When your compny provides you with a cell phone

I am a victim too. All the beneficial companies, one of the benefits is to give to their employees mobile phones. In first sight seems great. But think deeper. Giving you the company a top-price mobile phone makes you slave and workaholic. Cheking your e-mails time after time, sending replies through your fascinate blackberry, catch in up in various chat conversations via mobile application is not what the civilized employee wants from a cell phone!

Android-powered Dell Smoke To Be Small, Inexpensive

Dell is reportedly working on a slender, lightweight and inexpensive smartphone running Google's Android OS. The Dell Smoke will have a design similar to the Palm Pixi, with a small keyboard fixed below its QVGA touchscreen.
The model is supposedly aimed at business users who exchange frequent emails and also want access to their documents when on the go.

The smartphone will be able to access both consumer and enterprise email systems, come with a highly-functional web browser, and include Adobe Flash Player 10. It will also include software to edit Microsoft Office documents and view PDFs.

Wireless and MoreThe Smoke will allegedly be a quad-band GSM phone with tri-band 3G (14.4 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA). In addition, it will have Wi-Fi (b/g), Bluetooth 2.1, and a GPS receiver.
Other items on the leaked specifications list include a 5-megapixel auto-focus camera, 1170 mAh battery, microSD memory card slot, accelerometer, compass and a proximity sensor.

The price and quality thing

In now days, we must accept one common fact. That is, mobile phones can do a lot of thing than just calling your friend or sending sms. So, how much the diversification costs for the new mobile era? In my opinion, comparing the new gadget netbook and the other gadget smartphone, I could say it’s by far expensive a smartphone in our days.

But if so, why Apple want to compete kindle with iPad? Why an iPad costs as a laptop’s price?

Concluding, the price and quality thing is as simple as that! We pay the functions of a gadget including the brand name!
