Have you ever been in a situation where you have
wanted to take a picture of something and didn’t have
a camera with you
It can be quite frustrating because you miss a great
photo opportunity simply because you don’t have the
right equipment with you.
But if you have an Apple iPhone, you never have to
worry about missing those great photo opportunities
again.
The Apple iPhone has a two-megapixel camera that is
built right in and is ready to use when you want to
take a picture. Even if you have had a cell phone with
a built in camera before, you will find that it
doesn’t compare to what the Apple iPhone can do.
The Apple iPhone makes it easy to share your photos
with its easy and automatic synchronization, whether
you are using a Mac or a PC for your docking.
It’s never been easier to display the pictures you
take - all it takes is a touch of a finger. Not only
that, but when you take your pictures they can be
posted directly to a Mac Photo Gallery.
The Apple iPhone is a photographer’s dream come true.
It’s ready to take pictures when you are and makes it
easy to show off the pictures that you have taken
almost immediately.
You will never have to worry about missing out on
taking a beautiful picture because you have a great
camera built right into your cell phone.
No matter whether you are a professional or an
amateur, you will find the camera on the iPhone easy
to use.

Creativity is key in Ringtones
When you have a cell phone, one thing that you want is
to be able to define your phone by choosing your own
ringtone. This way you know that your ringtone is
special and that you can immediately pick it out from
all the other ringtones in the building.
With some phones, it can be frustrating because you
only have a limited amount of ringtones to choose
from. But that is not the case with the Apple iPhone.
Apple has made it easier than ever to find just the
right ringtone for your iPhone.
When you choose the Apple iPhone, you have a directory
of over 500,000 songs on iTunes to choose from, but
the options don’t stop there.
Once you have found a song that you want to select in
the iTunes store, you can use your own imagination and
creativity to have the song played the way that you
want it to be played.
You can have it fade in and out, loop, and preview it
before you purchase it to make sure that it’s just the
way that you want it to be.
With the Apple iPhone, you never have to worry about
having the same ring tone as everyone else because you
make it the way you want it to be.
When someone hears your phone ringing, and how cool it
sounds, you can say to him or her, “Thank you. That’s
my Apple iPhone that you hear, and I created that
ringtone myself.”
There is a certain satisfaction in knowing that you
took charge of your own ringtone.

Breaking the Bounds of Boredom with iPhone
How many times have you been traveling somewhere and
there is nothing to do but watch the scenery go by
You have listened to your music over and over again,
you have read your books, and you just want to watch a
movie.
But when you are traveling in a car, it’s impossible.
But that isn’t true anymore. If you have the Apple
iPhone, you can take your movies and television shows
with you wherever you go.
The Apple iPhone has a generous 3.5-inch screen and it
lets you enjoy anything that you have rented or
purchased from the iTunes store right there on your
iPhone, wherever you are.
The iPhone controls work very much like a DVD player
remote - you can use them to play, pause, or even view
certain chapters.
It’s also easy to adjust the volume on your iPhone so
that you don’t disturb the people around you.
It’s hard to believe that Apple has packed so many
features into one small device, but the company also
knows what people are looking for in their cell
phones.
They want to have plenty of options and they want
their cell phone to give them a lot of technology
right there at their fingertips.
The iPhone not only is a great phone and camera, but
it’s also a wonderful way to get rid of boredom. With
the big selection of movies and television shows on
iTunes, you will be able to find something that you
want to watch no matter what your tastes are.

