Free LG Shine cell phone
The LG Shine personifies its name perfectly. Not only does it shine, it positively gleams. It has a lovely polished-metal exterior and a downright sparkling mirror-finish display that exudes luxury and sophistication. In fact, you can use the display as a small compact mirror when the phone is in standby mode. Measuring 3.93 inches tall by 1.99 inches wide by 0.59 inch thick and weighing about 4.23 ounces, the Shine has a solid stainless steel body that makes it feel very sturdy in the hand. The Shine's slider mechanism feels solid as well, requiring a firm push so it can slide smoothly. Similarly to the KE970, however, we do wish there was some kind of thumb grip near the phone's chin to make it easier to slide open--as it is, our fingers often slipped on the phone's glossy surface instead. If you press any button on the phone, a beautiful 2.25-inch screen will appear underneath the mirrored finish of the display. With 262,000 color support, the screen is simply gorgeous, and images are rich with detail and color. Another nice thing with the display is that it has "multi-angle vision technology" that lets you view the display from almost any angle. You can adjust the dialing font style, the brightness, and the backlight time. The menu interface is pretty simple, plus you have a choice of either icon or list menu styles.

Smartphone from Nokia
AT&T has made the announcement official; the latest Symbian 60 smartphone from Nokia, the Nokia 6650 has arrived.
The cell phone is the first S60 3rd edition phone to hit the United States. The phone is Nokia’s way of redeeming itself from the nightmare the E62 and N75 were. The 6650 is sleek looking clamshell phone that pairs the S60 functionality with an affordable price tag is quite a catch for the holiday season. The phone has already proven to be a hit in Europe earlier this year.
The 6650 is available today. The phone has been built with the highest grade materials and has customizable keypad illumination. There’s also a dedicated menu key for AT&T’s ever popular and useful AT&T Navigator. The phone also supports other AT&T functions such as AT&T Video Share and AT&T Mobile Music. The Symbian 60 interface gives you access to a myriad of third party applications ranging from gaming to productivity. The device has a 2.0 megapixel camera with built-in flash that makes for quality photography and video making. The brushed metal surface is a pure delight. The internal 2.2 inch QVGA screen with support for 16 million colors is another feature to look forward to. The 1.36 inch external display and external soft keys allow for perfect capture of image, music playback and easy change of profile settings without even having to open the phone. There’s also stereo Bluetooth and F2P so the phone is a nice Symbian treat for the 3G network.
“Nokia created this device for the thriving consumer appetite for navigation, multimedia and entertainment essentials in one stylish, affordable package,” said Ian Laing, Vice President, Sales, Nokia Inc. “We are excited to introduce this device, built on the most open and mature mobile platform in the world, to AT&T. It is great to continue delivering upon our existing collaboration, further cemented by AT&T’s board seat on the Symbian Foundation.”

Tips & Help for PDAs & Smart Phones
Free Smart Phones
Smart Device Central - Latest Reviews, Tips and Help for PDAs and Smart Phones
For those BlackBerry owners who are just too busy to remember this meeting, or that luncheon, or to pick their kid up from school, never fear, reQall is here--and free. As if your smartphone wasn't already smart enough, reQall introduced a beta version of its first memory aid designed specifically for BlackBerry users.
BlackBerry users will be Ÿber-organized with reQall. In addition to the normal BlackBerry functions--e-mail, calendars, Internet, etc.--reQall allows users to say or text what they want to remember, and presto, the app remembers them. reQall converts voice messages into text, and then sorts those messages into one of three categories: to-dos, notes and shopping list items. Users are reminded of these important notes at the appropriate time.
"People all over the world are using reQall as an indispensable memory aid," said Gabriel Yu, founder and chairman of iTVentures Group, and reQall investor and adviser. " reQall for BlackBerry will make this essential tool available to one of the most digitally active and hyper-connected audiences."
reQall is smart. The app is so smart, it can recognize specific spoken or typed words such as "note," "meet" and "buy," and then files those items in their right place. A user can say, "Tell John to buy milk," and a message will be sent to John by text, e-mail or instant message. It also recognizes dates and times, which allows reQall to set and send reminders at a certain time. You don't even have to talk to people anymore.
Although technology has come a long way from mini-tape recorders, will reQall still seem dorky when someone holds it up and says, "Note to self..."?
reQall is now available and free during the initial beta phase.

