Mobile Man — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 08:22:40 +0000

The future has certainly arrived with these value-packed, super powerful Skypephones! Calls to other Skype users are FREE, whether it is on their Skype mobile or their PC… WORLDWIDE. This free service is provided exclusively by 3 when you take out a contract; which is well-worth the commitment. I can’t help but think back to the days when calling country to country was not only a hassle, but also expensive. Thank goodness those days are long behind us now, and the Skypephone is changing mobile telephony forever!

Express your personal style by choosing a Skypephone in either white & blue, white & pink or classic black. Developed specifically to launch Skype as a mobile application rather than something you can only use when at your PC, it carries all the features you would expect from a modern mobile. You’ll enjoy its built-in 2.0 megapixel camera and music player.

Although this phone is a mere 86gm, it has a 16MB internal memory which is expandable to one full gig. Its compatibility with Windows Live Messenger is coming soon, and already has Google ready to go. If you’re on the move a lot, it’ll fit your lifestyle with connectivity through Bluetooth and a USB 2.0. Bluetooth allows you to slot into your headset, car-kit, etc., whilst the USB connection and lead makes transferring and saving music and pictures a very easy task. The twin-pack Skypephone is a tremendous value and you can keep in touch easily with friends, family or colleagues in a snap!

Mobile Man — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 08:12:59 +0000

A slick, candy bar design, the SE C902 will raise your expectations in what a mobile phone/digital camera can bring to the table. This powerful phone sports a 5.0 megapixel camera with a 16X zoom! Nice, indeed! With its Cybershot technology (which is unique to Sony Ericsson), this phone is the ideal companion for any trip where you’d prefer to leave your digital camera behind. The image quality is fantastic and so is the video calling feature – we loved it!

The expandable memory slot for micro M2 memory cards, and the built-in 160MB of memory allow for a mass of great quality photos and music. The sound quality on the music player is certainly up to par and the games are great entertainment when passing the time in a long queue.

Sony Ericsson W890i

Mobile Man — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 08:10:47 +0000

An essential travel buddy, the SE W890i is also a real beauty in its sparkling silver form. But don’t let its charming good looks fool you, this mobile is also brimming with power and functionality. For starters, it has an impressive 2-gigs of memory which speaks for itself, in terms of storage capacity.
During testing, we stored thousands of tracks of music on it, and with the Track ID service, it’s easy to skip through songs. Using the Senseme service within the phone, we also created a couple of playlists; ensuring the organization of the genre’ of music was in place, according to how we preferred them. The quality of sound on the stereo headset supplied with the W890i, and the ability to listen to radio as well, were really remarkable but most impressive was the sound quality on the inbuilt speaker from the Walkman®.

The 3.2 megapixel camera holds its own on the quality of shots taken when out and about.
Keeping in touch and informed online was also a breeze using the Internet, RSS feeds functionalities; and Windows Live Messenger really did save us some money on texts. Interfacing with this digital darling was also easy, as everything is intuitively at your fingertips and connects with Bluetooth, USB 2.0 and PC synchronisation. At a scant, 78gm of weight, this dynamic mobile is ready to go when you are!
