SciPhone I68+ Review

There's no doubt a lot of phones being called a "SciPhone" right now.  But probably the best known of the bunch is the i68.  Most people realize that there is a newer version with upgraded firmware but I'm not sure how many people know that this version is called the i68+ or the plus.  So, in the following article, I'll review this newer version and tell you if it is all that different from the original version.

The New Firmware: Probably the biggest upgrade on the plus model is the new firmware.  This new version is supposed to lack some of the bugs that were supposedly on the original 68. And, it is said to have more of a "multi touch" interface rather than the "flow touch" interface.  This sounds like a small distinction, I know, but the "multi touch" is supposed to allow for many fewer steps to get to the same place because you can click on multiple areas of the screen to go directly to a place or screen which would have taken several clicks before.

Also, the new firmware adds in the three page menu.  In this sense, I find the i68+ to be a whole lot like the i9 3G.  This means that you have more options in regards to which applications you have one touch access to on the welcome screen.  So, you no longer have to go into the Java screen or into the web browser and search around that way.

There are also small upgrades to the camera and media player, but these are not as noticeable as the "multi touch" upgrade.

Overall Performance On The i68+:  If you've used or seen any of the CECT phones, then you have a pretty good idea of what this phone is like.  The touch screen is quite responsive and the resolution quality is quite good.  This phone has all of the features that are almost always in the CECT line up, like: web browsing; dual sim slots; Bluetooth; Java; MP3 / MP4; digital camera and web cam; the shake and tilt feature; FM radio; ebook reader; etc.  

In that sense, the stand by features aren't new.  It's a nice phone that gives a user experience that's pretty similar to the iPhone.  The battery holds a charge for longer than you would expect.  The sound quality on the music and move player is loud and clear.  Being able to download and use Java applications is nice.  But, is it worth it to buy this new phone if you already own the original SciPhone? Maybe and maybe not.  That really depends on how much you want the additional icon pages. Both are great phones with high customer satisfaction and both are priced right.  You really should never spend more than $100 (and that's at the very high end) on these phones, including the accessories and even if you have 8GB of memory. 

It's also nice that you aren't bound to a contact or carrier.  As always, these phones work with any GSM sim card, including pre paid options like GoPhone.  This allows you to get the features without paying the high price for them.  And, the availability of two sim slots gives you more flexibility in terms of which carrier (and features) that you are using and paying for.

The Nike Air Max Torch 5 Review

You have probably heard about the amazing Nike Air Max Torch 5 running shoe. You have heard maybe in passing how good it is and very little more. For those of you who want more information, then take a look at our review of this great sneaker, that we believe is one of the best available.

In my search for a great running shoe, one name kept coming up, The Nike Air Max Torch 5. People kept saying that it was a comfortable running shoe, it wasn't too expensive and provided that support and performance that I needed on my runs. After getting some recommendations, I made the plunge and purchased the shoe. Right after putting them on, I could tell that I had made an excellent decision. The shoes were very comfortable and I could tell that they would help me greatly on my runs. It was stable, and offered the performance I needed. It also looks very good and it was nice to have a great looking pair of shoes on your feet.

The shoe is very light weight and this is courtesy of a breathable mesh upper. In the midsole of the shoe is made out of the comfortable and lightweight, Phylon. This material added to the overall comfort of the show as it provided great cushioning. Another part of the shoe that aided with the comfort was the Air Max unit that could be found in the heel. The shoe also had great traction and durability as a result of a good rubber outsole. Finally I love the fact that the shoe was Nike+ ready. This means I could time my results and much more.

The Nike Air Max Torch 5 was an excellent purchase. I run every day in them and I will by buying a couple more once these wear out. They are comfortable, light, stable and much more, all that is needed in a running shoe. I do not regret my purchase one bit and you will not either.

Quick Review of the Nike Air Max Torch 4

When it comes to amazing running shoes, the Nike Air Max Torch 4 is one of the best available. The shoe functions extremely well and it is considered by many to be one of the better running sneakers on the market. For those of you who want more detailed information on this shoe, please take the time to read our review.

The Nike Air Max Torch 4 is a great running shoe. It is extremely stylish, roomy, comfortable and offers great performance. I decided to choose this shoe based on reviews I had read about on the internet. Many of those reviews pointed to the fact that the Torch series of shoes from Nike were comfortable shoes and most people seemed to love them. Based on that information I purchased my first pair and I have been happy ever since.

The comfort level in the Nike Air Max Torch 4 cannot be described. The shoe fits so well, I have never worn a pair of shoes like this before in my life. They were extremely lightweight and my feet didn't have that claustrophobic feeling, due to the fact that the material to make the show was breathable. The air bubble in the back was excellent and this was the source of the comfort for my feet. It looks great at the back of the shoe as it is visible. Another thing that I like about the shoe was that it had excellent traction and grip. This proved to be very important, especially when running on slippery and uneven terrain.

So my final analysis of the Nike Air Max Torch 4 is that you get a shoe that will definitely become a favorite of yours. If you are seeking a lightweight, comfortable and high performance shoe, then this is what you need. I have no regrets with my purchase and I can say that I am thoroughly pleased with what the shoe has offered me.

Omron Digital Pedometer Review

One of the most popular pedometers on the market today is the Omron Digital Pedometer. Of the Omron Pedometer Range the Omron HJ 112 Digital Pedometer is by far the most sought after. The best way to source information on a Pedometer before buying one is to read what other people who have purchased one already have to say about the device.

Shelley, who purchased the Omron Digital Pedometer on the 23rd of January, 2008 says she bought it because it was rated number one in the consumer reports she read. With just four big buttons on the front, it is very easy to use and is very light. She said that she could wear it on her belt, in her pocket or in her purse and it still accurately measured the steps. She highly recommends it to anyone who wishes to lose weight and enjoyed the fact that it stored the previous day's number of steps which enabled her to set a goal for herself by attempting to beat the previous day's record.

Samuel from Kenosha says he has been attached to pedometers for a couple of years now, he said that he has gone through at least 12 pedometers and has had numerous problems with them. His goal was to take 10,000 steps in a day and having seen the Omron digital Pedometer at Walgreen's he thought he would give it a try. Like Shelley, Samuel also was amazed by the Omron's sensitivity as he to could wear it not only on his belt but in his pocket to.

Mannish who also purchased the Omron Digital Pedometer made a note that the batteries seemed to last for about six months, he says that on all the pedometers which he has used this one he has used for the longest and is currently managing to fit in 100,000 steps in a week. Once again he also enjoys the fact that he can just put in his pocket and use it discreetly.

It is very difficult to find a review of the Omron Digital Pedometer which is negative apart from some very small minor problems such as that it needs a screwdriver to replace the battery. The Omron Digital Pedometer seems to be the ideal Pedometer if one is serious about measuring their daily steps accurately.
