Understanding Cell Phone Memory Card Terminology

2008-12-22T08:54:00.000-08:00

Buying a memory card for your unlocked cell phone can be frustrating, especially if you don't understand the terminology. From gigabytes to Micro SD.. what does all this stuff mean and how can you make sure you are getting what you need?

The first step to understanding cell phone memory cards is understanding what everything means. Here's a quick look at the terminology:

MB: The megabyte is a term representing the amount of storage memory card has. Today, most memory cards needed today should have at least 1 gigabyte (see below) of storage. However, if you don't need that much space, megabytes will do and will cost less. A megabyte is equal to 1,048,576 bytes.

GB: GB stands for gigabyte and just like megabyte, it is a measure of disk space. Basically you should know that the larger the gigabytes the more space you have and the more expensive the memory card will be. 1 gigabyte is equal to 1,024 megabytes.

microSD: microSD is a special format specifically for removable flash memory cards. Basically if you are purchasing a memory card it should say mircroSD or microSDHC (see below). The SD stands for Secure Digital.

microSDHC: microSDHC cards are Secure Digital High-Capacity cards are a newer version of flash memory cards. SDHC have a minimum capacity of 4GB but unfortunately are not compatible with all devices.

Okay, now that you know the terms, let’s put it all together. When purchasing a memory card for your cell phone online you will see something like this Kingston 4GB Micro SD Memory Card from VibeCellular below. Kingston represents the brand, 4 GB represents the storage, and Micro SD represents the type or format of flash memory.

Now it all makes sense! So remember for all your cell phone accessories visit http://www.vibecellular.com/. Vibe cellular has the biggest brand names at the lowest prices – all ready to ship right to your door.

Nokia is known for releasing innovative and jaw dropping designs complemented by user friendliness and amazing technical specifications. One device that beats the competition hands down is the Nokia N810 Portable Internet Tablet.

Surprisingly, even from looking at the above picture, the Nokia N810 Portable Internet Tablet is no larger than your iPod. The device plays music, video, and stores photos while interacting with the consumer through a 4 inch touch screen and the coveted sliding keyboard.

Using WiFi, you can do just about anything with this device including sending email, getting directions, browsing the internet, instant messaging, and streaming mp3 and videos. My favorite feature of the phone is the fact that it works with my favorite applications including having a Mozilla browser and being compatible with Skype, Google Talk, and Gizmo. Still, our customers can say it better than we can... here are some of the reviews:

"This is a very nice product for quick Internet access when you're away from a computer. I leave it on all the time, and the battery lasts 2-3 days without needing to be re-charged, and it's easy to carry around (much easier than a laptop) and always handy when I need it."

"just to give you an idea on how awesome the nokia n810 im writing the review from it. its preloaded with lots of google apps so anyone with a gmail account i highly recemend the product. may people complained about the keys on the keyboard but after i got it i didnt get why, my cell phones keys are way smaller. well that about it its a great gizmo."

The Motorola L7, Not Just Another Pink Phone

2008-12-11T09:24:00.000-08:00

One sale now at Vibe Cellular is a Motorola L7 Pink GSM Quadband Phone, unlocked of course! Pink cell phones have given women techies grief for a long time because they look pretty but have no features.

However, the Motorola L7 Pink GSM quadband Phone, isn't just another pink phone, it’s actually packed with some pretty cool features. For starters, it’s one of the thinnest Motorola phones around measuring only 11.5 mm thick from front to back. But don't let the size fool you, it has a VGA camera, a color display and microSD memory card support. So you can enjoy a colorful view as you take digital pictures and store them with ease.

Another feature is that the Motorola L7 also features an e-mail client. E-mail clients are a must have for today's phone, unfortunately they are often not included in many fashion phones today. Not only does the Motorola L feature an email client but also has Java games and WAP 2.0 for surfing the web.

One of my all time favorite features of the phone is not the Bluetooth capabilities, but the fact that the Motorola L7 is actually iTunes friendly, so you can chill and listen to music without struggling with uploading programs. Speaking of syncing, the Motorola L7 can be synced with your computer, office laptop, or a Bluetooth enabled device.

