Everything About Mobile Phones

Part two of features you may want to consider when buying a new phone:

Push to talk
This is like a walkie-talkie feature that is cool for business folks or those who need constant contact with specific people. The best thing about this is that you don�t need a cell signal to use and therefore no usage of standard minutes.

Speaker phone
Again, for the uber mobile people who drive, type on the computer, take down notes, etc. etc while they talk on their phones. There are units available with full-duplex speakerphones and others that support conference calling.

I am not exactly fond of Hello Kitty stuff even when I was a kid but I have no problem if other people love them. Since I am a very kind person, I will indulge said people and present you � Tada!

Yes, you�re seeing it right - a pink (or purple) Hello-Kitty themed bluetooth headset that you can pair with your cute pink (or purple) Hello-Kitty themed cell phones. Er, before you say, �Kyaaa!� just yet, I�d like to warn you that the price just maybe more than you�re a month�s allowance. But then again�

Apple has released a warning to iPhone users and buyers about downloading unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs that are rampantly available on the Internet. Company executives state that these programs can cause irreparable damage to the iPhone’s software. It�s better to wait for official software updates because any damage caused by said unauthorized programs is not covered by iPhone�s warranty. Besides, the new update will include exciting new features such as iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store, not to mention that you only have to wait a few days for that one as it will be released later this week. So be warned, iPhone republic (catch phrase mine), and listen to your elders.

Sweden’s Mobycator is pretty chummy with cell phone company Nokia as it has recently launched a media publishing system for the Nokia S60 models. This system called Mobypal is a free application that allows customers to publish and store photos and videos on the Internet in a flash. Media can be uploaded to the server via WLAN, 3G or Edge at the original resolution without reducing the quality when published on the site. Another feature is a Mobypal Face book plug-in for users who want to categorize certain media as “blog” which will then be directed to the user’s Face book account after uploading. All of these free of charge!

Mobypal can be downloaded here

Polymer Vision, a Dutch Company has pioneered the world’s first cell phone that features a fold-out display for viewing email, podcasts, text documents, news, and blogs. This amazing gadget is called the “Readius.” Despite its many features, the Readius is actually the size of your usual mobile. Well, quite compact in fact considering that is one with a large 5-inch screen that is folded out from the body of the phone.

Great for people constantly on the go, the Readius is also able to update any podcast, blog content, or email account through the 3G mobile phone network. But personally, I would love it for its reader. Yeah, that�s fun for a bookworm like me.

Unfortunately, the device is yet to hit the market. It�s supposed to come out in mid-2008, and no word yet on the price.

Part one of features you may want to consider when buying a new phone:

Phone book
Are you a social butterfly who has a friends list as long as Rapunzel’s hair? Then you might want to consider a phone that has a big enough phonebook storage. We don’t want you missing out on anyone.

Voice dialing
This feature is perfect for people on the go (especially the ones using headsets) as they can do hands-off dialing.

Camera and video recorder
Older phone models have low-grade VGA but the new ones can have megapixel resolutions for quality images and they also have extra editing features.
