Thursday, January 8th, 2009

This article provided by Cell2Get is a review of HP (Hewlett Packard) iPAQ Smart Phone series 600 and 900 Model Cellular Phones.

About a year ago HP (Hewlett Packard) released two third generation Smart phone mobile devices, the iPAQ 900 series and the iPAQ 600 series and Cell2Get was quickly on the scene to review them both. The iPAQ 900 series Smart Phone Mobile Device is a 3G phone that includes a QWERTY keyboard while the iPAQ 600 Smart Phone Mobile Device series is a phone and navigational device. Both of these 3G cell phones have email capability voice and access to enterprise applications of a critical nature. Both the Business Messenger (900 series) and the Business Navigator (900 series) allow you to make calls as well as access the Internet worldwide using UMTS HSDPA which is a tri band and GSM/EDGE which is quad-based wireless technology. The Wi Fi (wireless internet) capabilities of both phones allow VoIP (voice over IP) connections as well.

For the business traveler (those traveling for business purposes) or for the professional a the long battery life will ensure you always have access to your phone and its many features including the turn-by-turn GPS (global positioning system) navigation system. With so many capabilities and potential from this one Smart phone, there is little wonder that the phone will continue to take over the market in terms of Smart phones.

The Importance Of Researching Refurbished Cellular Phones

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008

Refurbished cell phones are growing in popularity these days. They’re a fantastic way to get the phone that you want at an affordable price. Some retailers use the term “refurbished” loosely and might have sub-par quality phones that they’re offering as “refurbished” models. Doing due dilligence and learning about the phone that you want as well as the retailer before you purchase is always a good idea.

The best place to find quality refurbished cellular phones is from the manufacturers themselves, or from any retailer who offers refurbishes cellular phones that come directly from the mobile providers. When you find a phone you hope to purchase, ask questions. Find out what condition the phone is in, and ask what problems there were with the phone before it was refurbished. See how many people owned the phone before it made it to their store. Ask about any cosmetic flaws or defects that may cause any issues with the phone’s appearance or usability.

Finally, you should always look to get a warranty on your refurbished phone at no additional cost. Any good vendor will offer a warranty (typically 30-60 days) on the phone to ensure you get a product you are happy with and that is fully functional. If there is no warranty offer, you should strongly consider looking elsewhere as you could easily get stuck with a malfunctioning phone.

More Great Info On The Classic Bag Phone

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

If you haven’t heard about bag phone yet, they are simply phones that look like handsets. They are much bigger than the light and slim mobile phones in the market nowadays, but a lot of people still opt to buy them because they can be useful for some. This is especially true for others whose jobs entail commuting to different places frequently.

Like most cell phones, the 3-Watt bag phone can be charged inside the car with the help of the cigarette adapter. The phone has a swivel spike antenna which is detachable and is handy when finding a signal for the phone to communicate clearly anytime of the day. Weighing about 10 lbs, the shoulder strap is an optional accessory for it. It also has a caller identifier feature which is very important especially for recognizing the caller, as well as the conference calling option, which can accommodate up to five callers.

The assisted global positioning services can be used for emergency purposes, and the 8mm character height can be easily used to drop a line or two when sending emails or text messages. Since there are only a few network operators who carry the bag phone, there are also refurbished units that they sell around. The phone also comes with a manual which can be used for troubleshooting the phone, as well as changing the settings.

Bottom line is, the bag phone is easy to use, and very practical if you don’t mind using a slightly bulkier mobile phone than the usual.

Let’s Talk About Bag Phone

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

When people see the bag phone for the first time, they might think that it might bee too bulky for a cellular phone. But for people who live in remote areas where there is weak cell phone signal, the bag phone is the practical choice. Here are a few reasons why:

Its large, well-lighted keypad makes it a breeze for the user to make calls, send text messages, browse web sites, or simply use the phone. Its 96 x 64 pixel screen also has an adjustable contrast and brightness options that you can custom to your liking. Aside from the two-way navigation pad and the bilingual settings (French and English), among the bag phone’s unique but well-liked features are the “Restrict my phone number” and “Show my ID on next call” features. These features are not to encourage prank calls but to provide privacy and anonymity for the user.

The two-way short messaging service has a built in T9 dictionary which is very easy to use, especially if sending text messages prove to be a learning curve for you. The phone also has a built-in calculator for last-minute expenses calculation, and the phone has a lot of settings that you can tweak. Among them are the screensavers and wallpapers you can set (just like with any other colored phones nowadays).

If you are tinkering with the phone for the first time and accidentally changed a setting, then the bag phone has a “Reset Phone” option to restore the factory settings of the mobile phone.