Messaging is also an important feature. A lot of phones, including the iPhone have stopped allowing MMS services... they just want you to use email. However, sometimes you want to send a picture or video quickly without having to email it. The Motorola L7 is MMS and SMS compatible and comes with a T9 dictionary to help you with those misspelled words.

Other features of the Motorola L7 include an integrated speaker phone, miniUSB, EDGE, GPRS, 5 MB memory, 140 hour talk time, and internal antenna.

Where Did You Get That Cell Phone?

2008-12-08T00:00:00.000-08:00

This is a story of someone who has no idea what Vibe Cellular is or what an unlocked cell phone is. No one was hurt in the typing of this story, and no cell phones were damaged. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll finally get an answer to that question....

"Where did you get that cell phone?"

You know who we are talking about; that guy who not only has the latest cell phone, but has a cell phone that you wouldn't even know where to buy it from. We are talking about a cell phone whose manual doesn't even come in English, a cell phone that makes people stop and drool, a cell phone that make people whisper "what is that" and "what provider is that under".

However, the most frustrating part is that you just bought what you thought was the best cell phone on earth. You stood in line for 3 days in the snow and set up camp just to hopefully buy one, you paid hundreds of dollars, signed your life away in contracts, and even kissed it a few times. And guess what, he still out does you, he still has a phone that seems better than yours and when you ask him…

“Where did you get that cell phone?”

He says, "oh, it's an inside thing".

Frustrated, you run screaming and crying all the way home. As you sit in the living room you decide that is time for you to have the best cell phone in the room. So you call into work and take off all of your vacation time, you go to the store and stock up on a month of groceries and you make camp in front of your computer to search for the answer to your question..

"Where did he get that cell phone?".

You start with all the major providers and search every phone offered and you find nothing. You search every eBay listing that has anything to do with cell phones and a week later, nothing. You search Google, Yahoo, MSN, anything and you come up empty. Right before you are about to end your search, you see something out of the corner of your eye…"unlocked cell phones". Your heart pounds and you find your way to Vibe Cellular.com and realize that you have found the answer to your question...

"Where did you get that cell phone?"

Discount unlocked cell phone tips for parents

2008-09-24T16:56:00.000-07:00

So you saved a bunch of money and bought your child a discount unlocked cell phone? Good for you! Now it’s time to make sure that all those savings are not eaten up immediately by the size of your kid’s cell phone bill. The following are some proactive tips to help your kids use their cell phone wisely and safely!

1. Lay the ground rules. From the moment your hand over your child’s activated unlocked cell phone, it is extremely important to set the rules regarding how they will use the device. Experts agree that setting time limits on phone use as well as who you kids can call make for better, wiser use of the phone.

2. Teach the do’s and don’ts of text messaging. Even if you’ve never done it, text messaging is a big part of your kid’s social life. Explain to them that other people may see what they are texting – so never say anything hurtful or use inappropriate language in the text.

3. Know your child’s password. Parents should always know what their child’s phone passwords are. Help them set up the passwords, and check in from time to time to make sure that they haven’t been changed.

4. Review the monthly bill. Spend a little extra time reviewing your monthly cell phone statements. Review every call your child makes or receives and stay on the lookout for strange numbers and of course, excessive talk time.

5. Watch the Internet. Because many cell phones now come equipped will Internet access capabilities, it is important to remind your kids that the same rules apply for their phone as their laptop or desktop computers at home. That means no inappropriate sites, and heavy caution used when visiting chat rooms.

6. Program all emergency numbers. Make sure that your child has all relevant emergency contact phone numbers on their cell phone. That means your home, work and cell numbers – as well as of other relatives or family friends who can help in a crisis.

7. Driving and cell phone use. Tell your children that they should NEVER use their cell phone while driving. Research has found that a large proportion of the traffic accidents where cell phone use is a factor involved teenage drivers.

8. Keep the cell phone safe. Although the discount unlocked cell phone you purchased for your child was a great deal, it is still a valuable piece of equipment and needs to be protected accordingly. Explain to your kids that they should never keep their cell phone out in plain view – and always keep it in their purse, backpack or pocket.

