Some of the new Acuras, BMWs and Jaguars are coming with Bluetooth handsfree systems built into the car. You can transition between phone to car and back to your phone seamlessly via the Bluetooth hands free profile. So, what do you do if you don’t have one of these cars? You buy yourself [...]

Seems like a lot of people are making it here looking for information on using Cingular’s MediaNet service. I have the MediaNet unlimited package as when I signed up for the service I was very excited about the prospects of using my Nokia 6620 as a mobile modem for my laptop via Bluetooth. [...]

I just came across the Audiovox SMT 5600 Smartphone. I have not seen the phone in person, but from what I can see, it seems like a pretty sweet package. Let me say for the record that I am not a Microsoft fan, but I think they are finally making a compelling argument (my new [...]

Just came across the Jaguar XK Victory Edition that is to be released some time soon. The car is being released to celebrate Jaguar’s XKR, Trans Am Series, race cars’ (with 650bhp) four Manufacturer’s Cup outright wins. Basically, they have been kicking the crap out of everyone else since they introduced the XKR race program. [...]

Okay, now things are getting out of control. Nokia has just launched a free new Bluetooth service for their Bluetooth enabled phones called Nokia Sensor. You can check out the demo movie here. This is just plain crazy. In the demo, two people at a club meet because of Nokia Sensor. What [...]

Well, I laughed at Danielle the other day when the computer that is running Windows XP and Outlook 2003 and is configured to sync with both of our Nokia phones separately (or so I thought), sync’d my Outlook contact information to her phone. She has been waiting patiently for this stupid company to send [...]

We went to pick up Danielle’s new phone after the silly Cingular Phone Sales debacle (more on that later) at the local Cingular store the other day. We got her the Nokia 6230, which pretty much has all of the features that my Nokia 6620 has without the Symbian OS and some of the capacity. [...]

Using your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone as an internet gateway is really easy….if you know how to set it up. Funny thing is that Cingular does not tell you how to use the MediaNet unlimited account I have as an internet gateway, I had to search for an hour or so online to get it [...]

Well, I am down in Palm Desert, La Quinta actually, and I am connected to the internet via my Nokia 6620 mobile phone which is talking to my laptop via a wireless Bluetooth connection which is using Cingular Wireless’ MediaNet WAP internet package. For $24.99 a month I get unlimited internet access on my mobile [...]