By this point, many people are familiar with buying cell phones and the process is pretty much the same when buying a smart device. Of course, the data plans are different—and, invariably, more expensive. Plus, there are a few extra features to consider that may not have been an issue with feature phones, such as the availability of third-party applications. Regardless of the type of device you're buying, here's what to watch out for when signing a new agreement:
When choosing a plan, read the fine print. Over the past year, all the major carriers introduced unlimited voice plans, which will let you talk and use as much data as you want for a single fixed monthly fee. However, the devil is in the details: Sprint throws just about everything in (including mobile TV, text messages, and voice-enabled GPS navigation services), whereas that's not necessarily the case for the other carriers. If you're upgrading from a feature phone (say, an LG en V) to a smartphone, you'll likely have to pay more for the new data plan even if you were already paying for the "unlimited" data plan with your feature phone.
Also, just because you're upgrading your device, it doesn't necessarily mean that the same services will be available. To use the Verizon LG enV example again, if you're watching mobile TV on the phone, and then upgrade to a Motorola Q9c, you'll lose the ability to do it, despite the fact that the new the data plan costs more. Don't ask me what Verizon is thinking here—I have no idea.
Skip the extended warranty. Extended warranties are an efficient way for stores to pad each sale with extra profit. They do this by making a bet: if enough customers pay extra money each month, they'll be able to replace all of the products that break over time and still have plenty of profit to spare. Consequently, I usually recommend that buyers bet with the manufacturer and skip the warranty.
There are few situations in which an extended warranty makes sense. One is with laptop computers—particularly if it's one that the manufacturer, rather than the store, is offering. If you're buying a Mac, AppleCare is worth considering. The same goes for Dell and its options to purchase additional years of warranty coverage.
Cell phone warranties, however, are usually not worth it. I lost a cell phone when I had no warranty, and the price to replace it was steep—$300—since it didn't qualify for a subsidy. But that was nine years ago, before I knew I could buy lightly used cell phones on eBay (and quite possibly, a better one than the one I had, given how fast the models change). If you buy cell phone insurance, you'll pay about $6 per month, but you'll also pay a $50 deductible (plus shipping) to replace the phone if something happens to it. You'll also be without a phone for several days while it's being replaced, even if you pay extra for expedited shipping. Furthermore, the carrier may look like it's offering the warranty directly, but it's usually through a third-party and many expensive smartphones don't even qualify.
Buy accessories online—not in a wireless carrier's store. Sales representatives in wireless stores love to sell phone gear. After all, these products are packed with high profit margins. That's great for them, but that's also exactly why you should be suspicious. Often you can save plenty of money by firmly saying no to the salesperson. No matter how many extra chargers or hands-free devices they insist you need at the point of sale, head home to Amazon or Newegg and order them online instead. Stay tuned for a tips article on how to buy the right accessories for your cell phone at the lowest prices.

Krave touch screen smartphone
Putting the Flip on Touch
Motorola Krave combines the familiarity of a flip design with the excitement of touch and haptic feedback. Without opening the phone, the clear flip provides customers with one-touch access to popular features and services – such as watching V CAST Mobile TV1, accessing photos, playing music and viewing incoming messages. The flip design also makes it easy to place clear and reliable phone calls while preventing touch-screen wear, and a side lock key prevents accidental usage.
“Motorola Krave is uncompromising. It delivers high-quality multimedia experiences while remaining true to the way consumers expect a phone to work and feel,” said Ken Hallman, vice president, Motorola Mobile Devices. “The clear, touch-enabled flip over the large, high-resolution touch-screen is nothing like you’ve seen and yet it’s totally intuitive.”

VZ Navigator1 – Provides visual and audible directions to thousands of destinations, including businesses and other points of interest, maps of locations and offers the ability to share directions with others.
Visual Voice Mail1– Delete, reply and forward voice mail messages without having to listen to prior messages or voice instructions. Visual Voice Mail is the ideal tool for the busy mobile professional who may need to prioritize which messages he or she listens to first.
The dedicated camera key on Motorola Krave provides quick access to a touch-controlled 2.0 megapixel camera. The accelerometer detects the movement when the phone rotates and changes the display, making it easy to catch landscape and portrait shots, as well as capture and view video.
Customers can watch clips from popular video-sharing sites directly from the phone’s HTML browser; and they can enjoy videos and pictures directly from MMS messages, without downloading them first to the phone. Texting and e-mailing is simplified with its virtual landscape QWERTY keypad with haptic feedback, conveniently-sized buttons and accelerometer.
