Which are your favorite sites for shopping online?
Amazon is my favorite because they really know how to do customer satisfaction and convenience.
Show us a gadget you can't live without.
My Motorola Razr keeps me connected via voice, SMS and moblogging. I'd be lost without the convenience of the camera, texting/email, calendar and phone book!
Over a million iPhones have been sold. Have you: bought one, considered it, or decided it's not for you?
I would love an iPhone but hate having AT&T as my cell carrier. No thank you!
Been there.
Done that.
Enough.
Show us a gadget that's on your wish list.
What's the greatest video game console on the market? Do you own it or is it on your wish list?
After comparing the graphics and the games offered I have to stick with the XBox 360. I don't own one, I have the original XBox and it's proved a great game console. Sony made huge mis-steps with the PS3 and I doubt they'll recover ground. Perhaps, the PS4?
For years I had a cell phone from 1995 that didn't do SMS, have a camera, have a vibration option, and was monochrome. Seriously, I upgraded to the Razor in May 2006.
Now I can SMS, take photos (albeit, not clear ones), set the phone on vibration so as not to disturb others when in the theater and it's in color. I believe Verizon even offers web access for an additional charge.
My primary reason for a cell phone is for an emergency. I have a plain vanilla plan that allows me 250 minutes monthly and I never exceed my minutes. I'm lucky if I have 30 minutes talk time per month. Seriously.
I thought the most used feature of the new cell would be the camera, since I've always carried a digital camera with me. Boy, was I wrong.
I use SMS a lot. It has made a difference in the quality of my relationship with friends and coworkers. We maintain contact after work hours and on weekends, somthing that had not happened before. It seems the ease and unobtrusiveness of SMS makes us feel free to connect without feeling that we're intruding as with a voice call.
I do use the camera, especially when I want to post to this blog. My standard digital camera requires me to first download my photos to a computer, then upload them to the site. By then hours may have passed! Whereas with one press of the button, the camera phone photos are emailed here - instantaneous, sweet and easy!
I love the ease with which I can upload photos to this blog, the VOX team did a fantastic job! Other blogs I've tried don't have photo uploads from camphones this easy and seamless. Okay, I'm off track...
I didn't realize what a relationship enhancement a new cell phone would be. It's technology that helps me stay connected and reinforce my relationships. I should have upgraded years ago!
