Question
I am planning to purchase a cell phone within the next few months. I don’t know much about cell phones.. and I just came back from CES and saw some amazing cell phones. Could anyone tell me out of these three phones, which one is the best? Or describe the differences? (besides companies and how they look like)
LG Chocolate, Samsung SGH E900, Samsung SCH -u510
Answered by Shboby
I have the LG 8300 and it is fabulous! It is the best phone I have ever owned! I’ve had samsung phone and, in my opinion, they are crapy!

The 8300 allows you to take pictures, video and mp3s. It has great sound and has great battery length!

In my opinion, LG phones are the best and most user friendly phones around!

If you have to choose one of those three choose the LG Chocolate!

Answered by synjhindb
LG chocolate, great look, not features. E900, not bad. Go for it. the U510, not worth it.
Answered by nonyobuziness
don’t get the chocolate. thats all i’m telling you. it scratches easily. unless you want to put it in a cover. the cover that verizon gives looks cheap and ugly. also, the touchpad is the most annoying thing ever. you will want to throw it because the touch things is the worst. The keypad is horrible. Unless you have baby fingers, you don’t want to push the buttons. they are so small and hard to press.

Alright, personal experience about the LG chocolate!!!
It looks great, but you know the buttons that sense your touch…they are just too delicate, and when you are talking on your phone your cheek can sometimes be touching the buttons and pressing them, that gets annoying. Also if you place a call with the phone open then want to use it closed the call will end, you can not even change that setting so that the call will end when you press end. Also other buttons get pressed when you try to press another button then you get delayed because it is opening another application. Also the screen is very sensitive, it can scratch easily so you will be buying those screen protectors and that will just add more expenses for you…
I do like LG as a brand although the chocolate is NOT a great phone

The Samsung SGH E900: http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/samsung_sgh-e900_trandy_phone.html
Samsung SCH-u510:

Good luck

Question
In what State of the US, is it Illegal to use Cell Phones While driving ??

How many of you use the Hands Free Cell Phone while driving ?

Those of you who drive not using the Hands Free Cell Phone, do you find it takes away from your concentration from driving and avoiding an accident ?

What % ( percentage ) , do you think Cell Phones cause Auto Accidents ??

Thank You

Answered by fire4511
I do not use a hands free phone, but i do use the phone when driving regularly.

It does not effect my driving at all. I also can walk and chew gum at the same time.

Cell phones do not cause accidents. Failure to control the vehicle causes collisions.

Answered by Gina
I am not sure, but I know that in California I believe it may become a law soon that people cannot use a cell phone while driving. I hope so, have you ever driven behind someone who was on a cell phone? They drive too slow! What is so important that they cannot wait?
Answered by xashuhleeeexxx
you have to be 19 or over in most states. hands free is better, its like youre talking to someone i the car. i actually drive alot better when im on the phone because i know i need to concentrate more. i dont think people talking on phones cause accidents, its like if they drop it or arent paying attention
Answered by Fred C
People who believe using a cell phone while driving is just basic multi-tasking and doesn’t affect their driving are sadly deluded. Every person who talks on a cell while behind the wheel should be forced to watch a video of him/her self. It absorbs enough of your attention that your reactions, unbeknownst to you, are slowed. It only takes a fraction of a second delay at 60 mph to kill or be killed. We will never know what percentage of accidents are caused by cell phone use, but you can call any police force you want, and find traffic officers that have attended accident scenes and found cell phones on the floor, TURNED ON, and sometimes STILL CONNECTED! Nobody sees the driver throw it there, but there is no other explanation. I will not use the cell phone in traffic, or on the highway, except in emergency. Twice I have used it while driving to call police.
Answered by Michael M
Jersey had a hand free law but not really enforced.
I do not know the answer to your question, but it is getting dangerous out there. too many people talk and not concentrate on the driving.
Question
i have an old phone, the one i got when i first signed on to t-mobile. i want a new phone and apparently i can only get one if i upgrade. does anyone know of certain stores that sell cell phones? a store that has them for a lower value. i want a pink razor but i dont want it for $ 200…i mean all you really have to do is switch the little chip in the back and your set to go? so are there stores out there that sell cell phones for lower prices? not used though, new, or atleast in fairly new condition…thanks!
Answered by Joe M
Your best bet is Ebay. I took over my fathers cell phone contract to keep him from paying early termination fees and he had lost the phone to it. I bought a decent phone to use until the contract renewed and was very happy with it. Doing a qucik search showed many just like you are looking for.

http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?ht=1&from=R4&satitle=t-mobile+razr&sacat=15032%26catref%3DC6

Hope that helps.

