Cellphones and PDAs

I just bought myself one of those cheap leather iPAQ cases. I wasn’t expecing much (it was only $10), but it’s actually very nice. Much better than paying the crazy money that some of the brand name designer cases cost. I’m happy!

I just bought myself a Sony Ericsson W200i – it’s about as cheap as you can get for a nice looking phone, plus it comes with Sony’s excellent built in MP3 Walkman. The MP3 sound quality is fantastic, and the included headphones have plenty of bass and clarity (they ARE Sony’s after all!). The W200i looks just as sexy as the more expensive models, and includes a 128 MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) card which is an added bonus – it can also use MP3s as ringtones. The VGA camera is ordinary, but at this price it’s basically a freebie – so I’m happy.

I can’t help thinking that the Motorola designer who created the Motorola Pebl was listening to a Creative Zen mp3 player at the time – they both have a very similar ‘river pebble’ design. The Motorola Pebl U6 has a smooth rounded clamshell design with an internal antenna, unique sliding hinge latch, and an etched keypad similar to the RAZR. Features include Bluetooth, quad-band GSM, a VGA camera with video capture, speaker-independent voice dialing, and email access. Very nice.

The new E-Ten Glofiish X500 is one of our favorite cellphones – it features Windows Mobile 6, QuadBand, GPRS/EDGE, GPS, a lovely VGA screen, Bluetooth, 2MP Camera, and WiFi! That’s a lot of tech for a very small device. Being QuadBand, the E-Ten Glofiish X500 will work in Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, New Zealand and Australia – which makes it ideal if you do a lot of traveling.

Anyone with an iPhone owes it to themselves to buy a decent set of headphones – and this is them! V-MODA’s Vibe Duo iPhone headphones feature a ‘hands-free’ microphone and have really comfortable soft silicone fittings, making them perfect for traveling – they little babies don’t hurt your ears like some of the cheaper iPhone headsets. They also work with all iPods too!
