Atricle Dump - Putting it All Together: The search for a Pocket PC Phone
How Do You Get Wealthy? ot of hits with a good assortment of newer and older Pocket PC phones. At this point I’m thinking that I could get something maybe slightly used that would meet all of my requirements. This would also give me a good cross section of exactly what is out there and what features are available in this type of gadget.
After going through quite a lot of auction descriptions and cross referencing manufacturer web sites I had set my sites on a particular phone, the Siemens SX66. This particular phone/pda combo had been offered by Cingular until recently and it no longer showed on their website. It seemed to fit my wish list: a fast 400mhz xscale processor, wifi, Bluetooth, SDIO slot and it had a slide out keyboard for text input. So, I watched a few auctiSomething most of us know all to well is how to go to work and trade time for money. We have been taught this by our parents, who were taught by their parents and so on. It is passed down generation after generation; work hard at a job and you will be ok. Bullshit, I say! Sorry for being so blunt, but someone needs to give you a kick in the ass and wake you up and pull the blindfold off. Doesn’t just being OK really suck? Don’t you want more? Scary thing is we don’t know where to start since we were never taught anything about what it takes to get wealthy. One thing I know for sure, no one eve SEO copywriting for spiders: Nourishing the logical needs of search engine spiders When I decided that I needed to replace my terribly out of date mobile phone – an old Nextel i1000plus - my thoughts eventually wandered toward a pda phone. For those that know me this probably seemed like a no brainer. I have a long history of pda dependence going back years to a Palm 3X. However, I already had a pda that I was quite happy with. For the last year and a half I had used my HP iPAQ 2215 for everything from a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), an e-book reader, an MP3 player, a photo wallet, an alarm clock, a mobile web browser(utilizing a compact flash wifi card), among many other things. Trying to cram a phone in to all of this seemed overwhelming, but curiosity - and my need for a new gadget - got the better of me. My search was twofold - look for a new mobile phone and a new provider. With my current cellular provider I didn’t get any reception in my home so I needed to find a carrier that did.A satisfied spider can spin you a healthy bottom line.Search Engines send these programs, also known as robots, to ‘crawl’ and ‘index’ websites to help determine their relevancy and ranking.If your copywriting is not spider friendly, you’re missing out on one of the most powerful, cost-effective ways to achieve online presence: search engine optimization (SEO).Consider these facts:• More than 500 million web searches are made daily (source: Google)• Search engines account for more than 85 per cent of all new visitors to a website (source: GvU)• Studies indicat Through various unscientific means such as my own opinion polls of friends and work associates in conjunction with some internet research I whittled my way down to either Cingular or Verizon. Both tended to get high marks from the users I polled and the from internet research. With this part of the equation worked out I went online to see what kind of phones each had to offer. I was willing to go with a 2 year commitment in the hopes of getting a better deal on phone and plan pricing. In addition I wanted to get a group plan where my wife and I could share minutes. So, now I’m looking on each company’s respective websites for their state of the art Pocket PC phones. I’m not talking about the Smart phones – these are the phones with Pocket PC software jammed into a tiny little screen that isn’t even a touch screen – that just wouldn’t satisfy my needs. I’m talking about the full blown, “why are you talking into your calculator?” Pocket PC phones – the uber-geek, pocket protector included kind of micro computer powerhouse. After all, I’m married now and I’m really not worried about public opinion or impressing anyone with my sleek, stylish, sexy new cell phone. I’m hoping to spend around $300.00. I figure I can sell my iPAQ 2215 on eBAY for $200.00 and $100.00 for a new phone seems like a pretty good deal. So, what I find is one heck of a price tag. Verizon has the much talked about Treo 700. This is the first Treo with the Pocket PC operating system – Windows Mobile 5.0. This comes in at $500.00. Way too pricey for me and it doesn’t even have Wifi. Cingular’s best price on a PocketPC phone wasn’t much better. I could get an HP iPAQ hw6510 for $400.00. Again, no wifi. This is a real sticking point for me. I don’t see any reason why a device designed for communication would leave out this major specification. Being able to connect to an 802.11b/g wireless network when it is available is a necessity. Okay, back to the drawing board, maybe I can try this from a different angle – Ebay.

So, I watched a few auctions and kept an eye on the prices.Let us begin our journey into list building by describing the basics. First do you know how important a list is (your very own personal list) when you are building an online business? Let me ask you a couple of questions. Are you more willing to open an email from someone you know, or someone you do not know?I know this may seem like a silly question, but it highlights a fundamental human quality: People tend to business with friends or those that they know, like, and trust. And building a quality list does this for you. It places you on the top of your subscriber’s mind, and over time th But, sometimes you just have to get off of the internet and hit the brick and mortar. I went to my local Verizon and Cingular stores and talked to the sales reps about what plans I was looking for. I wasn’t impressed with my long wait at the Verizon Wireless store or the pushy salesman that I got. He seemed to think he knew just what I needed and kept showing me phones and plans that I just wasn’t interested in. I had a different experience at the Cingular store. The sales rep showed me a map of the cell coverage around my home, he talked to me about the plans that I had seen on the website and when I mentioned to him that I had been looking at a Siemens SX66 Pocket PC phone on Ebay he went into the back of the store and came out with the last SX66 that they had. I signed on to a 2 year deal with Cingular that night with a heck of a good deal on a Pocket PC phone that had all the specifications that I had been looking for. And you know what? I can even talk on my Siemens SX66 sitting in my living room.