I noticed you specified new. Not many places to buy a new phone without a contract or ridiculous price. Descriptions are generally pretty decent on Ebay. Also, if you buy one you can take it in to your local T-Mobile store and they should program it to work with your number.

Answered by Blonde_Gurlll
Im pretty sure they sell cell phones at Wal-Mart……….
Question
I am gettting a new cell phone and the company is Sprint
does Sprint sell Sidekicks? Or r there any other cool phones that they sell. Please help!!
Thanx!
Answered by Angel K
Sprint does not sell sidekicks. Only T-mobile sells sidekicks. Also, a sidekick would not work on Sprint.

Sprint has the LG Rumor, which is a pretty cool phone. It has a full keyboard. The Samsung A640 is a good phone as well.

Question

Answered by dil
I have seen a Nokia future concept of wearing the Phone on your wrist. it’s just like a write watch felxible. so it has the watch, Mobile phone, Internet, email faclity, PDA options etc. i think in another couple of years this will be the future

If you are talking about a 10 years time the cell phone may go smaller and smaller then it will be implanted to the user. may be inside the head or inside alms or what ever.

in another 20 – 30 years time the helogram concept will be introduced where your image will be projected some where else you wanna talk and you can virtuall have a one on one discussion with them

in another 50 years time ppl won’t need phones coz the concept of apperation will be introduced where you just disappear from the place now you are nand appear at the place you wanna meet and talk with some one

    I saw this question last night and was hesitating if I even wanted to try and tackle it. Partially because you ask 4 questions and it would tale alot of work and be a LONG answer, and partially because my stance on this subject is not the popular one. Anyway, here goes…

    Question 1…

    Nearly 15 states have either enacted or are considering enacting cell phone legislation of some sort.

    For example, Arizona prohibits bus drivers from using a cell phone while operating a bus. Florida has a specific law concerning cell phones with head sets, stipulating that the head set allow outside sounds to be heard through at least one ear. New Jersey does not allow drivers under age 21 with a learner’s permit to use a cell phone while driving. New York’s law, enacted in 2001, has been the most extensive. This state forbids drivers from talking on hand-held cell phones while operating a vehicle, despite numerous studies that indicate the risks really aren’t any different from hand-held phones and hands-free phones. Most recently going into effect, California will also ban the use of non hands-free cell phones from inside a moving vehicle starting July 1st, 2007.

    (Excellent Article BTW)

    Question 2…

    I couldn’t tell if you meant for this to be a poll or based on published statistics. I myself do not use a hands free device although I used to when I had my first car phone nearly 15 years ago which was a suitcase sized unit installed under my seat.

    I would think it’s safe to say without researching that a large majority of cell phone users do NOT use hands-free devices, but the percentage of users is increasing either because of legislation, personal preference, or both.

    Question 3…

    Like I stated, I have used hands free devices in the past and I presently do not use them. I have tried the newer ones, but wasn’t impressed. Many many reports are showing that any risks that can come from ‘in-the-car’ cell phone use are not necessarily reduced by the use of a hands-free device. Despite these reports, there is still a push to enact laws making this requirement. I liken this to the push to add seatbelts in large school buses, even though there are numerous studies that show there is no real safety improvement and could even make things more dangerous for the kids, but that’s another topic.

    Question 4…

    Here’s where I know few will agree with me.

    0%.

    Accidents are caused by the driver breaking existing safety laws. Lane violation, running a light/stop-sign, speeding, reckless operation, etc. etc. I might agree that the driver may have allowed himself or herself to be distracted and that was a contributing factor, but the cause of the accident would be breaking another law. Distractions can happen from 100′s of different sources including passengers and distractions from outside the vehicle. Want an interesting fact? Most distractions occur from outside the vehicle! A sign that grabs your attention, a person on the side of the street, focusing too long on another vehicle… it’s true!… check it out…
    http://www.drivers.com/article/423
    (Check out the chart showing distractions… cell phones are like less than 2%!)
    According to that study, the LEADING cause of distractions from inside the vehicle? Adjusting the radio! Where’s the push to ban radios?

    To summarize, I have been using cellular communications from inside my cars for nearly 20 years. I wreck all the time! JK… I have (knock on wood) never been involved in an accident on the road in well over a million miles. (I have backed large trucks into a few things in parking lots and loading areas before, but I sure wasn’t ‘on the phone’.) I travel all over my state on business and the cell phone has allowed me to stay productive and in-touch with my customers. That being said, if I am in the city, in heavy traffic, or in any other situation where I feel the cell phone could be a problem, I hang up or tell the other person to wait a minute or two. Just as I’d expect that passengers would shut-up while a driver is dealing with the same.

    Consider taking my cell phone poll…
