subscribers around the world and highly competitive market for mobile handset manufacturers, there has been lot of features added to mobile handsets in the recent times. This makes the buyers difficult to chose the correct handset.

Today, even the cheapest models boast of features like FM radio, MMS capabilities, camera and video recording and decent memory sizes. Buying a mobile has become a complicated task with the new buyers trying to understand these features.
An important aspect that one needs to consider is the list of features and the price at which it is offered.

• Budget handsets: This category is the starting range of all handsets companies and basic features in this would be FM radio, MMS, speaker phone, good phone book capacity. Most of them have color screen and some of them even offer VGA cameras. The price range would be up to Rs 5000 /-. Few phones in this category are Nokia 6070 and 6080, Sony Ericsson K310i and K320i, Motorola W220

When you plan to purchase a mobile phone, the basic and useful features, apart from phone voice clarity, I would recommend are;

Good screen display with 262K colors, screen size may vary from phone to phone, but go for a good display.

Camera is available in most of the handsets and currently 2MP is most common, unless you are going for a budget handset. 1.3 MP is also preferable if you are not interested to shoot some pictures.

Currently most of the handsets are having music player and if your priority is music, then definitely go for Walkman models from Sony Ericsson, they are worth.

Other features include GPRS, Web Browser (EDGE and Wi-Fi if you are an internet geek), blue tooth, MMS and expandable memory (this is one of the thing I give more importance) with card if available.

In the second catagory I would recommend Nokia 5300, W300i and W200i which are having decent camera and good music player. In the upper segment, which is the most competieve in market, there are quite a few models which include 5-6 models of Sony Ericsson Walkman and also the N series from Nokia.

So next time you plan to get a new handset check out the features it has to offer and the price.

Google entry to mobile phone bidding

Google has confirmed that it will be taking part in next year's sale of mobile phone spectrum in the US, heralding its entrance into the wireless market.

The company's executives have said over the past few months that they would be willing to spend upwards of $4.6bn (£2.3bn) buying up capacity when the Federal Communications Commission sells off part of the 700 megahertz (MHz) band.

The move means that Google could become America's newest wireless network operator. It already runs relatively small-scale wireless internet access networks in its home state of California, but winning new spectrum would allow it to start a national network.

But the search engine giant will be fighting the auction against bidders including existing mobile phone companies AT&T Wireless and Verizon Wireless, part-owned by Vodafone, who are looking for more capacity for their existing networks.

Google is particularly interested in a portion known as block C - which has a reserve price of $4.6bn - because it is being sold under the condition that whoever buys it must allow customers to download any software application they want onto their devices. Google lobbied hard for this portion of the airwaves to be free of ties to a particular technology.

The spectrum is being sold in an auction starting January 24 as part of the move to digital television.

"We believe it's important to put our money where our principles are," said Google boss Eric Schmidt. "Consumers deserve more competition and innovation than they have in today's wireless world."

"No matter which bidder ultimately prevails, the real winners of this auction are American consumers who likely will see more choices than ever before in how they access the internet."

Google will file its intention to take part in the auction with the FCC on Monday - the deadline for potential bidders to make themselves known. Its application does not include any partners.

Google maps for mobile

Google has released version 2.0 of 'Google Maps for mobile', its innovative mobile mapping- and local search- application. And, Google Maps for mobile v2.0 is a beta version of the Google "My Location" technology that uses cell tower ID information to provide users with their approximate location, thus helping them determine where they are, what's around them, and how to get there.

GPS technology is the most common source of location information till date. But, it is supported on less than 15 percent mobile phones sold today. Google's "My Location" technology is such that users who don't have GPS-enabled mobile phones, will also be able to get the benefit of location information. "My Location" technology is claimed to be faster than GPS; besides being able to cover the inside of buildings unlike GPS; and results in slower drainage of batteries vis-a-vis GPS. How "My Location" works is by taking information broadcast from cell towers, and sifting through it using Google's algorithms to estimate a user's current location on the map. The "My Location" feature can be disabled if not required. "My Location" technology is available on most smart phones; including all color BlackBerry devices, all Symbian Series 60 3rd Edition devices, most Windows Mobile devices, newer Sony Ericsson devices, and some Motorola devices. Google Maps for mobile with "My Location" can be downloaded by pointing one's mobile or desktop Web browser to www.google.com/gmm. The full range of mobile products/services available from Google is viewable at mobile.google.com. Meanwhile, 'Google Maps for mobile' was first launched in the US in November 2005, and enables users to view interactive maps and satellite imagery, find local businesses, get point-to-point driving directions, and view live traffic updates -- all -- while on the go.

Its weight of 115 gm and smaller dimension makes it very easy to carry in any pocket.

3G-Technology

3G, short for? Third Generation Wireless? Is the next generation high speed mobile system based on GSM. 3G supports broadband, packet-based transmission of voice,text, multimedia, and video data at rates from 384kpbs to 2mbps. At the heart of 3G is the aim to provide mobile users, wherever they may be, with the same high speed, services offered by broadband. With 3G, mobile users can access high speed internet, video conferencing, and basic video/ TV services.

3G can support a minimum of 2 Mbps for stationary or slow-moving users (walking) and 384 kbps for fast-moving vehicles (in an auto or train). Compare this to rates of 9.6-40 kbps for 2G and 2.5G systems.

