iPad – How to Get a Cheap iPad

Posted by admin under Computers And Technology on Thursday Aug 27, 2009





iPod touch, iPhones, iMac and iPad. These are the electronics that everyone wants but can’t afford them due to how expensive they are. So how do I get a cheap ipad for under $100? Getting anything from Apple for under $100 is very hard and difficult.

However, it is possible to get these products for almost to nothing you just need to know where to go to get them. You will spend countless hours online looking for sites that offer these products very cheap, but most of them will just scam you or try ripping you off.

However there are some sites that has them for low prices. Just to name a couple of them would be:

1. Craigslist- This site you can find just about anything for half the price, but most of the time they will be used or broken in one way or another.
2. PriceGrabber- Very typical site kind of like amazon but they have a lot lower prices.
3. Ebay- The most obvious of them all. I would not recommend using craigslist because there is a high chance the seller is scamming you.

Those are just a few sites that is offering the iPad for low prices, but they are still pretty expensive and you will still be paying over a $450.

So is there any other site offering the iPod touch for under $100?

Yes, there are a few sites that are offering iPod touches for under $100 however they are very hard to spot because most people over look them as just scams. Don’t be closed minded and take a look around and research it.

3 Key Differences Between the iPad and the Kindle

Posted by admin under Computers And Technology on Thursday Aug 27, 2009





The one thing that Apple is used to, is being one of the most innovative companies on the planet. Whenever a new device made by Apple is set to come to the market, you can be sure that it will have features that you have never seen before. Even if the actual device was first created by another company. They always find a way to improve on the original invention. They did this with the iPod against other MP3 manufactures. They also did this against their rival mobile phone manufacturers with the iPhone.

Now they are going to try it once again with the iPad. Even though they mean for the device to be more of a general purpose computing entity, there is no denying that one of their main targets is the Kindle that is manufactured by Amazon. Let’s note the key differences and see how they stack up to one another.

· Touch Screen functionality – Even though both screens are roughly the same size, the iPad has a touch screen functionality that is sure to please the users of the device. Since most of the early adopters of the platform will be former iPhone users, a similar interface is a huge advantage. And consumers who are not using an iPhone now will surely be more impressed by the touch features than the normal hard button navigation presented by the Kindle.

· Device Functionality – The Kindle was meant to be an ebook reader and nothing more. They focused on giving people a similar experience to when they would sit down and read a paperback book. The iPad is going to try and give those same users something more. Apple wants to give them the same ebook functionality, but wrap it in a device that will function as a mini computer as well.

· Color Screen – The Kindle is in black and white. The iPad is in color. That advantage definitely goes to the iPad. Since most people are used to color devices, I would have to say that the iPad will be looked upon more favorably by the average user. While the kindle creators claimed that they decided to go with a black and white screen so that users could feel as if they were reading a real book, people are going to see the kindle side by side with the iPad and ultimately choose the color device.

These are three key differences between the iPad and the Kindle. All of these factors will make a huge difference in someone who is deciding which device that they want.

iPhone Insurance Review

Posted by admin under Insurance on Sunday Aug 16, 2009





An iPhone insurance review is probably one of the hardest topics to research on the internet today in my opinion. For some reason I haven’t been able to find a lot of information, as I have a feeling that quite a few of the large ‘high street’ providers are making a killing. For example, in the UK, a not-to-be-named providers (guess what folks, there is only one!) is quoting ?15 for comprehensive insurance per month. To me, I just find that incredible considering the average contract tariff is only ?35 per month.

There truly is some sort of monopoly, and I wanted to write about my experiences to hopefully save you all some money! My review of the top three ways to save is below!

1. Bank account insurance cover – I know for a fact that many premium account holders within the UK are automatically covered up to a certain extent. When I checked with my bank, they were happy to cover for a cost of up to ?350 for free!!! Amazing right?

2. Independent online insurance companies – Did you know that you can make up to a 50% saving on the insurance policy compared to the high street provider. Just get online and do some research. Did you know that a search for ‘iPhone insurance’ in Google returned over 62 million results. There are plenty of great insurance providers out there folks!

3. Home contents insurance cover – Once again, a usually unknown source of cheap cover. For an additional ?1.56 per month they gave me full cover of up to ?400, and it also wouldn’t affect my no claims bonus! Unfortunately my new iPhone 3Gs is worth ?600 so i had to go down the independent route.

So there you have it! My iPhone insurance review!

A Review of the China Version of the iPhone 3GS

Posted by admin under Communications on Tuesday Aug 4, 2009





I’ve been getting a lot of emails about this phone. People want to know if the quality is good, if it functions as well as the authentic, Apple 3G iPhone, and whether it is worth the extra money (since it’s a little more expensive than most of the clones.) In an attempt to answer most of the concerns and questions that I get, I’m going to review the Chinese version of the iPhone 3GS in the following article.

To Be Clear, I’m Reviewing The Chinese Version Of The iPhone 3GS That Includes The New Chip, The Compass, And WiFi: After taking a quick glance at some of websites selling different versions of this phone, it’s clear that some models that are calling themselves a Chinese 3GS are better and different than others. Some of them lack WiFi so please note that this review does not cover those. For the purposes of this article, I am going to be talking about the higher end models that include WiFi, have the newer, faster chip, include the compass, and accommodate 32GB of memory. If this is the phone that you want, you should stick with trusted sellers since not everyone is selling the phone that I am talking about here.

Upgrades On The New China Version Of The 3GS: Perhaps the biggest upgrades to this model are the new, faster chip which makes the phone more responsive and quick and the addition of WiFi availability. This one also accommodates more memory (32GB) and has a new higher mega pixel camera and web cam. It also includes 6 pages of icons, offers free web TV and web radio, and has an enhanced, larger 3.5 inch touch screen. This model also includes Google maps. It also offers side – sliding to flip through the pages and is a high quality quad band.

Performance On The Chinese iClone 3GS: To be fair, I am usually a big proponent of these clones. I typically don’t have any qualms about using a phone that is not the original. I am typically more interested in the features and performance rather than the logo, so I suppose that I’m the target consumer that the clone manufacturers are after. With that said, I believe that this model will make even the most skeptical consumers pretty happy. This phone accomplishes most every task that you can perform on the Apple model. It also offers the availability of dual sim slots which offers you some bonus flexibility in how you use the phone and in how you save money.

Overall this phone feels and performs quite solidly. It doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. The colors are bright and the resolution is crisp. It’s quick and responsive and also has the “shake and tilt” feature so that it will always turn itself to correspond with the way that you are holding it. The.3 additional inches of screen might not seem like a lot of real estate, but it makes web browsing on this one a nice experience as does the speed of the WiFi.

Cost Savings: Let’s be honest. Most people have some interest in these phones because they want to save money. This phone accomplishes that goal. Not only is the clone much less expensive in terms of the price tag to buy one, but most of us realize that the original model comes with a mandated contract. Buying a clone means that you are free from this. You don’t have to pay over $120 per month from AT&T for decent service if you don’t want to. You can use any GSM card world wide (including contract and pay as you go) without making any commitment.

Overall, I’m impressed by this phone. Granted, I’m predisposed to liking the clones. But this is a particularly good one since it covers pretty much all of the features that you could possibly want and it does it all at a pretty high level.
