Review of Samsung NC10

I be Jack Sparrow, welcome aboard the black pearl!

Advantages: enjoyable,quite humourous and great cast
Disadvantages: none that I can think of

...part of the film goes on to show Elizabeth grown up as a young woman and she wakes up from a nightmare. The story goes on to reveal that her father is trying to get her married to a highflying guy called Norrington. It’s one of those classic things where the father/mother wants their daughter to marry a rich, successful man and the daughter doesn’t really have much say in the matter. Anyway Norrington’s plan to marry Elizabeth goes pear shaped when Jack Sparrow comes along. It turns out that Barbossa, captain of the black pearl, stole the ship from Jack and now Jack wants to get it back. He goes to Elizabeth’s town to steal a ship so that he can go and find the black pearl. He gets found out as a pirate though and he ends up saving Elizabeth’s life when she falls into the sea during a pretty funny scene...

Review of Pirates Of The Caribbean - The Curse Of The Black Pearl (DVD)

Not quite a Pearl, but certainly not a dud.

Advantages: A great phone. Does exactly what its meant to.
Disadvantages: Awful (and I mean truly awful) booklets and info. Setting up a nightmare

...Blackberry Pearl 8120 Not quite a Pearl, but certainly not a dud. ~ So just what is the Blackberry Pearl? ~ Today's phones are pretty much like mini computers, allowing you to call, text, take photographs, videos, listen to music, and record notes.... Just about everything you can think of. I will include the rigid specifications of this phone at the very end of this review since not everyone wants to read them all, but just wants to know - how does this phone perform? Apologies in advance, I've tried to keep this as short as possible - but somehow I just couldn't say all I've wanted to without going over my usual limits by some margin. If you're not interested in a long review, then I've just highlighted some points towards the very bottom which I hope can help. ~ So what can we do? ~ This phone has a lot of features. I'll try...

Review of BlackBerry Pearl 8120

Don't be scared, it's only a Blackberry Pearl

Advantages: instant emails, easy to use, slim
Disadvantages: camera, quality of the music played back

...As I'm going for Business advisor at work, thought I would make myself more familiar with the Blackberry family. I asked my boss if I would borrow the demo phone The Blackberry Pearl or 8100 for awhile so I could learn and mess around with it to figure out the settings and so on. To be honest, I've never liked Blackberry phones but have I changed my mind? Let's see. First of all, what are Blackberry's? Some people call them mobiles that can send emails, others call them PDAs, other just think they are a fancy mobile with a qwerty keypad. Blackberry's website states "A wireless email solution for mobile professionals." So why would some choose a Blackberry when they are so many phones on the market that do emails now and to some point, I agree but most phones have what we call pull email and the Blackberry uses push email. I hear you...

Review of BlackBerry Pearl 8100

Pirates of the Caribean: Curse of the Black Pearl

Advantages: Great film, Johnny Depp, Great music, Johnny Depp, Great special effects... Johnny Depp?
Disadvantages: Not a lot really...

...■The Movie■ Producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski bring you the thrilling tale of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is the first in the soon-to-be-completed trilogy about Captain Jack Sparrow, a rather quirky pirate who has recently escaped a deserted island and wants himself a ship. He wants to get revenge upon his mutineering crew and with just a pistol with a single bullet, he sets out. Captain Jack (Johnny Depp) finds himself in Port Royale and the story begins. A swashbuckling storyline full of little twists and turn as Jack is joined on his journey by William Turner (Orlando Bloom), an apprentice blacksmith out on a journey to find out about his past and looking for the girl of his dreams, Elizabeth Swan (Keira Knightly) who is already engaged to Commodore Norrington (Jack...

Review of Pirates Of The Caribbean - The Curse Of The Black Pearl (The Lost Disc) (Limited Edition) (DVD)

Eyeshadow, eyeliner and pearls

Advantages: Humorous, extremely watchable
Disadvantages: I really can't think of any

...When you think of a Disney movie, what image comes into your head? With me, it is cartoons and animation, so I was pleasantly surprised to discover that one of the summer blockbuster's was in fact made by Disney. 'Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl', to give it it's full title is named after the theme park ride. The film starts by introducing us to Governor Swann (Jonathan Pryce), whose young daughter Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) is on board his ship when they see a burning ship which has been under attack from the infamous Black Pearl, and against the advice of young wannabee Norrington (Jack Davenport), he agrees to save the boy and ensures he is put into safe care on land. Young actor of the moment Orlando Bloom plays the child, Will Turner, who is an ex pirates son, but only Elizabeth knows that as she took...

Blackberry Pearl: A Blackberry virgin's views

Advantages: Good Looking, Slim, Simple To Set Up, Single device for all communication!
Disadvantages: Camera not great, Not 3G so relatively slow web browsing

...which did all that my previous phone did (a K750i) plus the email functionality. Ideally I was looking for a 3G phone, but in the end I sacrificed this because the Pearl sounded (and looked) rather fancy... I was also ready for a change - there seemed to be a big PC/Apple Mac-type divide between Blackberry users and non-Blackberry users, so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Long story short, it still cost me (well, my company) £90 as part of the upgrade. I'm sure you will find plenty of operators offering it for free with nre contracts / upgrades. It also cost an extra £11 or so per month, for the data allowance. Not being in the know about these things, this may be a good or bad deal - perhaps some of you know better? So, I had the handset ordered and eagerly waited for its arrival. Out of the box, first impressions were...

Review of BlackBerry Pearl 8100

Blackberry Pearl 8100 Review - Great Smartphone!

Advantages: Blackberry functionality, great looking, features for both business and consumer use
Disadvantages: Interface is perhaps a little dated

...Research in Motion (RIM) have been around for almost ten years, creating fantastic corporate wireless devices like no other. Not surprising then, that in 2007, the number of Blackberry users reached 8 million and is continually on the rise. Originally aimed at large corporations with the Blackberry's appealing wireless email services and corporate functionality such as calendar, contacts and tasks synchronisation, Blackberry have now created a device which goes even further and offers a few more consumer friendly features. Aimed at both business users and consumers simultaneously, Blackberry have done a good job at being able to get the right balance between the two very different types of users. The Pearl is the first Blackberry device to feature multimedia features such as a built in camera with a flash, music and video playback...
