A Skype Phone and normal cordless all in one

Advantages: practical, dual phone, easy to install and use
Disadvantages: heats up your ear, need to keep far from audio speakers

...USB Cordless DualPhone for Skype The USB Cordless DualPhone is a cordless telephone that can be connected to a normal telephone socket and a USB port on a PC to be used both as a Skype phone and a normal cordless phone. I have found this particular phone very useful so I thought it was about time to write a review about it. First of all, WHAT IS SKYPE? Skype is a free program that, once installed on your computer, allows you to phone people all over the world as long as they have Skype installed too and a microphone. Nowadays you can even phone landline numbers for very cheap fares and I have found very useful to have an actual cordless telephone to plug in my PC for this purpose. I have always hated using microphone and headphones because they require the proximity to the computer (at least the mic does). This cordless phone was...

Review of Olympia Dualphone RTX 3045

iPhone

Advantages: Great interface. Excellent Music Clarity.
Disadvantages: Limited Official Apps

...have Skype, Webtexting and Photo based apps in no time. The Installer interface is very user friendly. The call qulaity from the iPhone is satisfactory. Volume control can be hard to use when in a call especially if a case is being used (More on that later). Texting is surprisingly simple with the on screen keyboard. The iPhones touchscreen is like nothing before in its percision. on screen correction is made possible by iPhones inbuilt dictionary. Music is a large part of the iPhones selling point and in my opinion is the exact same clarity and timbre that we have come to expect from Apple. Volume control can be hard on the on screen volume control if you have larger fingers however. The interface is the exact same as the iTouch series. Web browsing on the iPhone is a dream with an inbuilt Safari browser. I have yet to meet a site...

Skype Voipvoice Cyberphone

Advantages: Great form of comminication
Disadvantages: None

...VOIP VOICE CYBERPHONE-W I have just replaced my internet phone for this Voip Voice Cyberphone-W. I am a keen user of Skype as I do a lot of phoning abroad and I am always looking for cheaper ways of communicating. It is a very slim phone which plug into the computer by using the USB PORT at the side of ones computer. The handset is in a fetching colour blue/turquoise and silver which looks rather smart. The keypad is easy to use and the actual buttons are very solid and are a nice size not too small. It is light in weight and the handset is easy to hold compared to the one I had before which was a little more bulky and harder to hold. So it is easy to carry with you. This phone is ideal for using the Skype facility and all one needs to do is to down load the Skype from the CD which is provided when you purchase the phone...

Review of Skype Voipvoice Cyberphone

Skype

Advantages: Easy to use, 'free' calls
Disadvantages: Calls to phone aren't free

...I've been a user of skype for almost a year now. I originally downloaded it, as I'd heard it was one step in creating a podcast - something which the website I'm staff at were interested in doing. Over the past year, I've come to use skype more than other IM programs (most specifically MSN), as I've found it to be more user friendly, easier to use and it looks a lot nicer. Unfortunately, trying to tell my friends this has been a little harder - most are hesitant to download it mainly because they've never heard of it, whereas MSN is commonplace. **What is it?** Skype is a program you download and install on your computer, which allows you to make computer to computer calls and computer to phone calls. It also has the ability of IM-style conversations, with as many participants as you want, and video-calls. It's free to...

Belkin Wi-Fi handset - believe the Skype hype?

Advantages: Easy to set-up and use to gain access to the Skype network
Disadvantages: Cant connect to most wireless networks. Echo..

...with the look and feel of an actual phone but in reality not doing anything more than a headset or microphone. With the advent of most home broadband routers supporting Wi-Fi we finally now have a generation of Skype phones that are cordless and do not need to rely on a PC at all. Having some previous Skype knowledge my interest in the cordless "phones" started when I got a massive phone bill due to a close friend who was on a different mobile network to myself. My initial investigations showed models made by Netgear, Belkin, Linksys and SMC amongst others. Having read a few reviews their didn't seem to be much in the different models so I decided to basically go for the cheapest. On Amazon.co.uk this turned out to be the Belkin Wireless Skype Handset which at £46.99 was a good deal cheaper than the Netgear SPH101 at £80.12 at that time. I believe...