3G was developed to address the ever-growing consumer demand for mobile network capacity and services. From the youth-inspired excitement for SMS to a need for seamless connectivity to the corporate network while traveling, consumers have embraced the benefits of mobility. The ITU (International Telecommunication Union) started the process of defining the 3G standard back in the mid-1980s. In 1998, the 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) was established to continue developing the 3G specifications. The 3GPP is a global body that brings together several telecommunications standards bodies from Europe, Japan, the United States, Korea, and China.

3G supports the needs of a growing mobile workforce, including the typical ?road warrior,? as well as those working from home, a satellite office, or commuting. 3G extends the office LAN to these mobile workers, providing access to email, corporate networks, and the Internet. There are many personal-use applications as well, ranging from ?smart? appliances to e-commerce and multimedia applications. And as 3G technology evolves, advanced applications beyond those envisioned today are sure to be developed.

Here are just a few of the benefits of 3G technology:

- While on the road, a manager can conduct a teleconference with colleagues to discuss an upcoming presentation. He can download the latest version, make edits online, all while talking.

Users can take advantage of mobile video on demand to watch news, sports highlights, and video clips anytime on their mobile devices.

- 3G gives mobile staff access to critical applications like Customer Relationship Management (CRM) applications. For example, field engineers can view a customer?s profile from the road, update their files, and even close the trouble ticket while onsite. Sales people can create and place orders while still at the customer?s location.

- 3G-enabled vehicles are beginning to enter the market. These provide access to traffic-view cameras, Internet access, gaming, and video-streaming

Useful info regarding mobiles

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it: -

I.

EMERGENCY

The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112.* If you find yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.

II

Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys?

This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call Someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"

III

Hidden Battery power Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting an important call and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve battery. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.

IV

How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone? To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. when your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

Mobile Manners

The mobiles industry wants as many people as possible to enjoy the benefits of mobile telecommunications and encourages individuals to use their mobile phones in a responsible manner and to be considerate and aware of situations where using their mobile phone might annoy others.

1. When in doubt, always go out
When possible go outside or to another room to make your call if your call might disturb others. Also, features such as text messaging answering services, call diversion and vibration alert can be used to receive important calls without disturbing others.

2. If you cant turn it off, use silent mode
If you need to keep your phone on for important calls, then turn it to silent or vibrate mode. Its the ring of a mobile phone in inappropriate places and times such as at the tennis or in restaurants which annoys people the most.

3. When required turn your phone off and check its off
There are some places where people should never talk on a mobile phone or send text messages and where the ringing of a mobile phone or message alert is considered highly unacceptable, such as: movies, stage shows, weddings, funerals, concerts, speeches, classrooms and lectures. In these cases, turn your phone off and remember to check its off before you enter the venue. You can always check your voicemail, text messages or your answering service afterwards.

4. Keep your conversations private
Peoples sense of personal space varies in each situation. Making a call in a busy pub may be okay, but talking loudly in a confined space like a lift or on a train tends to infringe on others personal space. Be aware of where you are and who you are with and what others are doing before deciding to make or accept a call. In some situations it might be better to send a text message.

5. Speak softly
Mobile phones have very sensitive microphones that can pick even the softest voice, so there is no need to shout. If you are having trouble hearing the other caller, check that you have the volume on your phone set high enough.

6. You dont always have to answer- use your messaging service
Its a natural reflex to answer your phone if it rings, however, if you forget to put your phone on silent or vibrate mode and it rings at an inappropriate moment, send the call to voice mail or your answering service (usually by pressing the hang-up key).

7. Talk to the one you're with
If you receive a call during a conversation, send the call to your voicemail or answering service. Your first priority should be to the person you are with. However, if you are expecting an important call let the person youre with know before the call arrives and excuse yourself before accepting the call.

8. Dont send inappropriate messages
Messaging is a great way to communicate, but dont send offensive or threatening text, voice, picture or any other sort of message, because it is a criminal offence to use a mobile phone to menace or harass someone. Also receivers can save messages and easily identify you as the sender.

9. Respect others' privacy when using in-phone cameras
In-phone cameras shouldnt be used anywhere a normal camera would be considered inappropriate, such as in change rooms or toilets. You should ask for permission before you take someones picture. Also bear in mind that some venues do not allow the use of cameras and may refuse entry to anyone with one.

10. Ban the ring: not the phone
Wherever conversations are normally acceptable, venues can help by asking people to turn their phones to silent or vibrate mode rather than turning it off. This approach will help with compliance, especially for people who need their phone for important calls. Venues can also assist by reminding people to set their phones to silent mode, before they enter.

Google Phone


Is Google going to introduce its Google phone? According to mobile industry insiders and analysts, Google is developing its own mobile phone which will tentatively be available for sale in 2008.Google might be working with HTC and mobile giant Orange to materialize this low cost and internet-connected mobile phone.



Both Orange and Google have kept perfectly silent on this matter. Nevertheless, Google spokesman revealed that mobile is an important area for Google and Google will continue to focus on creating applications as well as establishing and growing partnerships with these industry leaders to develop innovative services for its users worldwide.



If this rumour is true, it will benefit a lot of users. News leaked out from Google disclosed that this new Google phone is able to receive emails, handle voice-over-internet calls (VOIP), and other internet based functions. This phone will help users to synchronize their emails easier, make cheaper calls and even enjoy short movie clips from YouTube! All these can be done without a PC.



The launching of Google phone will definitely affect other mobile phones' market share. This news is spreading fast and it seems to be pretty accurate. Having said that, feverish speculations about Google products have been proven wrong before. Previously Google was widely reported to be building its own line of personal computers. However, what was actually produced was a set of free software programs designed to make any existing Windows PC easier to use.
