Optimize your Cellphone Bill


I already know that I'm paying way too much for my bill. $130. Yes $130. I don't get it, I simply don't. I had the iPhone with the same features ad my new blackberry and only paid $100 bucks. Which was perfectly fine. I don't understand why they charge me so high. I found this article that will help you actually optimize your cellphone bill. I'm officially disappointed with AT&T, they over charge everything! Here's what I found: You: “Hi, I was looking at my plan and it’s getting pretty expensive. Could you tell me what other plans you have that would save me money?”
Them: Blah blah same plans as on the website blah blah
You: “What about any plans not listed on the website?”
Them: No, what we have is listed on the website. Plus, you’re on a contract and have an early cancellation fee of $XXX
You: “Well, I understand that, but I’d be saving $XXX even with that cancellation fee. Look, you know times are tough so I’m thinking of switching to [COMPETITOR COMPANY]. Unless there are any other plans you have…? No? Ok, can you switch me to your cancellation department, please?”

Psych them out! haha I hope that will work. Becuase these are really tough times.

LG Neon (AT&T)

This phone is an overall good messaging phone. It has great perks and the phone looks like it says it all with the name. The phone actually looks neon! I never thought that LG was a great smart phone, but I don't think that is what they are trying to be. I remember their first messaging phone was the LG Xenon are something like that. lol There phones are so cute! haha They look like they are for kids. This phone isn't for people who are professional! haha The spacing on the keyboard does not look like its roomy. It looks a little cramped if you ask me (referring to the picture above.) Although this isn't a good smartphone, the battery life is simply amazing. CNET says, "The LG Neon has a rated battery life of three hours talk time and 10.1 days standby time. We were very impressed with the 8 hours and 41 minute talk time in our tests. According to the FCC, the LG Neon has a SAR rating of 0.998 watt per kilogram."

Personalizing your Facebook

Finally Facebook has joined Myspace & Twitter! Facebook has allowed their users to have their own personalize name to help locate friends easier. Like myspace and twitter, facebook allowed the "www.facebook.com/abc123" concept. Very nice I say! This goes great for mobile phones who actually use the web but do not have an application for it. Those users could easily type their friend's names and boom! Instantly their page. Until this point, Facebook members' profiles have been accessible by unique URLs, but they're hard to remember because they use identification numbers rather than custom names. But starting Saturday at midnight Eastern, Facebook will start bringing up an alert message to members who visit the site--unless they're members who registered after 3:00 p.m.

iPhone 3G S


I'm sorry to say, but I think I will forever be an iPhone lover. When I saw the features presented on the offical apple website, my jaw dropped at the amazing new tasks you could do with the new iPhone 3G S. I'm excited to get mine! I will be selling my Blackberry Bold. I bought my blackberry bold for 400 for the phone itself (with a two year contract). Other than that, the iPhone is $199 for a 16gb, and it does a lot more than the blackberry. I love my blackberry, but it's just not cutting it for me with the dropped calls and the unnecessary phone freezes almost everyday. I hope that this iPhone doesn't disappoint! I love the new voice control, and especially, landscape text messaging! (= I know it's in the new software update, but still. haha

Palm Pre Sprint


I think I've done an article on this not too long ago! It hasn't came out yet at the time when I wrote it. The most important thing that a smart phone should have a quick interface. Like all phones like Apple iPhone, Blackberry, and the G1, they have all one thing in common. They love to drain their own battery! Overall this seems like a great phone that has been the talk of town eversince it came out. The phone is curvy! But if you are someone who is picky about the size of their phone, then it might be a little too bulky for you. Despite some missing features and performance issues that make it less than ideal for on-the-go professionals, the Palm Pre offers gadget lovers and consumers well-integrated features and unparalled multitasking capabilities.

Samsung Jack


I'm beginning to think that almost every phone company wants to look like the iPhone or the Blackberry. What's up with that? Remember when flip phones were in? haha It's like yeah yeah sure Samsung had the Blackjack for awhile, but still. The new samsung jack looks like a blackberry curve, doesn't it? I guess this is a the cool new phone and it comes not as expensive as the blackberry bold at&t. That's good, if you want a blackberry bold and can't afford it, you could always buy the Samsung Jack. Overall, the looks of the Samsung Jack's keyboard looks nice and comfortable to use for the standard texter. Check out AT&T's website if you want more information. It's a great phone that everyone should check out. "As the successor to the BlackJack series, the Samsung Jack brings a fresh look and some nice feature upgrades to make it one of AT&T's more solid and affordable messaging smartphones." <--from cnet.com. I don't want people to think that I'm a freaking coopying my blogs. haha Also check out that website, they have great reviews.
