The amazing i-mate JAM

Advantages: High spec, good looks, smallest PDA available and great value for money.
Disadvantages: No intergrated WiFi and less RAM than some PDA's.

...I first became addicted to Pocket PC?s with my HP IPAQ 4150 which was a birthday present from my husband. I quickly found I could not live without it. Then when I came to renew my mobile phone contract I thought ?wouldn?t it be great to have a Pocket PC and Phone in one?. A techie friend had showed my his Smartphone but after using a windows based Pocket PC I knew it wasn?t for me ? I was clearly spoilt, I needed a user friendly interface and top notch performance. Then my husband introduced to me to i-mate. I browsed the i-mate website, saw the JAM, and knew I had to have it. So what is it? The i-mate JAM is the smallest Windows Pocket PC available. It includes an internal GSM/GPRS Tri-band (900/1800/1900GSM) antenna for voice and data calls - perfect for picking up emails or surfing the web whilst on the move. It...

Review of IMate JAM GSM/GPRS Pocket PC

Jam Packed!

Advantages: One ultra portable device
Disadvantages: Battery Life

...This has got to be one of the best Mobile Phones/Pocket PC's on the market. A small sleek device packed with features. The Design is sleek and small 108 x 58 x 24mm. It's one of the smallest pocket PC phones on the market. Weighing in at just 160g it's nearly one of the lightest too. It does feel a little thick and heavy in your pants pocket and is best to carry in the case on a belt.The casing is silver plastic which allows for it to be so light. Its overall feel I would describe as 'Chunky' this small body houses a neat well spaced out QWERTY keyboard. All you do is grip the top and slide the back to reveal it. The keyboard does make the device thicker than it should be however the bonus of having it is great for the texter and emailer amongst us. The specs for the device are pretty good it boasts 128mb ROM and 64mb RAM. Texas...

The beauty that is an SP5

Advantages: WIFI , Bluetooth , Quad Band , Windows Mobile 5 , Camera .
Disadvantages: Exposed Screen , sometimes dodgy joystick , Mini SD Slot location.

...By far this is the best phone I have ever owned..... Bar none!! What sets the SP5 apart from other smartphones is the inclusion of wifi. To most this may seem a little pointless , however , when coupled with Exchange direct push this makes for a very quick and cheap way to check your mails. It's also great for when you are sat at home and quickly need a phone number or to check the news. I would never go back no way..... from now on wifi is a basic requirement for me. The phone has tons of great features , I love the way it 'sensors' it is dark and turns on the backlight for the keypad. I also use the phone as an MP3 player , which it is more than capable of being. Simply install a mini SD card and you're away , I currently use a 2GB one. The phone is also great for use as a SAT NAV device. I purchased a GPS dongle and a copy...

The Jam

Advantages: Good Music
Disadvantages: None

...This is a good quality CD that offers good value for money in the short term. Although as with most music you might get fed up with it after a while. The value will deteriorate over time and should be anle to get a cheaper version next year. It incorporates most of the latest features and technology that is currently available on the market. All Mod Cons was to be followed by the albums Setting Sons (1978), Sound Affects (1979) and The Gift (1982). Additional Album Notes ********************* The Jam: Paul Weller (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, piano, harmonica) Bruce Foxton (vocals, bass) Rick Buckler (drums, percussion). Producers: Vic Coppersmith-Heaven, Chris Parry. Price **** All Mod Cons [Original recording remastered] is available at Amazon.com for £5:97...

sp does it again

Advantages: great product
Disadvantages: over priced

...My friend used to work for Wella SP and I was lucky to be blessed with some of her samples and although this is a very expensive range it is fantastic, I do not think that I would buy it as the price is a very big off Put, but the products are first class and in a class of their own. Wella SP Perfect Hair is for damaged areas of your hair and protects it against the heat and helps to volumise and strengthen your hair , so it's ideal for use before blow drying or straightening your hair. For the best results apply Wella SP Perfect Hair evenly through towel dried hair, being careful not to use too much or it makes my hair look greasy make sure it is prior to blow drying or straightening for the best results. It also smells great and leaves you hair smelling fresh and clean. This product if you blow dry your hair has saved my...

Black and blue jam

Advantages: Lovely flavour
Disadvantages: can be expensive to make

...We went blackberry picking on Saturday as we are fortunate enough to have quite a few areas of unspoiled (ie not near a road) blackberry bushes around here. After making several batches of blackberry jam (my preserving pan is very old and has been inherited and can only cope with 1kg of fruit - slightly annoying), I had 450g of blackberries left over. I was about to freeze them as I wouldn't have had enough to make a whole 2lb jar and the only small jar I had left would have been too small and then I remembered the punnet of blueberries I had in my fridge so thought that I would combine the two fruits and try out a black and blue jam. The recipe is simple and to be honest I think I hit on the right balance of the fruit straight away - 60% blackberry and 40% blueberry but you are more than welcome to try another combination...

Review of Recipes for Jams and Preserves

Great combination device for the gadget lover.

Advantages: Slide-out keyboard, touch-screen, Windows Mobile 5
Disadvantages: No 3G, slightly lacking in power

...I've run this phone on a Vodafone contract for just over a year now. Previously, I'd had an SPV, which was great, but a little fiddly for many of the smartphone features. The K-JAM resolves every issue that I ever had with the SPV, and provides more functionality that I didn't know I wanted. The first thing to grab your attention will be the slide-out keyboard. This is guaranteed to impress everyone when they see it, and it is as good as it looks. I find the keys very well proportioned, although I do have thin fingers - if you have bigger fingers, you might find it slightly more tricky. Although you have the option of entering data using the stylus (and the letter recognition software is impressive), the keyboard does make things so much easier. The only thing I dislike about the keyboard is the fact that some symbols are only...

It's Time To Jam

Advantages: Some great tracks
Disadvantages: Lack of consistency

...Here is the soundtrack to the 1996 Warner Brothers, basketball-related film "Space Jam", which starred Michael Jordan. This too was released in '96. The film was partly animated and included many of the Looney Tunes, including Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd and Daffy Duck, some of whom appear during this R&B and Hip Hop-dominated album. I didn't specifically buy this at the time, it was a special offer with the "Space Jam" video at the time as it came free with it, and to be honest, without this I probably wouldn't have picked it up. 1. "Fly Like an Eagle" - Seal Here is a Steve Miller cover by the UK soul singer Seal. It fits in very well with the theme of the film and it is extremely inspirational. I found that the dramatically improved the song by making it more universal to the listener. **Five Stars** 2. "The Winner...
