The Samsung S5570 Galaxy Mini Smartphone was developed for the international GSM/Edge/GPRS market. It is a quad-band device, operating in the 800, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz bands, supported in the US by T-Mobile and AT&T, as well as the higher-speed ranges, supported at 7.2 Mbps, supporting HSPDA in the 900 and 2100 MHz bands.

The S5570 is small enough to fit in one’s hand easily, measuring only 4.03 by 2.4 by 0.4 inches and weighing about 4 ounces so it is quite convenient to use. For its mini-size, though, it is quite a capable smartphone as it uses the Android operating system and this gives one access more than 200,000 apps (up to 600,000 with some versions of the operating system), so one can customize it to meet one’s specific needs.

It offers several built-in apps when purchased, such as access to Google phone, YouTube, Google mail and Google Talk (Gtalk) as well as Google’s social hub (Google released Google+, its own social networking tool, however, using the right app one can access Facebook and Twitter and follow the other major sites). For the most part, one will find that these apps will do quite nicely, however, one can access other apps to fine-tune the mini-sized smartphone to a greater degree.

Startup internal memory is limited to 348 MB, but it the S5570 also offers the ability to upgrade to up to 16 GB of hot-swappable memory with, however, one must remember that every time you upgrade smartphone it does take away from the amount of memory available for other options.

The S5570 is Internet-ready with access to WiFi standard 802.11 b/g/n. This means that not only can one use it at home with an older (b/g) router, but one can also find public hotspots using the N standard. It is also compatible with Bluetooth 2.1 A2DP so that one can sync other devices to it or one can sync it to another device.

The QVGA 320 by 240 resolution gives one a rich, vivid display that is position sensitive. Like other Samsung’s it relies on three gyros to sync up its position relative to one’s hand orientation so that if you are viewing it in portrait and swing it 90 degrees to use it in landscape mode the screen understands and updates instantly.

The key to the S5570, as with all Android-capable devices, is the wide and rich variety of apps available with which one can customize their smartphone. Since the S5570 has GPS (A-GPS) built-in, obtaining the right Google Map app or Google Earth app can turn your mini-sized smartphone into a navigation device and since it offers a 3.5 mm standard audio output, one should be able to find an audio stream through which you can hear a variety of music. Also, with the right app installed one should be able to easily find streaming video content. Remember that if one uses this for streaming video it may not offer all of the rich blacks and colors due to its limited resolution.

Still the 3-inch screen is a perfect fit for this mini-sized smartphone. With the universe of Android-based apps available you can quickly set up the S5570 with an app that delivers a mini-sized QWERTY-like keyboard that is better for single-finger typing that touch typing, though, it still speeds texting and emails. And with 16 GB of hot-swappable microSD memory capability you can easily share images you take directly with other larger devices or via the Internet.

With the exception of the screen size – the Samsung’s superAMOLED Plus touchscreen is slightly larger than the iPhone 4S, but not much – they are for all intents and purposes the same pieces of hardware. For example, the Samsung uses a dual-core 1GHz processor with software that has been optimized to used each processor, while the iPhone 4S offers the same style of Apple-centric dual-core processor whose operating system software has been optimized, as well.

Indeed, the systems are so close that Apple has opted to go to court to try and enjoin Samsung from using the technology it has developed for the I9100 Galaxy S II. The case is still in process, so there has been no decision yet. For example, both can use up at least 32 GB of memory so there’s plenty of storage available for play lists and other items such as calendars and to-do lists.

The key differences, though, are at the software, not hardware level. The Samsung uses the Android 3.1 operating system to run its applications, while the Apple iPhone 4S locks you into its iOS 5. And, while Android can claim up to 300,000 applications developed for its Google-backed software, Apple does claim that iOS has about 500,000 applications developed for the system.

Where the Samsung has a distinct advantage over the iPhone is that any app developed for the Galaxy S II is free, while you must go to Apple’s app store and purchase the applications you need. This is nothing new to the Apple-centric world that is used to paying for tunes, applications and other upgrades. Apple has had its iTunes store for some time, as it has had its App store as well. And, Apple does have an iTools branch of the store, as well.

If you are used to living in Apple’s store-driven world, then this is no shocker, but if you are coming out of an Apple and into a free Samsung, then you will find that there’s a universe of applications software out there that doesn’t have to cost you anything to purchase. Your just download the app, install it and you are off.

Perhaps the biggest difference – one that does put the iPhone 4S well ahead of Samsung’s Galaxy – is the Apple Siri personal assistant software. In looking at it closely, you will find that it does give your iPhone a real workout as most of the applications that are installed in the phone are involved in making Siri work.

