Techs & Trends

I was wondering what exactly WAP is. I am new to being online on a cellphone. Is there any way to get free wap and how do you do it?

I just bought the motorola v710 phone provider with verizon. I love the phone except for one thing. Is there any way to turn off the phone number when I turn on the phone. When I have the phone off then turn it on I get my greeting that I setup but I also noticed that my phone number appears then goes away . Is there anyway to disable the number from appearing. I tried to take off the greeting but it didn't help
Thanks

British design firm PDD announced today their concept "Helix" will be shown at the 3GSM world congress next week in Cannes. It looks just stunning. In an interview w/ Mobilemag.com, they said that by the end of 2006-07 this phone could have a 20 Gig microdrive w/ a 5 MP camera. The really cool thing about this design is the 180* hinged display that flips around when opening. So when the flip phone is closed the screen is automatically facing out and when you open it up it is facing in. OLED display too. the outside has dedicated MP3 player interface too. Check out the website.

I hope there exists adequate virus protection for the phones email, text messaging and web browsing.

I wonder if Ad-Aware type software can run on phones?

How do you get out -car kit- mode on an LG6000 camera phone. I called verizon and they couldn't figure it out. Please email me at sshipley@columbus.rr.com with answer. Thanks

I am looking of a new cell phone with bluetooth capability that I can use with my Sony vaio s260 notebook. From what I understand the LG pm-325 doesn't have a profile for this????
I currently have sprint service but I am willing the change.
Thanks for any advise you can offer.

Anyone know???

Hey, just a question here... Do Verizon and Sprint have any intention of switching to GSM? I think I've heard that they wont do it, but why?

I'm looking for a palm size Windows Mobile for Pocket PCs phone. About the size of a treo 650/600 . Dont matter witch carrier. I like the widows phone but they are to big. any help.

I was wondering if anyone knew how long it took to make a cell phone. I can't find it anywhere. I need a specific time. For any phone. It doesn't really matter at this point what manufacturer. Any information as to where I might find anything would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.

My store has an N-gage QD demonstration device left over from the HUGE standup display that we no longer keep in store. It's great to have around the store as a "passthetimeonslowdays" device.

My question is this: Is there a way to enable the normal functionality of this phone, or is it locked in demo mode forever? (being locked in demo mode effectively makes it useless since Cingular's discontinuing it soon) I have a co-worker who has an account, but no phone. We'd like for him to be able to use the N-gage instead of pulling phones from the inventory to use until his allpromoto prize comes in.

Does anyone know how to do this?

is there a way to trick the carriers and use a phone as a modem for a laptop or pda and circumvent the exuberant charges for net access, specifically GSM EDGE, or how do they know whether any net connection is tethered or just plain WAP directly from the phone??/ basically cingular offers unlimited Internet express access for $20- yet unlimited data access is $80, there must be a way people... there must be a way....

They have joined the Wimax forum, and are abandoning iDen. Seems like a logical choice to me, but isn't jumping to a 4G technology a little risky? 😳

I notice that on the Motorola mpx220 there is wireless internet, and on the Motorola mpx there is wireless internet AND wi-fi. Could someone explain the difference, and how those options would be important.

There are alot of phones out there with Windows OS. I'm wondering if there are any plans by any phone manufacturer and Apple to release a phone that has Mac OS?

I've heard of some iPhone, but from what I've heard and read, it's onyl supposed to incorporate iTunes. Anyone have any inside info on this? Thanks in advance!

I think it'd be pretty neat if there was a Bluetooth program for computers that when a call came in, it allowed the user to take the call through his computer, the computer acting as a speaker phone. Or like a wireless earpiece works. Is there such a thing?

If not, it'd be cool to have something like that. At least I think so.

Does anyone have a clue when we might see something like the Samsung Thor concept phone being released? I have been wanting a device like this for SOOO long. Have some pretty good design ideas for them as well. Wish i knew the right people. Could we maybe see something at the 3GSM or CTIA confrencees?

I am planning on switching from Sprint to either T-mobile or Cingular...and looking for a nice phone.

I narrowed it down to motorola A630 (t mobile) and Rajor V3(cingular)

Not sure if it's worth to spend around 300 buks to get a cool looking phone Rajor V3 or to get A630 with all the features and extra minutes and good service with tmobile...

any opinions on A360?? It's on sale at Amazon and you make 30 buks with one year service plan..

thanks
