HTC Tilt (TYTN II) PDA Smartphone with 3MP Camera, 3G, Wi-Fi, MP3/Video Player, MicroSD Slot--U.S. Version for AT&T Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just upgraded to an iPhone. I had the tilt device for two years, it was a good phone. I enjoyed being on the 3G network. I also used it to tether as a modem for my laptop, no issues there, great for visiting clients at Starbucks and not having to pay for internet. Really nice not having to fumble around with setup on that tethering. I used to watch youtube via player application, before youtube finally made their own plugin. I would check out Fifth Gear, top gear, etc episodes during my lunch hour, it was good fun, espcially with the tilt screen while I was eating. After two years the battery needed replacing, I never did, but it sure needed a new one. The charge was only lasting a couple hours. I dropped it twice, and had the screen replaced once for $100. The time the screen needed replacing it was thrown from the second story of my apartment, the phone is pretty durable. Most phones would have smashed to pieces.
What can it do that an iPhone can't you ask?
* Tether as a modem
* Internet Access with AT&T via 3G for $20/month NOT $30 like on the iphone
* Full keyboard
* SMS messaging, (add pictures to text msgs)
* Run office applications (word, powerpoint, etc)
* Screen tilt
* Create ringtones on the fly by choosing a song and right clicking (sweet)
* No I-Tunes or Qucktime malware
What does an iPhone do better?
* Larger screen
* Better battery life
* Backlight auto adjusts brightness, saves battery
* Shuts off faster, no buttons on front that accidentally turn it on
* Looks better (impress your friends, the tilt looked like a brick)
* Better support if/wehn it breaks, at least implied
* More applications
* Larger storage up to 32gb with 3GS
* Ipod / music work much better, easier to use etc
* Voicemail stores on the device
* GPS device with compass can tell you which way to turn not just your location
* Thinner, lighter
All in all I am planning on keeping the iPhone after having the tilt for 2 years. I still love the tilt though... nothing wrong with that phone at all.

Fuzion Mobile SIM Card for Prepaid Wireless Plans Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am actually new to the world of prepaid phone service and was quite pleased with how easy it was for me to do this whole process online and at amazon... I do most of my shopping online so I was curious to see how this process would work.. I already owned my own phone and was just done with the high monthly bill... I ordered my SIM card and starter kit from amazon and a couple of days later I received it in the mail.... Called the number... Someone actually answered and about 10 minutes later I was in their system and I was even able to keep my number... Thanks Fuzion and Amazon... : )

ISY-99i INSTEON Enabled Home Automation Controller Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Note: When ordering this item, you will also need a power supply and a powerline modem. Most any DC wallwort will do. Check the spec on-line.
The ISY-99i makes complex lighting control relatively easy. Chances are, if you understand what this product is for, you can figure out how to program it. I have used other programable controllers in the past that required hundreds of lines of code, countless variables and subroutines, and weeks of debugging and tinkering. A combination of Insteon and the ISY-99i makes a much simpler and more reliable system.
You begin by defining a few "scenes" - such as "movie time", "outdoor party", "welcome home", each setting a group of lights to a given brightness level/on/off etc. You then decide which button or buttons will activate each scene. This is much simpler than the controllers/responders concept that Smarthome uses. Programing has fairly well executed if/and/or/then/else functions, but no variables, and no endless lines of code, nor are they really needed. Each if/then is a self contained/named program, so it is easy to tweak and debug. It does sometimes take some creative thinking to get things to work just the way you want, but my hundreds of lines of code are now replaced by about 20 well written if/then conditionals and about 17 scenes.
The ISY can discover existing links, and manages all of the device linking for you, but using the "restore device" function liberally makes sure each device has the links you want, and none you don't. You can also program it from anywhere, which is more handy than you might imagine.
Smarthome software never did justice to the potential of Insteon hardware. The ISY finally brings out that potential, without relying on shareware that may someday become unavailable, or leaving you computer on all the time. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the UI is not pretty looking, and linking in the devices is not always in sync with the controller.
