Tracfone now offers the LG 200C at only $29.99. The LG 200C is a clamshell mobile phone with basic features such as SMS and caller-id. Probably not the kind of phone most people use this days owing to the fact that it doesn’t have a camera. And unlike Nokia accessories, the LG cell phone accessories for the LG 200C are very hard to find. Users of this phone have reported that they end up buying data cables from another phone brand since they happen to have the same cable ports.

But, to say the least, this clamshell has reaped good reviews for its voice clarity and excellent signal strength. Users of this mobile phone will appreciate the clear conversations they will experience. Though there are still background noises, these are greatly minimized. For $29.99, the LG 200C is a good deal for any potential buyer who just need a phone, nothing more, nothing less.

The LG Chocolate was the first eye catcher in Verizon’s line-up and it would only seem right that they would either release an updated version or a follow up to combat with the changing demands of cellular consumers. With that said, we’re now presented with the LG Chocolate (VX-8550), the update to the popular Chocolate that is now available via Verizon’s website. The updated Chocolate boast new features such as a new keypad that uses touch feedback and a new feature that LG calls “Trace Motion” with uses light to determine the input.

The Nokia 3220 is certainly one of the attractive mobile phones and one of the affordable phones as well. Along with the low-end price are features that are quite impressive for a small unit but useful at the same time. The outer casing of the 3220 sports a funky, sporty theme. Definitely not the kind of phone business executives would want to carry around. But it appeals to the young people of the market.
With an assortment of customized cell phone cases, cell phone covers, and other Nokia accessories, the 3220 is pretty much a fashionable mobile phone. But though the 3220 seems to be a youngster’s mobile phone of choice, the features are also worth noting. The display is pretty much impressive. The picture quality is acceptable. Voice quality for phone calls is decent. Phone conversations with the 3220 are not that bad.
As for flaws, I am pretty sure there some but who cares? For $99.99, this mobile phone is the bomb!

The Motorola ROKR E1 is the first non-Apple mobile phone that utilizes the iTunes music applications. As far as music is concerned, the Apple iPod has been very remarkably consistent on being the best portable music player. The fusion between Motorola and Apple to produce a very notable music phone is most likely a take on Sony Ericsson and Walkman’s domination on that category.

But whether Motorola and Apple succeed or not, the Motorola ROKR E1 surely rocks! With built-in memory that can hold up to 100 songs, a very crisp voice quality on the headset and stereo speakers, and other features that, well, rock. Clad this mobile phone with Motorola cell phone accessories like cell phone cases, cell phone covers, etc. and you are good to go.
Cell phone batteries go a long way wit this mobile phone. Average talk time can go as far as 4 hours and 20 minutes. Stand by time can last for 230 hours.

The Federal Communications Commision (FCC) has recently announced its plans to raise the Universal Service Fund (USF) fee to $1 or more every month. This new ruling would apply to all carriers of wireless service. While $1 doesn’t seem like too much at first, for companies like Tracfone, this is nearly a 1600% increase from the previous USF fee. This increase adds up quickly and will definitely have a huge impact on Tracfone’s financials. Tracfone is currently saying alot to get people to get on their side to protest against the FCC’s rulings. The FCC is a federal committee but is operated completely by the public. Many past FCC rulings have been overturned because of public outcry, so hopefully for Tracfone this will be no exception.

The long wait is over as Verizon unveils its latest mobile phone from their fold: the Samsung u550. The Samsung u550 is a mid-range clamshell built for fashion and function. It’s elegant flip design is one of Samsung’s best as far as clamshell phones are concerned. The external display featuring the Roman numerals on the clock is simply magnificent.
The Samsung u550 performs extremely well. Features, both basic and advanced, are quite user-friendly. The Samsung u550 is a great phone overall. But one major flaw would be its web connection. It is not as slow as a snail trying to cross a highway, but it would have been better if it was bit speedier. But even with that kind of mishap, the Samsung u550 will predictably revel in its domination over other mid-class mobile phones.
As for customizing, Verizon offers a wide range of Samsung cell phone accessories such as cell phone batteries and cell phone antenna. Personlizing your phone is pretty much easier than you think.

AT&T had recently announced their plans to acquire small-time competitor Dobson Communications, which competes with AT&T in 16 different states nationwide. The acquisition of Dobson will allow AT&T to further strengthen and broaden its networks, taking advantage of areas where Dobson’s network was once dominant to AT&T’s. This will allow AT&T to extend its service and products, such as the iPhone, to areas like Alaska that couldn’t once access these products before. This is a big move by AT&T, as it is going to cost them about $5 billion to complete this acquisition, which includes Dobson’s $2.3 billion outstanding debt. If all goes as planned, things should be nearing completion by December.

For as low as $24.99, you can now have the Sony Ericsson Z310 by way of CellularOne. The Sony Ericsson Z310 was not designed for upper echelons of the consumer strata, but it sure does work like a high end mobile phone.

The Sony Ericsson is one of those mobile phones that use VGA cameras. In addition to that, the Sony Ericsson Z310 takes high quality photo for a VGA camera. Apart from that, the Z310 also has a wide solid range of features that would put other mobile phones within its price range to shame. The design is also something worth noting. For a clamshell, the Sony Ericsson is a beauty. No need to get those customized cell phone covers and other cell phone accessories for the looks overhaul. Although the plastic feel makes the Z310 seem cheap, the overall performance compensates entirely for that. And speaking of performance, the talk time max for this phone is a whooping 7 hours. No need to get spare cell phone batteries.

Is there a mobile phone out there that can top that?

Unbelievably bad voice quality. Every single person, without exception, said the same thing; I’m fading in and out. Some Palm Treo 800w accessories that I would recommend is a cell phone antenna. Sometimes they can hear me, sometimes they cant. Sprint told me it was the people I was talking to!!!!! What?! Nice huh? Oh and here’s the clincher…if I just exchange if for the same phone and it does the same thing…I’m done. Period. That was my 30 day exchange and I can’t get anymore even if its the phone. So, not knowing if I got a bad phone, or if it’s a bad design, I’m not taking my chances. I’m getting a Curve. Also - Sprint can’t transfer numbers yet, still too new. Great service huh? You would think that these two dying companies; Sprint and Palm, would have collaborated a little better on training, service, and customer satisfaction.
