Java 32 (AKA SciPhone) - Why This New Shake and Tilt IClone May Be the Best Mini Model Yet

In the world of iPhone clones, consumers love to debate which model works the best, and which feature no phone should be without. Most are very passionate about their stance in this debate. The truth is, there is no right answer here. There's only the right phone for each individual. One size does not fit all, but luckily, there are many different models from which to choose. For folks who are looking for a sleek, Fast performing shake and tilt model with the latest version of Java, the SciPhone just might be it.

Shake and tilt is among the most widely debated iPhone clone features. Frankly, you either love it or you don't much see the need for it. I'm of the camp who finds it very useful because there's no fumbling around or scrolling involved. You just shake the phone when you want to advance songs or media. Likewise, you only need to tilt the phone when you want to take the picture to wide screen.

Examples of these shake to the music phones are the HiPhone i32, the CECT A380i, A88, and the A8+.

The SciPhone is among the newer of these models. It is known my many names, including Y32, 168 / i68 and the "mini HiPhone." It differs a bit from its predecessors in a few ways. First, it's thinner, smaller, and a good bit sleeker. It also now has an e-book reader. However, the addition that is getting the most attention is the latest version of Java. This addition opens up a whole new realm or productivity and gaming possibilities, including MSN, Office, and PowerPoint, to name only a few.

This allows you to read, edit, and manipulate docuMents away from your desk. It gives you productivity tools almost comparable the Blackberry. But, the availability of cool games can make it difficult to actually get down to work and use these tools. This is my own experience and flaw, though, and not the phone's.

This java mobile still has all of the smart phone specifications that you would expect, including: a generous 3.2 inch finger touch interface; dual sim slots for two numbers or plans; slide unlock so that you can use whichever carrier you wish; a 1.3 mega pixel camera which also serves as a webcam; Bluetooth 2.0; full MP3 / MP4 capabilities; web browsing, emailing and messaging via GPRS and WAP 2.0; and 2GB of expandable memory.

The smaller size and number of features does not slow this model down any. It's very Fast and I love the e-book reader even though I thought I would never use it. I am finally getting around to reading the free reports / e-books I always download but never read.

The SciPhone still has the loud import Speakers that are crisp and sharp. Initially, I wished for an upgrade to the 1.3 MP camera, but I'm surprised at the quality of the photos. Since this model starts at only about 0 and the price is falling, this phone is a no brainer if you like the smaller size.

Is The Jabra Bt800 Bluetooth Headset For Cell Phones Any Good?

This highly anticipated Bluetooth headset has some head turning features. When we heard about the new features of the jabra bt800 we just couldn't wait to try this one out for ourselves. You first notice an elegant silver and black finish and a blue lit Lcd screen. A new feature that we haven't seen before is the caller ID display which is located on the inside of the device to keep others around you from reading it when you are on a call.

The mini Lcd screen gives you the ability to see who is calling and be able to cycle through recently received calls. Although you can use this feature to call back the last number that you received, you cannot check your phonebook or call back old number in your call log. The caller ID feature works flawlessly even when tested at the full 30 feet Bluetooth maxes out at. Having a call display feature on the Bluetooth head set really frees yourself from your cell phone.

PAiring is somewhat of a taunting task. Jabra states in the manual the primary way of pAiring the handset to a Bluetooth cell phone is with a tiny port near the multifunction button. While the primary pAiring method works fine you have to use a styles to press the tiny port, and to carry it with you at all times is absurd. There is a second way to pair the device with the jabra Bluetooth Menu.

As you may have noticed this with jabra Bluetooth head sets that this is a lot different from the BT250 behind the ear style. Jabra has gone back to the traditional design of sitting over the ear. The design the jabra bt800 uses is very comfortable and worked fine while doing very active activities, such as jogging or biking.

Sound quality was excellent. Inbound sounds were sharp and crisp and the people on the other end of the conversation reported to hear us very clearly.
