Techie Tuesday: A Retro Cell Phone Attachment
I finally broke down and bought a BlackBerry. I love that I can easily check my emails on the go, but honestly, I find the brick of a phone that is the Curve 8900 a little cumbersome when it comes to actually talking on it. However, I believe I found a solution: the Yubz Retro Handset.
The handset looks and feels like a landline phone's handset, but plugs directly into my BlackBerry for easy talking (when ordering the handset you indicate what type of mobile phone you have). For people that use internet phone services, like Skype, there is also a USB attachment that plugs directly into your computer.
To test it out, I decided to call my mom since we usually talk for close to an hour when we get a chance to. Not only was it comfortable to use, the sound was great on both ends of the line. I was even able to update my BlackBerry contact list while still talking to my mom (she had to give me a new number for my brother). It's amazing how something so simple can make such a difference.

Almost half of Britons feel "unpopular and lonely" without daily SMS
According to Right Mobile Phone research conducted among 3,138 Britons, people’s self esteem is ruled by their mobile phones.
Thus, Right Mobile Phone found 80% of responded cited that not receiving a reply to a text message damages their mood, while 41% said that without a daily texting they felt "unpopular and lonely".
While a full 82% of polled said they are looking forward to being given a ring by their partners and loved ones, 19% purposefully duck calls from their parents.
18% admit to have faked receiving a phone call or text message.
The study also unveils some interesting facts about LOLing. 9% of respondents said they have actually laughed out loud at anything they've ever been sent via text, even though 61% said they regularly use the term LOL while texting.
Furthermore, none claim to have either literally rolled on the floor laughing or laughed their ass off, despite using the corresponding acronyms. Although not covered in the survey, it can be assumed a similarly low number of British subjects has ever actually boarded a ROFLCOPTER or taken a merry twirl on their LOLLERSKATES.
