June 2008 From Product Reviews
Take a moment to reflect back over your last ten years with this subject heading: “Things I Did for Internet Access.” We all sat through a beeping static storm as our dial-up modems connected, finally delivering achingly slow page loads. I was once mugged at 2 a.m. in an Internet cafe in Barcelona, losing all my credit cards but still managing to get in an essential 15-minutes of e-mail. Lost an ethernet port on my laptop in 2004 when my apartment building was struck by lighting. Recently spent two workdays at home waiting for a Verizon tech to literally drill through brick to

Forget abstinence. I think teenagers should be encouraged to engage in fun, communicative, quality relationships, preferably with no long-term commitments...plenty of time for that later when they know what they’re really looking for. And so, I am writing to recommend that safest of all possible hook-ups, the pay-as-you-go cell phone plan from Virgin Mobile with UTStarcom’s latest teen sensation, the Super Slice (a.k.a. the PCS 1450). This candy bar-style handset is the width of a Girl Scout thin mint, only .4 inches. It’s light too, just 2.5 ounces. But this diminutive frame houses an astonishing array of features for an entry-level phone priced
March 2007 From News
It’s a little hard to pay attention to phones that cost less than $50 when this year’s CTIA show floor abounds with $400 handsets sporting touch-panel flashiness and GPS capability. But dealers can do well to give the lower price points a little spotlight. “Entry level phones are still a big segment of the market,” says UT Starcom’s Joan Cear. “And the good news is they’re not big and clunky anymore.” Indeed, the entry level phones coming out in 2007 look as slim, sleek and soft-edged as their high-priced design influences. UT Starcom is introducing the CDM 7026 and the CDM 7076, inexpensive
January 2007 From News
As early adopters save their C-notes and prepare to storm Cingular to acquire the stock-boosting iPhone, phone manufacturers are watching the flurry with a cocked eyebrow, wondering if a public which has demanded smaller and smaller handsets with bigger and bigger rebates is really going to go for a substantially-priced convergent device with smartphone heft. Knowing the market is a large and diverse one (Americans have purchased many more cellphones than iPods, at least for now), phone makers are turning out new takes on previous hits, and the new models (of phones and their bluetooth accesories) are almost all significantly smaller than

May 2006 From E-Gear
The latest MP3 phones put music at your fingertips. It feels perfectly natural these days to use your cell phone as a watch, an alarm clock, and even a spooky blue flashlight...so why not adopt MP3 functionality as well? Now that memory and downloading features are expanding, these six models will tempt you to walk out the door with one less little rectangle in your pocket, and their petite sound systems are getting so good, actually, that some of them double as baby boom boxes too! Rock the convergence, and keep pulling for someone to invent that Swiss Army Knife phone one day real

At Last, a Cell Phone That's Potty Trained!
April 2006 From News
Though UT Starcom's two new phone announcements, the CDM 7025 and CDM 7075, focused on pitching stylish-looking handsets to the low-end of the market (the "free phone" so many carriers will throw in with a new service contract), the company did show a remarkable new phone called the G'z One, expected out later this year. Remarkable because they displayed the sturdy black plastic handset sunk in a gallon of water! The G'z One, billed by UT Starcom spokeswoman Joan Cear as "water resistant and shock proof" can withstand total submersion for up to 30 minutes, wonderful news for the hundreds of people who've lost
