Is your website mobile phone user friendly?

by

Websites are adapting to fit the needs of mobile cell phone users as more and more mobile phones come equipped with internet / web access.

Website owners are formatting their sites to work on smaller screens. Many of these sites have dotmobi extensions. Savvy website owners using services such as Dotmobi to create sites for mobile customers will jump ahead of their competition.

As a cell phone user myself I rarely use the web function on my mobile phone because visiting websites and downloading all those kb’s of data is extremely expensive.

Now, if I know of sites that have been specifically formulated for mobile users I would take a chance and use one of those sites if I really needed to get some information from the web.




TestFreaks reviews TVs, Digital Cameras and more

by

We’ve had our Samsung HDTV for just over two years now, but when we did decide to upgrade our old television set to one of the newer types of televisions, namely an HD one we spent a lot of time doing research to figure out which type, and which brand would be best for us.

I mean, buying a large screen television set is expensive! Plus, since each type of HDTV and large screen TV is a little bit different you want to find the one that suites your needs best so that you can have the most enjoyable viewing experience.

That was the dilemma we faced when we were buying our HDTV. I only wish that a site such as TestFreaks was around when we were buying our TV as it would have made it much easier to decide.

TestFreaks is a site that’s still in development. The creators are working on a version of the site that will be even more user friendly in the future, but never mind the look of the site. It’s the information and reviews on the site that matter and that information is already there.

TestFreaks has HDTV, Plasma and lcd tv reviews galore. The listings are laid out either by model number or brand and model number.

Another thing that I like about TestFreaks is that not only do they have great reviews of some of the top Plasma and LCD HDTV models, but they have information and reviews on Digital Cameras, Camcorders, Cell phones, MP3’s as well as top 10 lists of all of these electronic gadgets.

TestFreaks also has a blog and they will soon be launching a web site developer’s forum. Keep an eye on this site. I think it could develop into a very handy resource for popular electronic appliances and gadgets.

Get a free Samsung Upstage with a Sprint service package

by

samsung_m620_sprint_z1.jpg I’m sure you keep hearing about the Apple iPhone. It seems that’s all anyone talks about these days when they talk about new cell phones. It’s strange though isn’t it? I mean the Apple iPhone isn’t even out yet.

Meanwhile, this lovely Sprint Upstage phone is out, and can be yours for free with a Sprint service plan at Wirefly. In fact, if you get this free phone with a new Sprint plan you’ll also get all of your incoming calls free of charge as well no matter who might be calling or where they might be calling from either. Sprint is the only company that offers free incoming calls.

samsung_m620_sprint_z4.jpg The Samsung M620 Upstage is the first music phone of it’s kind. It’s both a full featured phone and a full featured ipod like music player. One side is the music player and the other side is the phone. Cool eh? It’s also got a large color high resolution display and touch – sensitive controls for easy use.

Some of the features of the Upstage that I’m sure you’ll appreciate are the fact that you can download music directly, it features streaming music and video, It also contains a 1.3 MP camera/camcorder with an expandable Memory card slot, and uses BlueTooth technology that supports streaming stereo music.

That’s right. You can watch Sprint TV or listen to streaming music thanks to the phones high speed data download abilities. There’s even advanced voice activated dialing and menu controls that require no pre-training.

Doesn’t this sound like a great phone? It could be yours absolutely free too. Why are you waiting for the Apple iPhone? I mean, is it really that much better than this Samsung phone? I don’t think so … in fact, I think Samsung might have Upstaged Apple with this little gem.

I almost wish that I needed a new cell phone so I’d have a good reason to go and check out the Samsung Upstage. It sounds like a great phone and I love all the features. Samsung is a great brand name too – I’ve rarely heard any complaints about any of the the products they manufacture.
