Mobile Devices

There is a lot of emphasis these days on living an active, healthy lifestyle and there are a plethora of gadgets and devices to help us achieve that. One of them is the Jawbone UP wristband. It is not only an activity monitor but it also keeps track of your sleep patterns. And for good measure it can monitor your food intake and calculate the calories that you then have to walk off....
But there is a bit more to this wristband so let me "walk" you through it.

When our favourite distributor AlTech took on a new line of products from Pocketbook and sent me one of the top models, the Touch, I had to wonder where the market for e-book readers is going to take us in the coming years.
With the proliferation of large smartphones and tablets, some of them as cheap as dedicated e-book readers, will there still be a market for the likes of Pocketbook Touch?

I have never considered myself a fringe dweller except when it comes to mobile phone coverage, stuck at the fringes of Telstra's network. There are thousands of people in the same situation who have been relegated to second class citizenship in this 21st century when it comes to mobile connectivity.  For years you've been paying for missed calls, dropped calls not to speak of extremely poor wireless broadband.

You've tried all the solutions: rooftop antennas, blue tick phones, perhaps even looked at the promises made by repeater units....
Is there a real solution, one that is even sanctified by Telstra?

Well, we considered that we picked a good tablet last time, so let’s see how we fare with the Samsung Galaxy GT P1000N 16GB Next G and Wi Fi.

Once again, not Ice Cream Sandwich, but this one is a bit more suited to the “fairer sex” for hand span size. We deliberately went for the 7” because it is slightly narrower against the 7.7”and we believe that these two tablets will cater nicely for male or female alike.
