Review L2 PINK MOTOROLA PINK L2 SLVR STYLE CELL PHONE ATT AT&T CINGULAR BLUETOOTH -
I have had this phone for about 2 weeks now, and I love it. It’s simple, but it has a few extras on it to make it worth it. There is no camera…which I have had a camera on my phone for several years now, so I kind of miss it. But in all actuality, I rarely used it before anyway. The buttons are kind of small, but I had a razr before this so I am used to smaller buttons. You can change your navigation buttons to be what you want them to be. I wish I could check my myspace on this phone, but its not myspace enabled. I also have issues checking my gmail. Most other email services are good though (hotmail, yahoo, etc). All in all, I knew this phone had no camera and I knew the buttons were small before I ordered it. The ONLY major problem I have is, when I got the phone it had a dead pixel on it…but I know Cingular can send me a new phone. Great phone!
Well, I finally started the blog I’ve talking about starting for a while. I plan on doing what most people on a blog, talking about life in general. Also, since I’m such a power-dork, I’ll be talking about some of my interests like comics and technology. So, to all joining me on this journey; “enjoy!”
We had our third week of puppy training today. Boo (our three month-old collie-retriever-chow mix) learned loose-leash walking and leave-it/take-it. Both of which he will need practice to master. But hopefully, with time, he’ll start leaving our sandles alone.
Not too long ago Motorola announced the Moto CLIQ, their 1st android device. It’s set to release some time in the next couple months (I’m thinking between late Oct and early Nov for the holiday rush). Most people I’ve spoken about phones with may remember I’m not a fan of Motorola. However, after seeing/reading several hands-on reviews from the conference I’m more excited for a motorola cell phone than now than I’ve ever been before. Motorola also added their own piece of Motorola specific programing called MotoBlur. What MotoBlur does is makes the Moto CLIQ interact with social networks better than any other phone before it! And on top of that it works well (according to those hands-on reviews I mentioned before). To give my readers an idea of how well the Moto CLIQ interacts with social networks, during the demo they had a call come in and it had the caller’s facebook update below the caller id pic. While that in and of itself isn’t ground-breaking, it’s only one way that the Moto CLIQ works with social networks. While this may read a bit like an ad for the phone (and I am, admittedly, very excited for the phone), I do realize that the phone is a Motorola. By that I mean, I’ve only seen 1 motorola phone in recent memory that was anything above a “meh.” It very well could suffer from most or all the same flaws that plauged every phone built anything like the RAZR (that would be about every motorola phone made in the last 5+ years). I guess we’ll see in about a month or so. And, here’s hoping T-Mobile will make me the new android-champion for my store (I could get the phone for free)!
Firstly, unlike many cell phones that boast MP3 player functionality by way of a supplementary function, the Motorola U9 seems to have turned the tables somewhat in being primarily a feature rich MP3 player that comes with integral cell phone functionality and its notable that Motorola is undoubtedly promoting the Motorola U9 from this angle. The second thing that strikes you is just how similar the Motorola U9 looks style-wise to Creative’s Zen Stone MP3 player but perhaps that’s just us. Still, if Creative’s device has in anyway served as an inspiration it’s by no means a bad thing.
Finished in what Motorola refer to as a ‘metallic gloss, jewellery finish’ the Motorola U9 is a clamshell device boasting a borderless organic light emitting diode 1.45″ 65K outer display unit which comes complete with touch sensitive controls that appear as and when required. A further 2.0″ QVGA 262 TFT display unit is also included on the interior of the device for use when the phone is flipped open.
The device, which measures in at 90mm x 48.6mm x 16.4mm and weighs 87.5g, comes with 25MB of internal memory which can be further expanded to up to 4GB thanks to an on-board MicroSD card slot and supports all the usual suspects as far as file formats are concerned MP3, AAC, AAC+ and WMA with music transfer provided courtesy of Windows Media Player 11.
However, whilst the Motorola U9 also comes with integral stereo Bluetooth connectivity allowing for the use of wireless headsets and headphones as well as Motorola’s CrystalTalk technology which is purported to offer better call clarity as far as cell phone functionality is concerned, the Motorola U9 is a fairly rudimentary Quad-Band GPRS affair offering SMS, MMS, WVIM and EMS 5.0 messaging with a listed talk time of 430 minutes and a standby time of up to 350 hours and an integral camera rated at a fairly mundane 2.0 megapixels.

