Some of the Most Classic Phones and Their Features

The mobile phone market has changed beyond all recognition in the 25 or so years since the devices first went on general sale. With new handsets being released on a regular basis, encouraging users to always have the most up-to-date model, many older phones were consigned to the rubbish bin.

In recent years, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in these early models which are now seen as landmarks in the development of mobile phone technology. Such phones are increasingly prized by collectors.

Although it is not able to connect to modern mobile phone networks, a premium example of the Motorola 8000 series, the first handheld mobile phone launched in the UK back in 1985, can sell for up to £500. At 600 grams, the 8000 is more than four times heavier than a modern iPhone and 15 times heavier than the Modu, the lightest mobile phone currently available.

Classic Nokia Phones

Another highly desirable model is the Nokia 6310i. Launched in 2002, it was the first model from the company to include Bluetooth. Rugged, reliable and featuring a long battery life thanks to a power pack that formed almost the entire back panel of the handset, the 6310i was a huge success right from the start.

Aimed solidly at the business market, the phone soon became the dominant GSM device in the corporate world and remains popular to this day, despite being discontinued in 2005.

Collectors looking to get their hands on the iconic phone made famous in the 1999 action film The Matrix need to exercise caution. The model in the film was a Nokia 8110 but the filmmakers adapted the handset to include a spring-loaded cover for greater dramatic effect.

This feature was then incorporated into the similar-looking Nokia 7110, leading many to believe that this, not the 8110, is the handset featured in the film. Produced three years later, the 7110 is far more advanced and was the first mobile to allow rudimentary internet access thanks to the inclusion of a WAP browser.

Smartphone

Newer phones are also in demand from enthusiasts. The Nokia 6700 designation has been used on two separate models - the Slide and the Classic - of which the Classic is by far the most valuable. It features a 2.2-inch display screen and a microSD slot that allows the internal memory to be expanded to a maximum of 16GB.

With a 5MP camera with LED flash, the Classic is a great handset for those looking for an alternative to a touchscreen smartphone. This means that if you decide to sell your Nokia 6700 Classic you'll find plenty of willing buyers.

For many, the original Apple iPhone, launched in 2007, is the most iconic handset of the past 25 years. With a touchscreen interface, built-in Wi-Fi and ability to run apps, it took the mobile phone market into a completely new direction.

Daniel Harper is a seasoned computing and technology writer. He has been writing for websites and print media for over 15 years. His articles on the value of older mobile phones should be of enormous help if you decide to sell a classic Nokia phone to make a little extra money.

Why Technology is the Future of the Engineering Industry

Why Technology is the Future of the Engineering Industry

A major concern of any student even before entering a particular field is job outlook and growth. This is particularly important to students entering the science and math fields of study. These are extensive and complicated post secondary studies, so students want to be assured of job security once they finish with a degree in the electronics, computer software, network or electrical engineering fields. One area of potential growth for these types of engineers is in data communications or Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).

Outlook for Engineers in Data Communications

A favorable outlook is forecast for those majoring in electronics, computer software, electrical and network engineering fields. Many companies in data communications and VoIP technology will expand dramatically over the next 10 years. As specified by Jim Webster, the head of software technologies for Digium Inc in Huntsville, "The outlook for the data communications industry in the near future is revolutionary. VoIP is the telecommunications technology that will soon replace traditional business PBX telephone systems." Because of this upcoming replacement there will be a tremendous need for engineers specializing in different areas of technology.

This new communications method will bring innovative features and create a "sea of changes" in the way voice communications are organized, delivered and used by businesses and consumers around the world.

VoIP and the Need to Improve User Experience

Over the next few years, data communications companies will want to provide consistent service over the different platforms and devices, whether this is from the iPhone, Smartphone, tablet, web, or the standard telephone. They will require software and engineering skills that will help businesses respect privacy laws, but at the same time, track phone data, messages and emails in a highly efficient way for corporate managers.

Engineering Professionals will Code and Classify VoIP Data More Efficiently

VoIP will also require engineering professionals who can help devise better classification methods for large corporate needs. These classifications will need to track customer/business interaction across a range of different media platforms, both so the client can make appropriate operational decisions, and so the communications server can adapt innovative communications solutions for these needs.

Development of Better Communications Tools

Engineers will be required to develop and deploy easier to use communications tools for clients in the medical field, emergency response, hotel industry, sales industry or any other business area requiring the response to hundreds of calls from agents who need immediate responses to their efforts. This will include collecting data, filing forms, confirming decisions and acceptance of key processes using different media formats including: video, email, text messaging, voice and even social media communication.

Future Work in Unified Communications

This is another area where engineering skills are required. Unified Communications is relatively slow and needs to adapt to an expected 3 - click experience. The idea is that through new VoIP, session initiated protocol (SIP) companies using VoIP can use, support and even build applications that work more conveniently, allowing workers to access many VoIP resources in three clicks or less, regardless of the device they are using.

Proactive Communications

VoIP features and programming needs are set to expand with future data communication needs. Engineers are required to expand on electronic, electric and programming features in the data communications field, so businesses can proactively communicate with customers, even before a live agent comes on the line. The process works by allowing the automated communications system to guide and solicit required information from customers even before speaking to an agent in person.

Bottom Line

Because VoIP is overtaking the traditional telephone communications system, there are many innovative areas in which a new engineer can work and grow. The data communications field is made up of a variety of specialized areas of engineering, and this offers many future opportunities for engineering majors.

Windows 8 has the old start button has been replaced by new start Metro UI.

All Software's are not compatible with it

As we all know windows 8 is new and which is making a little difficult for him

to get compatible with all the software’s but I am sure Microsoft will be working

on it and this drawback will be overcome with the new updates of it.

This is Poll before the release of Window 8 Pro...

Poll

And from above result it was quite clear that Windows 8 will be going to rock and it

does.

2-->On every slide on the right hand side their is the start menu of windows 8
and if you click on it then you will be re-directed to the first slide i.e Metro UI

Windows 8 from Mohit Rajwani

It is one of the finest Operating System by Microsoft and we all know that their are

many people who are still loving Windows 7 but still i recommend to you that Download it
