Why a Broadband Cell Phone?
by Ursula Remen

Remember the days when you wanted to know the score of a football game? You had to call someone.
Nowadays you simply push a few buttons on your cell phone, and you can find scores and any other
information that may be of interest to you.

The vast majority of cell phones on the market today
are capable of connecting to the internet, with some
versions of web browsers built right into the phone.
It's easy to access email and a multitude of other
information. The menus are easy to understand and use.

Information isn't the only thing you can access with your
newest broadband gadget. How about some music to put
some spring into your step? Maybe a video clip to make
you chuckle? If you have a camera phone, it's easy to snap
a picture and even send it on to someone else's camera phone.
This can turn into a valuable tool if you happen to witness an
accident or a crime being committed. A snapshot of that moment
is a very accurate witness indeed.

Overage Charges

There is something you should be aware of before you get carried away surfing the net. While most cell phone
contracts allow you a certain number of minutes for web browsing, anything over and above the allowed time
can be very expensive. Contract and carrier rates vary, and it pays to check them out carefully. Even though the
costs are deccreasing, especially with bundled packages, the extra expense of going over the limit adds up really
fast if you are not careful.

The Power of the Bluetooth

Did you know that you can use your broadband cell as a modem for your computer while you're traveling?
Bluetooth technology is available on most newer communications devices, including your broadband phone
and your laptop. By connecting to your laptop with your Bluetooth connection, you can watch that important
game on the larger computer screen. No need to strain your eyes.

This is especially handy if your laptop can get a direct connection to broadband Internet service, as in some
motels, simply access the web on your cellular and then use the Bluetooth technology to connect to your laptop.

The quality of the connection of your cell will depend on the quality of the phone itself and the quality of your
connection. If you are out of the coverage area, you may not be able to make a connection, or the download
could be interrupted.

Connectivity is dependant on the quality of the signal provided by your personal communications service (PCS)
and what your contract allows in the form of connections with your cell phone.Choose the best phone you can
afford, and shop around for the best provider with a contract that suits your needs.
