Motorola F3 - Simplicity at best

Advantages: Simple, slim, light, smart-looking, easy-to-use, cheap and durable!
Disadvantages: SMS can be hard to deal with, alarm clock only works when phone is on

...When technology goes wild and even faster than people would like or appreciate, a "return to the origins" could easily lead to a success. I must say I'm not a great fan of modern mobile phones with hundreds of functions that you will never ever use (ok the camera on the phone may be useful sometimes but I have my doubts about the rest). I don't play videogames, videochat, download music or watch films on the mobile and neither I want to. Even more, the famous idea of sending odour-messages being now not so far from the market will alienate even more most of the average mobile users. Motorola had a great idea. A mobile phone with the most basic functions you can get and for the cheapest price ever seen! The Motorola F3 (o Motofone) is the answer to the increasingly estranging mobile phone technology. Simple, slim, light, smart...

Asus after Compaq (6 months later)

Advantages: reliable, robust, the right features and configuration
Disadvantages: Asus not well-known for laptops

...Sep 2006: My previous laptop was a Compaq Evo N1050v of 3 years. It eventually needed replacing and after a long research period, I made up my mind to go for this Asus F3JA. Specifications: CPU: Intel Centrino Duo T2250 1.73GHz Display: 15.4 inch WXGA (Colour Shine) Hard Disk: 100GB SATA (5400 rpm) Memory: 1024 MB (2x512 MB) DDRII SDRAM Optical Disk Drive: DVD Super Multi Double Layer Video Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 256MB(512MB HyperMemory) Wireless: 802.11a/b/g Operating System: Windows XP Pro Built-in Camera: 1.3M pixels Bluetooth Price: £869 incl VAT Including: Asus laptop case, optical mouse and 128MB memory stick Reseller: nexus13.com Size: A 15.4 inch laptop is definitely more comfortable to use than a 15 inch one. Even though the extra width of the screen can only be useful for some purposes...

Review of ASUS F3JA AP024P

Motorola Motofone F3

Advantages: Slim design, good power consumption, easy to read screen
Disadvantages: Basic menu system

...The Motorola Motofone F3 is a very basic mobile, allowing only calls and SMS texts only, so ideal for anyone who needs a simple phone, or giving your child their first phone. The phone is very compact, measuring only 114mm x 47mm x 9mm with a good layout of keys. The phone has been designed to be as simple as possible, to the extent that you get voice prompts to help you navigate through the menu. (This voice prompt can be turned off) The menu allows you to either write texts, read texts, change the ringing tone, set alarms and the date/time. There is also a phone book to allow you to store numbers. The phone uses "electronic paper" instead of the usual LCD screen, so eveything is black and white. The screen is only shows 2 lines (not including the menu icons) and the text is 6 characters across. This means that it is very easy...
