MusicID from Cingular - Who Sings This….

Wednesday, December 20th, 2006

….Song?! Never leave this important information on the tip of your tongue again. Or, maybe you are having a heated debate with your friend over who is singing that song on the radio. Well now with MusicID on your Cingular phone, you can get this answer quickly. Devices such as the Sony Ericsson w810 have built in software. But you can dial #43 from any Cingular phone, hold it near the speaker for 15 seconds, and for $0.99, MusicID will tell you the artist and song title or it is free. In some cases, you will even receive the album artwork and a live link to purchase the ringtone. Come in to any of your local Reno, Sparks, or Carson City Cingular locations to get a free demo of this service.

A Mobile Browser You Can Use

Wednesday, December 13th, 2006

OperaMini

Your wireless phone can do a lot these days. It’s a device that can take a picture of a cute girl (or guy, as the case may be), listen to the new “tunes” you just downloaded, check email, and talk to your mother all at the same time. Tasks we have learned to conquer on our way to the office. However, your current wireless phone has not improved much in the way in which you browse the web. That is until now.

Your new mobile browser has just been released in a tight little package: Opera Mini. Opera’s new mobile version has made the mobile internet cool again. If you don’t believe me take it for a spin yourself. The new browser is a application. Meaning if your phone supports Java, which most newer phones do, then you are ready to surf.

Highlighted by it’s familiar interface the Opera Mini does a great job at mimicking the feel of your pc browser. Address bar at the top, search engines in the middle, bookmarks and history at the bottom of the browser are welcoming to any user. Impressing even further the browser scales down full web pages. Decreasing page size by as much as 90%, while preserving images, and lowering the data usage. You no longer have to wait to check your online banking, track an order, or even update your MySpace page.

Sony-Ericsson Launches First Bluetooth Watch

Tuesday, December 12th, 2006

More and more, it is becoming just as “corporately unacceptable” to look at your vibrating phone as it is to answer it. Sony Ericsson has come up with a sleek, sylish, and subtle solution: The MBW-100. From this device, you can control calls wirelessly with your watch. According to SonyEricsson.com, “This futuristic time piece combines innovative technology with eye-catching design. It’s a must-have accessory for technology lovers.”

We have demoed this product and it is Super Cool! You can contact John or Tyler if you would like to see it in person. It connects wirelessly to your handset and displays caller ID and message alerts, plus lets you reject calls and control your phone’s music player. We have also found a hidden treasure with this device. It will alert you once your phone becomes out of range from your watch. Is there any way you can leave your phone behind now?

This item is available via Special Order at all Comanco Cingular Wireless locations. The retail price is $400.