6 Tips For Buying The Right Mp3 Player
Next to cell phones, MP3 players are the must have, hot product everyone wants to own. There are lots of great players available, but how do you know which one is right for you? Here are some tips that will help you make the right decision before purchasing an MP3 player.
Tip #1 - Type of MP3 Player - There are basically four types, flash, hard drive, micro hard drive and CD based players.
Flash players are small, have a memory chip built-in, and are more durable with no moving parts, which mean they will not skip a beat during sports activity or running. Because of their compact size, space is limited to 4gigs or less depending on the model you choose. iRiver, SanDisk and Creative MuVo are three popular brands of flash memory players.
Hard drive players are great for anyone who wants to take their entire library worth of music with them. Featuring high capacity storage ranging anywhere from 4gigs to 60gigs of hard drive space. With so much disk space available, you can also store data files, pictures and video, allowing for true portability.
Unlike flash players, hard drive players are larger in size, cost more and have more movable parts, which may not make it idea for physical activity. Popular among the brands are Apple Ipod, Creative Zen Vision, and Wolverine MVP models.
Additionally you can opt for an micro hard drive player. Micro MP3 players are a cross between a flash and a regular hard drive player. Max storage capacity is usually 8gigs, have a miniature hard drive, and are light weight and compact. These players still have movable parts and some models include non-removable re-chargeable batteries.
CD MP3 players are similar to CD players, except they can read data CD's. Capacity is the same size as a CD which is 650mbs, and the music needs to be burned. They can also play standard CD's.
Tip #2 - Digital Format - Not all players support every music format but should play the standard mp3, wma, wav formats. For additional audio format, look for players that support aac, asf and ogg. Not stopping at audio format, you may also have a need to view video formats such as mp4, mov, wav, avi, and flash. To get the most out your purchase and enjoy your favorite digital pictures, look for models that support picture formats such as jpeg, gif, tiff and png. Flash Players such as Creative Zen, iRiver Clix, and Cowan iAudio can display text documents.
Tip #3 - Battery Life - Next to storage capacity, battery life is probably the most critical consideration with MP3 players. Options include standard batteries (AAA or AA type batteries) or rechargeable batteries. With standard batteries, you can easily replace them when needed, while some rechargeable models are non-removable lithium-ion batteries, and typically last two to four years. Since flash players need to be synced more often, recharging occurs as you sync. For larger players, battery life is usually longer but may not always be the case. Make sure you inquiry about battery life for those models.
Tip #4 - Features - With the capability to view video and photos, bright color screens with image display are usually a favorite among buyers. Voice recording with built-in or optional voice recorders, let you record seminars or meetings. Want to listen to other music, some models include an FM tuner for listening and recording (mp3) radio stations. Players such as Apple iPOD and Creative Zen line allow for personal information management options such as phone books and calendars that can synchronize data between desktop applications and the player.
Other features to consider: advanced playback features such as shuffle, repeat, resume, and playlist functions. Newer models now offer the ability to create on the fly playlists, smart playlist for grouping songs in shuffle mode and automatic volume control that makes songs play at the same volume. Don't forget about music search and sort options to find songs.
Tip #5 - Connectivity Options. Most if not all MP3 players support USB 2.0. Other connectivity options you may want to consider is Firewire, audio and line inputs. Some next-generation models include Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth capabilities.
Tip #6 - Functionality - Don't just consider bells and whistles when looking for the right MP3 to purchase. Functionality is usually what makes MP3 players stand apart from each other. Test drive each player and notice how easy or hard it is to navigate the menus. Do the buttons feel cheap or easy to press? Is the screen display sufficient in bright light? Is it compact enough for daily or sport activity? What accessories are available for the player?
No matter what model you choose, an MP3 player will be a great addition to your entertainment hardware!

4 Tips For Choosing An Mp3 Player, Part 2
Part III - So what am I looking for?
Probably the last question you need to ask yourself. Weigh up between image (size, shape, style, colour), performance (play time, memory, compatibility, gizmos, other functions) and quality (useability, interface, design, battery life). Work out what's important, and Google or eBay will do the rest for you (or if not, then your younger brother or sister will also suffice). There is always a cheaper price for something, but there is always more hassle to get something that you want exactly. If you've ever bid for an eBay item, then found something way cheaper than what you've just bought, then you'll know what I mean. Look, if you're going to spend money (any amount of money), then it's important to at least pick something that works long enough for you to at least look the part, and one that you won't throw out the window because that's all it's good for. Therefore, battery life, memory, interface and compatibility should not be taken lightly.
Part IV - So what do I do with it?
You've got yourself an MP3 player, so what's next. Well, you can use it as a fashion accessory, play some MP3 music, or just leave it sitting in the closet until a better model comes out. It's hard to say unless you've got one, and once you've got one, you'll work out what to do with it. Sometimes it's an expensive lesson to learn, but most times when you spend money for something, you invariably find a use for it, even if it's just another item on the eBay used section.
Useful advice? Well, don't just take my word for it, because even bad advice needs to be taken to be believed. Take these suggestions into account when you are choosing your mp3 player, and you'll be well equipped.

4 Tips For Choosing An Mp3 Player, Part 1
Choosing an MP3 player used to be a much easier shopping decision than it is today. Just a couple of years ago, only MP3 players played MP3 music. Nowadays, every man and his dog that has a mobile phone, laptop or memory storage device can play MP3 music. Now that there are a few more things to take into consideration, it is wise to think about a few issues before splashing out some serious money (or trying to save some serious money).
Part I - Do you need an MP3 player?
Probably the most important question you need to ask yourself. Why do you want one? Does your mobile phone already come with an MP3 player? What about your laptop? Why would you need one if you've already got one? The only reason MP3 players exist in their own right is because a mobile phone is a much better device for making phone calls on the go, and an MP3 player, well, it is a much better device for playing MP3 music. When there is a comprise in function, there is a comprise in function (i.e. quality and performance).
Part II - Do you need a good MP3 player?
Probably the second most important question you need to ask yourself. It does sound like a rhetorical question. Of course you want a good MP3 player, but please provide a definition for "good". Do you want something that looks good, plays good (well is probably a better word) or sounds good (or all three perhaps). Remember that these days people will buy things for the image (looks/sounds good), performance (plays good) and quality (lasts good). All three come at a cost (though not necessarily equal in weighting), and usually you'll find that two out of three ain't bad. Sometimes big name brands not only looks good (the Japanese designers are experts at this), sounds good (for example, hey look, I've got a Sony -insert model here- !), but they might actually have good performance or quality as well (Some say the iPod belongs in that category, but I don't want to start another online forum about it). But most of the time, practical people start with performance or quality, and just hope that it's something they can hide in their designer label clothing's MP3 pocket.
