DARE to be BOLD — LG and BlackBerry Introduce New Phones

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

You know the drill.  A new cell phone gets introduced to the market and it is claimed to be “the most innovative and technologically advanced cell phone available today.”  And with the race to smartphone supremacy, all manufacturers are putting their best product forward.  So here we are with the upcoming release of two new, hot phones.

It’s been rumored that Research in Motion (RIM) is delaying the release of its iPhone contender phone, the BlackBerry Bold, to mid-August.  Initially, the Bold was going to be released in July by AT&T, but there’s been talk that the BlackBerry Bold is having potential complications with battery life, software issues and overheating problems.

    RIM has yet to confirm any of these statements, but analysts are predicting that it could noticably set-back second quarter earning for the company.

LG Dare Brings the HeatThe LG Dare hits Verizon Wireless stores today and its touchscreen abilities have made this a highly anticipated phone.  It is quite noticeable that LG and Verizon took some time to think out the design and software for this feature-phone.  Here’s a quick pro/con list that will give you an overview of the LG Dare, so you can make your own opinion on whether this phone is up to the task of giving other smartphone’s a run for their money ….

    PRO CON 

      -  Feedback while typing -  Two phone menus

    -  Handwriting recognition -  Trouble with QWERTY keyboard 

    -  Video recording/editing -  HTML; but not very good

    -   3.2 megapixel camera -  Standard external design

    Race to Smartphone Supremacy

    I think this is an ongoing battle between all manufacturers and service providers.  While I think LG did a good job in creating the LG Dare, I believe it will be no competition for the Apple iPhone or the BlackBerry Bold.  The ultimate race will continue with BlackBerry and Apple and for the time being, Apple has pulled out ahead.

Go Green, Starting with your Cell Phone

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

Compared with the bulky, land-line phones our parents were used to, we are lucky to have the small, portable, ultra-productive and convenient cell phones that we use today. However, this shift creates a concern for any environmentally-conscious consumer. As technology improves, the life of a telephone has decreased. According to The Environmental Literacy Council, we replace our phones on average every year and a half, which creates a great deal of waste. The ELC also estimates that “forty percent of the lead in [the municipal waste] stream” can be attributed to consumer electronics. This holds obvious dangers to our health and to our environment. The big question here - how do we stay up-to-date with our technology and simultaneously keep a clean social conscience?

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Okay, so maybe reducing won’t be the most appealing option here, as many will be resistant to the idea of less frequently updating their cell. If you’re up to the task, however, and you can handle replacing only every two to three years, you can greatly reduce your impact - that’s half as many cell phones as the average user consumes.Cell Phone Recycling is available in most areas, and is a great, multi-faceted service. Cell phone recycling systems provides cell service to abused adults and children as an emergency-only line and to people awaiting organ transplants as a means of notification of a life saving donation. The reuse doesn’t stop here - cell phone recycling also provides cell phones to people in areas of the world where landlines are unavailable, or are too expensive to be practical.For phones that cannot be refurbished, cell phone recycling centers also use environmentally safe ways to recycle and dispose of these devices.

Buy Green

Apple recently received a solar power patent - could this mean sun-powered Apple products are on the way? Let’s hope so! Solar-powered electronics are a wonderful way to reduce your energy usage, and techies and tree-huggers alike would be satisfied by a green iPhone. While this might stay a fantasy for a while (many claim the design of the iPhone makes it unlikely candidate for solar-powered technology to be practical) other cell phone manufacturers already have environmentally-friendly products on the market. Chinese electronics manufacturer HTW have released their “Light-Energy Mobile Phone” that allows twenty-five minutes of talk time from just forty minutes of solar charging. LG has released the Cyon, which is made of materials not including lead or mercury, in accordance with Europe’s hazardous-waste-eliminating initiative, RoHS. Motorola appears to be joining the party, as well, with a recently passed patent for a screen that doubles as a solar panel. I suspect environmentally-responsible technology will be the next big trend, which means we should see more and more green options, resulting in competitive mainstream-market-level productivity.