For example, Siri is voice-driven. In other words, if you tell it to do something, it will not only respond to you but you but when the request is achieved, Siri will announce it. That’s not all, though, Siri offers you the ability to turn spoken words into text, which is a nice piece of work. And, it will go on to set your calendar, remember your to-do list, if you have programmed it beforehand and more.

In other words, Siri is truly a digital analog to a real administrative assistant, all contained in your iPhone 4S.

That’s not to say there are not pieces of Siri-like software apps available for the Galaxy because among the 200,000 to 300,000 – and growing – number of apps available, there are bound to be text-to-speech; calendars-to-text, and more available. It’s just that they don’t have an umbrella piece of software over them.

As for the rest of the differences between the iPhone 4S and the Samsung, you would have to use a micrometer to find any real difference. The screen resolutions are about the same as are the camera resolutions and the 1080p native high-definition native resolution are the same on both phones.

The key difference is the “personal assistant” Siri. It’s a big one, but, as noted, who knows how long it will be before someone finds a way to make a similar assistant for the Samsung.

The Motorola EX115 Dual SIM unlocked phone is a hybrid phone that bridges the era of SIM-based devices that relied on small, insertable, programmable SIM cards for their functionality and today’s smartphones that used dual-core processors and the Android or proprietary operating systems and memory to deliver their functionality.

Interestingly, while Motorola’s older phones, based on SIM technology, were designed to work with CDMA-style networks, such as those used by Sprint/Nextel, the EX115 has been designed to work with the GSM network offered by T-Mobile and AT&T. As such, it is a quad-band phone, designed to operate in the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.

The near-smartphone EX115, which can support up to 32 GB of memory, uses SIM memory dual-SIM technology. SIM technology embeds phone books and other phone information on small, removable electronic cards, about the size of a dime that easily slide into and out of the phone.

Using this technology is interesting in the EX115. When a call (text or email) is received, it activates one SIM, while the other remains active awaiting another call. If a call is received, and you have either call-waiting or voicemail activated, the caller or texter is automatically diverted to the second SIM and an alert is issued either with a different ring tone. Interestingly, one can program individual ring tones for each SIM, while, at the same time, one can also program each number in a phonebook, the basic building block of the SIM technology, with a separate ring tone.

The EX115 comes preloaded with social networking capability as it has apps loaded to interface with Facebook or YouTube. It also includes a calendar feature, as well as various reminders and alarms that you can program to reminder yourself when you have an appointment scheduled or if an event is planned.

It features a small 2.3-inch screen, although it is 3.76 inches long. More than half of the front face is taken up by a full QWERTY-style keyboard that makes email and texting easier, although the tiny keys do not lend themselves to touch-typing. One can easily and quickly type an email with a couple few fingertaps on real keys.

It also features a fixed focus 3.15MP rear camera and the ability to take and upload images to the Internet through its cell connection. (This is, still, after all, a hybrid-style phone and does not have WiFi capability, instead, relying on its cell connectivity to handle the job). Interestingly, despite all of the technology that has raised the density of digital photography to 18+ MP, if you want to view a standard image on the Internet, 3.15 MP is all that you need for reasonable detail. The 2.3-inch screen, by the way, delivers an excellent, if small image.

The EX115 allows a little more than two hours of talk time, while its standby capability is about 240 hours from its lithium ion batteries. It is a small, lightweight unit at 3.76 by 1.81 by 0.59 inches and 3.68 ounces. It is also a reminder that though a technology may be somewhat older, it can still work, despite being passed in the fast lane of digital communication by smarter phones.

The Blackberry 9700 Bold Smartphone, offered by RIM, is a pioneering smartphone as it was introduced about two years ago. Operating on the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands in GSM/EDGE mode and now offering access to 3G/HSPDA/UMTS capability on the 850, 900, 1700, 1900 and 2100 MHz segments, RIM has broadened the ability of one to the ISP of one’s choice. As long as the ISP’s network supports these operating modes, one can use the Bold and its long-list of features.

Network-capable, the Bold is compatible with the 802.11 b/g WiFi modes. These modes will allow the Bold to interface with many public hotspots that offer 802.11 g capability, while the older b mode will allow one to use the Bold with an older home router that may support the b/g standard. This gives one the opportunity to use the Bold directly with one’s home network. Or, if one has a Bluetooth-capable desktop, one can sync the Bold to the desktop and use this capability to update files, video or music.