There are two displays on this phone, the first is an external screen that displays a minimal amount of information but rather is there to give the time and notify you of incoming texts and calls. The main display is where you do most of the interaction with the phone. Reflecting the design language of the super-slim MOTORAZR, the MOTOKRZR K1 exudes pure luxury with clean lines, precision detailing and premium materials shrouded within a distinctive metallic gloss front finish.
The MOTOKRZR K1 20 Megabits of memory are available and but there is a MicroSD slot in which you can insert a larger card to store more of your songs. Other great features include a Bluetooth connection to attach all supported headsets and converse on the go. There is a USB connection through which you can toss all the pictures you’ve taken through the 2 Megapixel cameras on your computer.
The MOTOKRZR K1 builds upon one of the most celebrated designs of the past decade by blending slender form with razor-thin design principles in a sleek clamshell form. The MOTOKRZR K1 measuring a mere 16mm thin X 42mm wide X 103mm long and weighing only 3.6 ounces, the MOTOKRZR slips easily into a pocket or purse.
As a matter of fact, this amazing mobile phone model offers a perfect balance between sleek form factor, craftsmanship and premium capabilities.

Then there is worldwide quad-band connectivity, which ensures that you remain connected in a wider stretch of the world. For more details http://www.luckywirelessusa.com
GSM world cell phones are the talk of the industry. Many businesses and individuals are looking into this latest technology. So for the novice, what is GSM? Simply put, GSM is a digital cellular technology that is open and can transmit voice and data. Where GSM differs from older technology is that the system divides each channel into eight time-slots which allows the same phone to be used around the world.
Using these cell phones gives you access to the same services on your cell phone whether you are in the United States or Europe or anywhere else there is a signal. You can use the same telephone number and have the same access as you would in your hometown in any of more than 200 hundred countries.
So why is this important? The GSM world cell phones give you the ability to have one phone and travel around the world with it. You do not need to worry about changing SIM cards or other elements of your phone, or have to take the dreaded second cell phone with you.
Travelers like things made as easy as possible. The bane of many travelers’ existence has been the need to have two or more cell phones with them when they travel and then try to guess which cell phone will work in which country. This new technology allows you to take only one cell phone with you and have confidence that it will work, including all the features you need, no matter where you travel to.
Sure there are some remote areas where the GSM world cell phone will not work, however, for the vast majority of travelers these cell phones will be the only cell phone they need. It is easy to see why travelers are rejoicing over this new technology. The only thing they have to worry about is having the right electrical adapter to chair their world phone.
As you search online for the best cell phone, you will undoubtedly be impressed with the GSM world cell phones. For anyone who travels out of the country, the practicality of these phones cannot be overstated. Priced right and with a good selection of models to choose from, it is only a matter of time before world cell phones become more popular than traditional cell phones.
The world is a big place but just got a little smaller thanks to the newest technology that has brought us GSM world cell phones

Le numéro 3 mondial rejoint la galaxie Android qui rassemble désormais le Top 5 (excepté Nokia) des fabricants de mobiles.
A l’exception de Nokia, les 5 plus gros vendeurs de mobiles de la planète ont désormais leurs smartphones Android, preuve de la confiance du marché pour la plate-forme de Google.
Après Samsung, Sony Ericsson et Motorola, c’est au donc au tour de LG (numéro 3 mondial) d’officialiser son terminal Android, baptisé GW620. Il s’agit encore une fois d’un terminal à clavier coulissant, un comme le Dext dévoilé par Motorola la semaine dernière.
Entrée de gamme ?
Le terminal est équipé d’un écran tactile de 3 pouces, d’un appareil photo numérique de 5 mégapixels, du Bluetooth et de la 3G.
Selon LG, il devrait cibler les nouveaux utilisateurs de smartphones, traduction, il se positionnera plutôt dans l’entrée de gamme. Son prix demeure toutefois inconnu. Sa sortie est prévue pour la fin de l’année, notamment en Europe.
L’arrivée de LG donne encore un peu plus de poids à l’écosystème Android. Reste que le sud-coréen n’entend pas mettre ses oeufs dans le même panier. S’il a confirmé prévoir la sortie d’autres Google phones, il mise également sur Windows Mobile 6.5 dont la sortie est prévue en octobre.
Le fabricant a ainsi indiqué qu’il lancerait trois modèles animés par l’OS de Microsoft avant la fin de l’année et 13 autres d’ici l’année prochaine.
On peut alors se demander si Android est stratégique pour LG ou si ce lancement constitue un ballon d’essai…
