they do earn some profit on the call by charging people for data-transfer plans. However, in cases like international calls, the Skype application can be a great way to make calls on your cell phone without paying international fees.

Weatherbug

A number of people are familiar with Weatherbug, a desktop application that supplies subscribers with weather reports in real time, including any severe weather alerts. Now a similar app is available for internet-capable cell phones, which allows users to stay on top of the weather wherever they are at, at all times, in real time. This can be helpful for people that do a lot of travel, for example.

Radio Applications

If you prefer to listen to the radio instead of MP3s, you’ll be excited to learn about the numerous radio applications that are available. These apps function using the streaming feature of the station’s internet broadcast. This provides an alternative to filling up your phone with MP3 files and allows you to do things like listen to your favorite local morning show during the commute when you’re across the country on business.

Apps Just for Fun

Not all applications for cell phones are aimed at being productive or useful, some are simply designed to be silly or fun. Of course, there are a number of games that can be downloaded and played. Another funny app is the Light Saber application that functions using the accelerometer installed on most new cell phones. This app lights up the screen like a light saber from Star Wars and emulates the sounds one would hear during light saber fights as the phone is moved around.

In conclusion, be warned that not all apps are free and that some apps that are free to download cost money to use. Be sure you understand all terms and conditions of each app that you download to keep yourself from having to pay additional charges down the road. Also, if you don’t currently have an app-ready phone but would like on, you may find that app-ready phones are pretty high end and expensive. One good way to have your cake and eat it, too, is to buy a used or refurbished cell phone from used cell phone vendors that is app-ready. In many cases, these phones can be found as much as 50-60% cheaper than they cost at full retail price.