Contrary to the smartphone market which seems to be rushing headlong into the open-architecture of the Android operating system, RIM still maintains tight control over the Bold by using a proprietary 528 MHz ARM processor and RIM’s Blackberry 5.0 operating system. To its credit, RIM does make API (programmable interface) ability available to users who can then write their own apps to run under the Blackberry operating system and there is even a RIM-sponsored app that allows users to connect to Android devices, so one is not totally locked into RIM’s proprietary architecture. However, this is an issue that one must know before exploring the highly capable Bold.

The Bold supports only 256 MB of onboard flash memory, however, a microSD card interface allows one to expand the amount of memory available to 32 GB. One will find that this is the type of memory needed if one is going to use the video imaging capability of the 3.2 MP autofocus camera with which the Bold is equipped. With this amount of memory onboard, one can also write or edit documents from the built-in QWERTY-style keyboard that sits below the 2.44-inch high-resolution screen. The TFT screen supports up to 65,000 colors. The Bold’s video modes include DivX/WMV/XviD/3gp, while its audio mode supports MP3/WMA/AAC+, all major sound modes. One will find it plays up to 35 hours of audio.

The central feature of the Bold is its laptop-derived touchpad. One will find that if one uses a laptop and its touchpad than navigating the Bold’s variety of preinstalled applications and menus is done with just a slid of the index finger and a tap. It is quite easy and intuitive to use. In addition, the keyboard allows easy access to email and texting because the keys, while not large enough for touch-typing, are big enough to allow one to use fairly speedy two or three-finger keying. The key action is quite positive.

The Bold is preloaded with a Word, Excel, PowerPoint, a PDF file viewer and offers excellent email access to one’s home or corporate network device. RIM does maintain its own server center for the Blackberry network which now boasts up to 70 million users worldwide, as well as access to many apps that work with the Blackberry. The Blackberry Bold, which was once the top of RIM’s line, but which has been joined by other compatible Blackberry devices offers up to 480 hours of standby time.

Altogether, one will find it easy to edit files, upload them and share them with others, as well as take either single images and look at them for instant review on the 480 by 360 screen. The screen offers rich color saturation and excellent contrast.

The Bold is not a heavyweight device, although it’s images make it look like it is. It is 4.3 inches deep by 2.41 inches wide and.6 inches thick and weighs about 4.8 ounces. If one is looking for a quality and reasonably priced smartphone then the Bold is well worth a look.

The Motorola EX128 Unlocked Phone is neither an example of a hybrid-style phone that has some features of more modern smartphones and yet relies on SIM technology to function.

Using the EX128, one has to insert a pair of SIMs into special slots in the phone. Instead of using onboard memory and a microprocessor to drive the phone, the SIMs handle all of the work. The model that is used is that of a phonebook. Each SIM is individually addressable so that if one is calling on one SIM and the phone receives a call, the other SIM activates and directs the call to either call-waiting, if one has that feature installed or to voicemail.

There is a slot available for an 8GB microSD memory card, but that is used for items such as emails, texts or memos one receives or places. The numbers that are called are stored on the SIM. Indeed, a call history is also stored on the SIM. The EX128 can store up to 1,000 phone numbers.

Using Java as its operating system, the EX128 has several apps preinstalled. The apps include a phonebook, memo pad and access to email or texting. One app opens a small QWERTY-style keyboard at the bottom of the 3.2-inch high-resolution screen whose resolution is 240 by 400. This display delivers a deep range of colors and its contrast is excellent. One will find the blacks are surprisingly rich when using this display.

The EX128′s touchscreen keyboard features keys that are on the small side, though, and one will find the need to use a stylus to text or send emails because the keys are not large. This means that one’s text input will be slowed, although it does support predictive text input which means that it studies one’s text inputs and anticipates the completed word which can speed things up, a bit, as well. Apps are also built in that allow one to send SMS or MMS texts and to receive and send emails.

The EX128 is equipped with an FM stereo radio that recognizes the RDS system. RDS is a Radio Directory Service that takes information from the radio station tuned in and displays it on screen. The information, for example, ranges from type of station to music played. The sound output one will find is more than reasonable from a 4.2 inch by 2.2 inch by 0.5 inch device that weighs only 3.2 ounces. Its light weight works to one’s advantage if you spend hours on the phone. It also includes a voice memo app, while supporting audio that can be loaded from the memory card. Audio support includes MP3, WAV and eAAC+.

That phone time is limited to three hours as the EX128 will operate for three hours before it needs a charge, however, there is a micro-USB 2.0 port that allows one to charge the lithium-ion battery rapidly.

The EX128 is a quad-band phone that operates on the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz frequency bands. It is compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile’s GSM system, as well as GPRS and EDGE. It is not compatible with CDMA systems offered by Verizon, Alltell and Sprint.

