Ericsson HPB 10 Hands-free

* The old hands free CARK Kit . .

Advantages: Very good sound reproduction, always set up ready for use.
Disadvantages: Needs an external anrenna, plus fitting. Dated nowadays.

, (as are the phones is it made for) but the principle is brilliant, you have a phone holder that gives genuine hands free operation, with sound that is virtually as good as a radio. Your own voice is picked up and transmitted with the same clarity. The holder itself is very good, if a little large by modern standards, it holds the phone safely and securely, whilst recharging the phone battery. There is no vibration, and the phone will not fly out of the holder at level crossings. I do realise that a lot of bluetooth headsets are replacing this type of kit nowadays, and they are very clear, but these kits do have their merits. The speaker is mounted wherever you want it, and so the sound comes equally to both ears, unlike the bluetooth that goes in one ear only. The microphone is equally good, being able to pick up sound of very good ...

Review of Nokia CARK 91 Hands-free kit

Sony Ericsson K800i... UPDATED 10/01/07!!!

Advantages: SUPERB 3 MEGA PIXEL CAMERA, MP3 PLAYER AND LOTS MORE!!!
Disadvantages: THAT BLOODY PIECE OF SH*T ANNOYING INTERNET BUTTON!!!

. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL QUALITY The call quality is very good on the K800i and is very crisp and clear. Call profiles can also be changed to suit the environment that you are in. This can include the following profiles: Normal, Meeting, In car, Outdoors, Handsfree, Home and Office. The hands free kit/headphones that came with the handset give very clear sound for calls and listening to the MP3 player or radio. Having had different Sony Ericsson headphones with the W800i though, I found these ones to be bigger and less comfortable in the ears as they kept falling out all the time! However, the do come with sponge covers for each earpiece which so far has removed this problem considerably. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY All in all, Sony Ericsson have produced a reliable, good all ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

The SUPERB Samsung NC10

Advantages: Portability, quality, style, etc etc! Love It.
Disadvantages: Battery does make unit tilt backwards a bit (but not really a negative!)

I have owned this fantastic netbook for 9 months now and I take it with me everywhere. I absolutely love it! I bought it solely for internet access as I like the odd bet when I'm out and about (!) so I can only really comment on this type of usage. Where shall I begin. Well the NC10 looks gorgeous, mine is the glossy black colour and it opens up to a more than generous keyboard which is brilliant for those emails and the keys are perfectly responsive. Then there is the large 10" screen with fabulous brightness and clarity. Perfect size. Bought a nice protective pouch to keep the unit in and then just pick up and go! Battery life is outstanding. I get easily six hours internet access on one charge. The other great point is that the NC10 only takes a minute to boot up and then you're online! BRILLIANT product. LOVE IT! My favourite ...
