I'm a Brit who will visit USA on holiday for 2 weeks with my wife. We
want to use our Sony Ericsson W850i cell phones with a US sim card to
make calls within the States, calls to the UK and access the Internet.
Can anyone suggest sim cards that will do these things? Since we get

Stop blaming your handset for dropped calls. Handsets go through much
pre-launch testing and should work on a carriers network.
Report your dropped calls using our new Google Maps mash up at

I've purchased a Verizon XV-6700 about a month or 2 ago and
am looking for tweaks and hacks for it.
 Nice phone and I'm still learning how to use it everyday since
it is loaded with features but just so hard to use and navigate...

Well _ i'm sure with hacks it is possible, but how much and waht all

As far as I can see, the Nokia product has a substantial edge.

Got the H700 with a Moto Razr.
Razr's transceiver was way weak compared to the Noki candy bars I
was used to, so I took it back and the nice folks at tMob fixed
me up with the Noki 6133.

Looks Noki finally dropped the ball vis-a-vis power supplies.
Their User Guide's no prize either...
My new 6133 takes a much smaller plug than the pile of Nokias
I've got going back to TDMA days.

I am going to coin the term "Celltard"  (As in cellphone retard)
A cell tard is a person who spends their entire life staring at the

them.  This seems to be an addiction for some, particularly those in

Why is it that in so many cases, you pay a good price for a phone and,
while it performs as advertised, in no time flat, the screen gets
scratched though no fault of anyone?
I had this happen to me years ago with a Nokia 6610 and I have a

I presently use net10 with a Nokia 2600.  Net10 is satisfactory for my
uses and is cheap.  I would like to use a wifi capable phone like an
unlocked Nokia e61i.  The specs says Nokia e61i supports the GSM
850/1900 networks in the US same as the Nokia 2600.

Wanting to play around with BlueTooth, I went from the latest in
my series of Nokia candy bar phones to a Moto Razr.
I suspect that number signal strength bars is not comparable from
phone-to-phone (although the Razr consistently shows fewer...).

Another Hi-Tech Invasion of Privacy
THE IPHONE.
If you value your privacy, tell Apple where to shove their Iphone,
which should be called the SPYPHONE.

Did you see all those idiots waiting in lines to spend 600 to 700
dollars? Weak-brained morons if you ask me. Plus iTunes subscription,
Plus cell phone subscription on a cat-sh.t slow network (At&t). You
gotta be kidding.
