Well, we have come across a few in our time. And, these are the best - and you can wash them. The ultra high-clarity plastic that they're manufactured from protects your screen like a dream, and we've even been able to increase the thickness without impairing screen brightness or clarity. Proporta realise that sometimes applying screen protectors can be a bit fiddly, so each kit contains a screen cleaning cloth and an application card to make perfect-fitting quick and easy.

...I was used to Palm PDAs and used them for years, changing the model every two years. But that meant my mobile phone was another piece to lug along.
QTEK offers both tri band phone as well as Windows programs, adapted Office Suite, including Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint.
The PDA is very easy to use for Windows experienced users, drop down menus, running more than one program at a time. Ecxellent RAM memory plus the possibility to add extra memory with the SD card slot.
Synching with a desk top is easier than synhing with Palm.
Screen is sharp even on sunny days.
It took some getting used to when talking on the phone and needing to write down an appointment. But a Bluetooth ear device will solve that.
Will buy another QTEK as soon as another model comes out....

Advantages: Truly multi-functional Disadvantages: Making quick calls... i'll explain below!
...Well, i've had my Qtek S100 for just over a year now so i feel qualified enough to review it! First off you will see this smartphone under many names, not just the Qtek S100 but the HTC Magician amoungst many, many others. A point of interest if you are thinking of buying one is that, although they are essentially the same product they do vary in price between the brands, with Qtek being the cheapest.
I'll start with funtionality -
It acts as a phone, a pda, a divice for internet access, a camera and an MP3 player (i'm sure ive missed something out!). You'd have thought that something that does all of these things is spreading itself too thin and will not provide a very good all round service, well, you'd be wrong. It is simply excellent in all of it's functions.
The phone - can be a bit of a pain to dail in numbers, have to get out...

Personally, I find that most of the time there isn’t a great deal to say about microphones, however I thought it was worth reviewing these Behringers.
The so called industry standard seems to be the SHURE SM58 and as I use both types, I’ll more
