The contest began March 12, 2007 and ran through April 30th, 2007.  Jeff's review was selected randomly out of many approved during that time period.  We would like to thank everyone who submitted a review and congratulate Jeff on behalf of PhoneDog and Samsung we are looking forward to our next special offer.

Jeff's RAZR V3c Review: 

Pros: Thin & Phat all at the same time - It'd cut like a knife through butta

Cons: Sucks the life outta the battery - it's a little wobbly like a booble head on it's hinge after a year

Summary: Vowels are great on Wheel of Fortune - but Motorola struck it rich by leaving them out of the RAZR. The rest of the line just doesn't have the same panache as the original.

This is a great little phone, thin light and totally phat. The keys are great for playing usa today sudoku to my heart's content and the display is great for searching for my favorite wildkittens scores on yahoo.

Really, to tell you the truth. I like it, but I'm looking to replace it with the U740 and it's full keyboard action. I donno about the small number keys tho, bro. 

You've got until April 30, 2007 to enter to win a u740.  All you have to do is post a 30 word or longer review of your current cell phone.  Get the full details here.

CONS
"p" button hard to hit, internal memory low for most internet navigation, you must get more memory via micro flashcard (2GB) if you want to store videos, must have compatible data cable with drivers to sync to pc.

SUMMARY
I wish I would have spent the 50 bucks on the data cable and software, I would be using my phne as a modem now and I would shut down my dsl, (I work nights so I have unlimited mins...)]]>http://www.phonedog.com/cell-phone-research/samsung-sch-u740.aspx?utm_source=Rss&utm_medium=CellPhone_samsung-sch-u740&utm_campaign=PhoneDog4/6/2007 9:34:19 PM

The personal computer caught on first as a tool for creating and editing documents (word processing, desktop publishing, etc.), but really took off as a communications device with the spread of the Internet.  Cell phones are following something of an inverted path, having started out as "mere" mobile phones and now turning into portable mini-computers.  As handset capabilities increase and mobile broadband connections reach faster speeds, clever software and service providers should seek out new ways to connect, entice, and entertain us wherever we are.

To quote from EA Mobile's press release:

"As the world flattens, a widening demographic of mobile consumers look to their mobile devices as a source for entertainment.  EA Mobile is entering the multiplayer gaming space at just the right time, as our data indicates that mobile games consumption is on an upswing, with 9.1 percent of U.S. mobile subscribers reporting they played a downloaded game in January. EA Mobile's leading mobile games Tetris and Bejeweled, are excellent venues to introduce multiplayer to the mainstream," said Seamus McAteer, Senior Analyst, M:Metrics.

Indeed.  Don't be surprised to see Second Life on a mobile phone near you before too long...