It also supports the Bluetooth standard so you can sync the phone with other Bluetooth devices or, if you have a PC equipped with Bluetooth, you can sync your available apps to the PC.

The EX128 is, as noted, a hybrid phone. It is a more than reasonable alternative to a far more expensive smartphone with its extensive feature base, if one does not need all of the features. Its light weight and speed, as well as its ability to store phonebooks independent of memory is considered a plus by many people.

The bottom line is the EX128 is a fine example of a hybrid phone that offers some functionality for one who needs a lightweight phone primarily for calling, emailing and texting.

Managing directory enquiry listing

There are three categories for listing landlines which determine how they can be accessed:
- Directory Entry (DE) This means people are listed in printed phone books and their numbers are available online and via directory enquiry phone services. Numbers can also be sold to businesses and organisations unless these have been registered with the Telephone Preference Service.

- Ex-Directory (XD) A number is not listed in the phone book and will not be available via voice services to individuals or companies. Nor can it be sold for telemarketing.

- The third category is called Directory Enquiry Request Only (DQR). While numbers might not be listed in printed directories, these are available to third-parties via directories people phone and may also be rented out. This is why some people who think they are ex-directory still get calls they are not expecting.

People can take steps to ensure that their telephone details are accessed as they want them to be. For landlines, check and change the directory entry by doing the following:

- If the service provider is BT, call:
0800 800 150 for RESIDENTIAL NUMBERS
0800 800 152 for BUSINESS NUMBERS

- For all other service providers, call them direct and get them to make any required changes. They will then forward new details to OSIS, the central database, and instructions will be passed on to all directory enquiry service providers.

Because OSIS contains few mobile phone numbers, any directory enquiry service focussed on mobile listings will not get their data in this way. Such services are more likely to obtain mobile phone numbers from the other sources. So people should contact the directory enquiry service concerned to check their status and make any changes.

In the case of 118 800, people can check their status free of charge by searching for themselves on the website. People can become ex-directory here too. The ex-directory listing takes effect within 9 days.

Preventing unwanted sales calls

People have three options for preventing unwanted sales calls

Simply register all phone numbers with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) which is the UK direct marketing industry’s telephone opt-out service. By registering a number with the TPS people indicate that they do not wish the number – landline or mobile – to be used by companies wishing to make marketing calls, even if the number remains in directories. Companies seeking to make marketing calls are regularly required to screen the numbers they wish to call against the list of numbers in the TPS. If companies or not-for-profit organisations then phone people out of the blue using a number they have registered on the TPS and try to sell things, they are in breach of the rules. Most reputable organisations undertaking telephone marketing now comply.
Registering with the TPS should mean the calls cease. However where an overseas company is making calls on their own behalf to the UK, they avoid UK regulation and often ignore the TPS. So people may still receive such calls. But any other organisation making unsolicited calls when people are registered with the TPS is in breach of the rules and people should complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s independent regulator set up to protect the way their personal information is used. To register with the TPS, visit www.mpsonline.org.uk/tps or call 0845 070 07 07. Once people have registered it can take up to 28 days for the registration.
Compliance with the TPS is supervised by the Information Commissioner’s Office. If people have a complaint about a company, they can get in touch with the ICO via www.ico.gov.uk
Some people complain of ‘silent calls’ where the phone rings, they pick it up and they then hear only silence. These calls are generated by the use of ‘automated diallers’. When these are incorrectly set, more numbers are dialled than there are operators available to take the calls. If the purpose of the call was to sell something, then registering on the TPS will reduce these. However companies use automated diallers for things such as debt collection and market research, and the TPS is unable to reduce these calls.
To reduce the number of silent calls people get, they can register with the Silent Callgard Service at www.ukdatait.co.uk or by calling 0870 444 3969.

People can stop calls from selected companies

Many people don’t want to stop calls from all companies as they can often attract their attention to good offers they’d otherwise not know about, such as cheaper mobile phone packages, beneficial insurance deals or holiday discounts. But if they’re continually being bothered by, for instance, a specific kitchen supplier when people’re very happy with the kitchen they already have, then people may choose to stop that particular company from bothering them. When they call, don’t just hang up – ask that the number be removed from their database. Also ask when that request will take effect; it may take them a few weeks to process it. Make sure to get the name of the company responsible for the call so that a complaint can be lodged with the ICO should the calls continue.

People can choose to screen or block calls

Telephone companies generally offer services to help people screen or block incoming calls. For example, by seeing the number of the incoming call displayed on their phone people can choose not to answer calls from numbers they don’t recognise. Phone companies may let people block calls from certain numbers or all calls from withheld numbers. Contact phone companies for the options available.