Review of Belkin F1PP000GN Skype WIFI Phone

Don't Defy WiFi, Reach for the Sky-pe!

Advantages: Easy to use, functional and portable.
Disadvantages: No text messaging function and no charging cradle.

..., but as long as youhave a mobile phone, charged all of the time, it shouldn't deem so much of a problem. **************************************************************************** THE PRODUCT: Belkin F1PP000GN Skype WIFI Phone. The Belkin Skype Wi-Fi phone looks pretty much like a normal cordless or mobile phone, and is distinctly similar in features to the Sony Ericcson K800i. The keypad is a standard numeric keypad, additionally with call and hang up buttons just underneath the screen. Centrally the phone features a joystick for quick navigation through your Skype Contacts. The phone itself is a black, reinforced style plastic (as is the K800i) with a rubberised back for easier grip., and removable battery cover. At the base of the phone there is a USB charging point (the phone can also be mains charged and comes...

Review of Belkin F1PP000GN Skype WIFI Phone

iPhone

Advantages: Touchscreen, easy to use
Disadvantages: Slightly confusing menus

...Previously had a Samsung, loved it's simplicity and the fact it was flawless. Everything worked, easy to use yet still up to date with technology However, I recently lost the it and was given an iPhone, this phone is way 'cooler' than any phone I have ever had. Apple are taking technology in mobile phones way further than other brands I feel, ok there are flaws but where there are flaws there are exceptions with other cool gadgets that have made me completely forget about comparing it to my previous mobiles. For example, Google Maps, easy to use and very sufficient Internet use, amazing screen quality with touch screen buttons that actually work... really well too! In fact the touch screen buttons is one of the main reasons I recommend this phone, although Sony Erricson and other brands have reached into touchscreen I don't feel any...

Apple iPhone

Advantages: read review
Disadvantages: read review

...As everyone know, iPhone became really famous after this product got in the store. In a sense, It's a copy of iPod touch, at least, because of the outlook and of course, because of music player. Here is my review about iPhone. Why iPhone is good? Of course iPhone is very famous, because of It's outlook. Of course outlook is great, there is a one big touch sensitive screen and one button, what has only one function - bring you back to "home". You don't need some stick to move menus, It's really easy to surf in menu with your finger. All things functions so coherently, and It's really unfamiliar, example, to use WiFi, you don't have to change any options or retool profiles and you don't have to worry. All things what you haven't done, and you want do continue it later, it always opens from same place and everything is auto...

Review of Apple iPhone

The iPhone Masterpiece

Advantages: Visual beauty, ipod perfection, photo demon, movies screen, internet anywhere! PERFECT!
Disadvantages: cost and network locking (easily overcome) and ringtones (overcome aswell)

...This is the pinacle of phone, music player, video player technology. I can not believe how much stuff is wrapped into this beautiful device. okay first, there is the look. Now i doubt you will be able to find anyone who doesnt think this phone is gorgeous. It has an overall of 4 buttons and a switch. 1 for the home screen, 2 for sound, 1 for on and off and the switch to mute sound. The rest is controlled by your fingers on the 3.5" touch screen. It is beautiful peice of engineering technology. The touch screen is "clever" it know when you touch once, it knows when you pulling across the screen, it knows when your pinching. This is due to a sensitive electrical sheet underneath the glass, yes glass, that is connected to the apple mac os x system. It is stunning. The visual detail is nothing you would ever expect from a3.5" screen. You...

Review of Apple iPhone

iPhone I like

Advantages: Modern technology, amount of software and number of devices.
Disadvantages: No protective case.

...iPhone finally arrived on the UK market on the 9th November although not with the same amount of media attention it received in the U.S. it was still popularly accepted by the UK market. I bought mine on the 19th November for £269. This seems expensive but you get a digital camera, ipod and phone all rolled in to one with iphone + internet browsing and e-mail capability, also included are elements of a personal organiser (diary and notepad). The main feature of the phone is the touch screen technology which operates everything. Without boring you with technical detail I will tell you what I got from iphone. There are 17 screens (buttons you can push on the face of the camera.) The 4 on the bottom horizontal strip are the phone, e-mail, internet browsing and i-pod. There 13 buttons on top from left to right in 3 rows of 4 +1 are...