By following these simple rules for cell phone use, parents and kids will enjoy a healthier relationship with their new discount unlocked cell phone for years to come.

Five cell phone functions that really do make your life easier

2008-09-22T18:10:00.000-07:00

Remember when speed dial was the most convenient function to be found on your cell phone? Granted, it was pretty cool for its day, but the modern cell phone has so far eclipsed that era that comparing the two is rather unfair. Today’s cell phones are more of a mini-computer than simple talking device.

The following represent the five cell phone features which you shouldn’t be without:

1. Web and email access. Only a few short years ago, you had to wait until you got back home or to the office before you could send an email or browse the web. No more! Fully function web browsers and email software is standard in most current high-end cell phones.

2. Digital cameras. Phone-based digital cameras have given us more power to capture the special moments in our lives – not to mention create the world of the amateur paparazzi. Digital cameras can now be found in most cell phones.

3. Music. More and more cell phones are taking the lead of the iPhone and giving users a chance to download and play music right from their phone. Combining the MP3 player and the cell phone has created untold levels of convenience for music lovers of all ages.

4. GPS. Incredibly, phones are now coming equipped with real-time GPS. As a result, whether we are in the car or walking down the street, we can find our way with ease. Men and women (well, mostly men) may never have to stop and ask for directions again.

5. Two way communication. With two-way communication devices, parents can stay better in touch with kids, and employers can maintain close contact with their workers out in the field. It is another industrial application that has been slimmed down for convenient use in consumer cell phones.

Proper cell phone etiquette

2008-09-10T05:28:00.000-07:00

You know who you are. You are the one who attracts dirty looks like a magnet thanks to your poor cell phone etiquette. Just because you plunked down hard earned cash for that fancy new cell phone does not give you the right to disregard your fellow man! But rejoice -- there is hope. Simply follow the rules below and you’ll begin your journey towards being a gentler, kinder cell phone user.

Tips for proper cell phone etiquette:

Don’t talk in restaurants – Let your fellow diners enjoy their club sandwiches in peace for goodness sake! If you have to take a call when you are at a nice restaurant (or even a Chili’s for that matter) please excuse yourself and step outside.

Don’t talk while driving – While many states have passed hands-free only laws for auto cell phone use, that doesn’t mean talking on the phone while driving is a good idea. Remember, the only thing you should be doing while moving down the road is focusing on staying safe and protecting your fellow drivers.

Keep it down – Just because your conversation partner is in a bad cell doesn’t give you the right to shout into your phone and deafen those around you. Speak in normal tones when other people are in the general vicinity.

Don’t hold up the line – If you are in the checkout line at a store, your transaction should take precedence over your cell phone conversation. Buy what you’ve got to buy, and then continue talking when you are out on the street. The folks waiting patiently in the back of the line will thank you.

Pay attention to your kids – We don’t want to tell you how to be a good parent, but when you are engaged in special, one-on-one time with your children, try to turn the cell phone off for a few hours. Kids are smarter than you think, and when they see mom or dad constantly talking on the phone, texting or sending emails, it is going to make them feel less important! Remember, there’s almost nothing that can’t wait for a little while – and your kids are only young once.

California joins growing list of states with hands free cell phone law

2008-09-08T09:56:00.000-07:00

As of July 1, 2008 motorists in California (and there a LOT of them!) are required to use a hands free device when using cell phones in their cars. California joins the growing list of states that require drivers to ditch their handsets in favor of Bluetooth devices and speakerphones.

As of this writing, the states requiring hands free cell phone use for all drivers are:

• California
• Connecticut
• District of Columbia
• New Jersey
• New York
• Washington

According to California government officials, the law could save as many as 300 lives each year. The law comes in response to numerous traffic accidents and fatalities linked to careless cell phone use that distracts the individual while driving.
Individuals who are unsure of how to make the switch will be comforted by the fact that

Bluetooth headsets are all highly reliable, easy to use devices which actually enhance the talk experience. There are several high end models that run upwards of $100, but most can purchased for $40 or less.

Almost any standard cell phone released in the past 2-3 years comes up equipped with Bluetooth functionality.
