Customizing your cellphone is tons of fun since you are making it your own.

 

 

Everyone knows about cool ringtones you can create for your phone.  They even have “outrings” meaning, the caller can hear a customized “ring” if you want.

 

 

Another easy and cool way to customize your cell phone is to create a photo wallpaper for the background of your cell phone screen.  The only problem is resizing the photos, and getting them to your phone.

 

 

A new service I came across will do this for free, and supports all the major phones (they know the best photo sizes to resize any photo).  Read the rest of this entry »

Have you seen one yet? It’s so elusive, yet there are about a MILLION of them out there. And they’ll multiply quickly — up to 10 Million by the end of 2008! The Apple iPhone will surely be Time Magazine’s “Device of the Year” for 2007, which is responsible for more cell phone sales in a single day in the history of AT&T Wireless. Reports state that more than 3/4 million iPhones were sold on June 29th.

While you may know someone who knows someone that has one and you probably aren’t reading this on your new iPhone (unless you’re really are — in which, you should email a photo of yourself reading essistme.com on your iPhone to info[at)essistme.com and we’ll post it here!).

If you’re like one of millions that have been struck with iPhone envy, but still have another brand cell phone or smartphone in your hand, here’s one iPhone fix to simulate the iPhone experience on your phone.  In fact, with this simple short-term cure for iPhone envy people will ask if you have an iPhone in your pocket when you get your next call!

Jun 9th

I in love with the fact that my Blackjack kills the need for me to buy or carry around an iPod.  Just one less device to worry about, charge, carry, manage, etc.

 

But the 3 bluetooth headsets we have in the house don’t allow me to stream music from my Blackjack to the bluetooth headset wirelessly.  That’s because the Samsung Blackjack DOES support A2DP streaming music support via a bluetooth connection, but the headsets should too.  So much for buy all those el cheapo headsets.

 

I finally came across a bluetooth headset that is A2DP compatible, works like a charm and as an added super bonus, has a noise-canceling technology that’s simply AMAZING.  Of course it works with any bluetooth capable cell phone like the Blackberry, Razor, and Treo. Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve been evaluating the Yahoo!Music Unlimited mp3 Download service for my Samsung Blackjack recently and find that the $6/month for unlimited access to 2 million songs to be a pretty good value. The 150 radio stations is also pretty good to have. Having access to all these songs on my desktop + my cell phone is pretty convenient.

 

There are of course a bunch of other devices that’s compatible straight out of the box. Good news for owners of these devices, although most of them don’t know. Here’s the list of mp3 players, cell phones, media players, smart phones and other devices that are compatible: Read the rest of this entry »

Wall Street Journal Review: Samsung Blackjack Beats Out Treo 750

Walt Mossberg is one of the icons of “Personal Technology”.  I look forward to his column in the Wall Street Journal.  And boy, did I like his recent head-to-head review of the Samsung Blackjack vs. Treo 750.

 

There’s a bunch of advantages that Mossberg points out in his All Things Digital column reviewing the Samsung Blackjack and Treo 750, both on AT&T Wireless (formerly Cingular):

 

  • The Blackjack is 35% lighter than the Treo
  • The Blackjack is 36% smaller
  • It runs on a faster data network than the Treo 750
  • 38% better battery life
  • Full keyboard
  • The Blackjack is much cheaper (actually it’s now free) than the $399 Treo

 

He’s eager to see the highly anticipated iPhone, but clearly says that the Samsung Blackjack is the way to go.  But for now,  “Of these two phones, I prefer the BlackJack.” from his concluding paragraph sums it all up.
