LG Cookie KP500: Next To Best?

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

While LG ‘Prada’ did decent, LG Cookie KP500 did wonders. May be you could name the ‘Cookie’ a revised adaptation of ‘Prada’ The news of LG Cookie KP500 first came in September, 2008 and by December 2009; LG’s new product was out in the public.  One of the most affordable and reasonably priced handsets, LG Cookie KP500 borrowed its design from LG Renoir.

LG Cookie KP500 has quite interesting features, which are -

Cookie KP500 - Design and Look-

In terms of the display of the phone, Cookie does a fairly good work. No, actually the phone is  slightly on the boring side as the phone lacks nifty designs or color or looks (but much better than LG Prada). Still], this phone has been doing outstanding in the market and the sales of the phone show the same.

Sales Of LG Cookie KP500-

In February, 2009, LG Cookie KP500 went on to becoming United Kingdom’s most wanted touchscreen handset. As a matter of fact, with in nine months of its release, KP500 sold 5 million units and it has been announced that by the end of this year, that is 2009, KP500 will have 10 million phones sold all across the globe. Ten millions undoubtedly is a massive number! The high sales have made Cookie KP500 one of the best commercial successes till now

LG Cookie might not be the best phone, but it surely can be equated to the best. What else would you expect in a price half the price of what you would have to pay for the best phone?

Motorola’s Android :Sholes

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

In the year 2008, Motorola went through a steep downfall in its global market share. However, in the beginning of this year Motorola managed to pull it off by making a decent profit. And now it’s time for Motorola’s much hyped Android -powered Smartphone. (There is going to be around another twenty Android devices towards the end of 2009, one of them being a Samsung launch - Samsung i7500 and two other products by Motorola. G1 and Magic from HTC have already been launched, while Acer and Sony Ericsson are likely to come out with their Android gadgets by the end of this year- that is 2009.) So that will make a bunch of Android Smartphones in the market, but Motorola’s Sholes is {anticipated} to top all other Android devices, both in terms of looks and applications.

A Quick Lool At Motorola’s Sholes -

The first time when a little time back, in July, the pictures of Motorola Sholes leaked out, it turned out to be no different than people had thought of. With that I do not mean the design and features of Sholes weren’t good - the appearance is worth a look. Also, Motorola might be the first Android manufacture to support a physical keyboard.

The Expected Features of Motorola Sholes Are -

•    3.7 inch touch screen(capacitance based)
•    5 mega pixel autofocus camera
•    GPS(Global Positioning System)
•    Bluetooth 2.0
•    A slide out QUERTY keyboard
•    256 MB RAM and 512 ROM
•    A micro SDHC slot supposedly supporting card up to 16GB size
•    WiFi
•    3.5mm standard headphone jack

That indeed sounds like a good deal of killer applications.

Motorola Sholes’s Launch-

On September 10th, Motorola made a little announcement about Android in San Francisco.

Motorola’s Sholes is expected to be launched in public sometime in October, 2009. Hopefully, the resulting product that is brought to the market meets people’s expectations as the look of Motorola’s Sholes did.

BlackBerry Is One Of The First!

Friday, May 8th, 2009

It used to be that only business professionals had the need of a handheld device, for those times when they were away from the office or in a meeting. However, times have changed and life has become busier for everyone. The stay at home parent finds that they cannot keep up with their children’s schedules and appointments. Even those without children find that there are appointments that they must keep up with. Enter into the world of the PDA and Smartphone to help manage tasks and appointments.

Try a very good smartphone named the HTC Touch I suggest you give it a go, read some HTC Touch.

Are you sick and tired of lugging around an appointment book, a cell phone and a laptop just to stay connected with work and friends? Are you tired of forgetting important appointments and not being able to communicate on the fly? Then perhaps there is an answer to your communication and scheduling dilemma. You may need to look into purchasing a Smartphone to help you manage your busy schedule.

The Smartphone is not a new invention. The Blackberry, Palm and other smartphones have been around for quite some time and have proven to be quite useful. Cell phone companies have jumped on the bandwagon recently with a little bit of prodding from Apple. Thanks to Apple’s iPhone, which debuted in the United States on June 29th, 2007, more companies have found themselves competing against Blackberry and Palm.

The PalmOs and the Blackberry was perhaps two of the most commonly used Smartphones in the business, but thanks to some prodding by Apple’s iPhone, the other companies are jumping in to produce a Smartphone. They want to keep their customers and be able to offer them the latest technology in competition with the Blackberry and the iPhone. Do you still have questions about whether a Smartphone is right for your personal and business needs?

What can you expect from a Smartphone? You can expect PC software such as Outlook, Word and even Excel as applications. This means that you can open and edit documents while on the go. That is a huge plus factor over earlier models of phones and PDAs. Most new Smartphones, like the iPhone, have added music players, text messaging, cameras and even voice recorders, as a way to entice new customers into making the jump from Apple to other manufacturers, such as Nokia and Motorola.

If you find yourself in the market for a Smartphone, then you absolutely cannot go wrong with the iPhone; however, keep in mind the other major players in the industry. You may not pay as much as you would for the iPhone, but you still get the same capabilities. The iPhone still has a hefty price tag of $399 and new Smartphones can be purchased for less with a new contract from a cellular provider.

The iPhone is an expensive piece of technology that you may find works to your advantage. It does have a lot of great capabilities, but there still is the hefty price tag attached to it. How expensive? Try a whopping $399 that does not include any discounts. If you are in the market and have decided to purchase a Smartphone or any PDA for that matter, then the best thing you can do is shop around. You may be able to find a great one by signing up with a cellular provider that can offer you a discount in exchange for a new contract.
