Where to buy Unlocked Cell Phones

By Chip Chick

May 12th, 2005

Nokia_6230i_1Alot of people have been writing in asking about where to buy the
phones I’ve posted about. While a lot of these phones aren’t available
for sale yet, I thought I’d post a list of my favorite online cell
phone retailers.
Expansys.com
MyWorldPhone.com
MobilePlanet.com
Mobilebee.com (Has the sexy Nokia 8800 if you are willing to pay the price.)
GSMPhoneSource.com
I’ve bought from most of these places and have had good experiences with them.
Alternatively there’s always Ebay if your looking for hard to find phones.
Anyone else have a place to recommend?

Vertu Ascent Pink Addition

By Chip Chick

May 11th, 2005

19w36xca9za 2005 05 10 Vertu Ascent Pink AdditionVertu is kinda like the Bentley of cell phones. If you have roughly 8 grand to spend on one – so that you can have a phone with ruby keys, then good for you. Though you’re probaly better off not getting one at all, some people over at HowardForums haven’t been to happy with their Vertu purchase. Anyway, Vertu just announced that their going to have a pink edition of their Ascent phone that will come "with soft pink backlighting that adds a touch of femininity to the sapphire crystal screen." Oooh and it’ll be packaged with a pink holster, and will come in "special pink packaging". You can place this phone in your purse next to your ipod inside the $1800 ipod love case. I’m rolling my eyes as I type. (Source: Esato)

01311sz1i9527200 Marina Computer HandbagTimbuk2 has a great selection of colorful laptop bags. PC Magazine has a recent review of their Marina Computer Handbag which retails for $80, comes in red, orange, green, blue or black, has comfortable shoulder straps, a water proof bottom, pockets for extra gadgets, and fits most 15 inch notebooks. Aside from the Marina Handbag, Timbuk2 also has some other great bags including their Laptop Zip Case which has more of a corporate look going for it. They also have a line of colorful quilted laptop sleeves. What I love about Timbuk2’s bags is that each of their bags has lots of colors for you to choose from.
