    3G technology gives iPhone fast access to the Internet and email over cellular networks around the world. iPhone 3G also makes it possible to do more in more places: Surf the web, download email, get directions, and watch video — even while you’re on a call.

    My smartphone is the new 3g iphone. It allows you to do things that you just might be able to do on the computer right there on your phone. One important thing the 3g iphone lets you do search the web, It lets you check your email, and it turns into a notepad so you can take notes in class.
    These features would be good for any student, because your phone is not just to call out know it is more like a computer. Taking notes and surfing the web are things you would need to do in class any ways.

  4. The Blackberry Storm can be used in school for many things. Like for instance it can organizer the student work for them so they wont have all this things to remeber and wont forget about it. The second reason is it can go on the web if they dont want to get in trouble they can sit by the teacher with it and get on it without all the conflict. The final reasin is that it can look up continet and directions if the class is lost when they go some where.

  5. The best pda divice to me is the blackberry storm. One way it is good for school is because you can get on the internet. Thats good because we have computer class. Another way that the phone is good for school because we will be able to use a phone in class and dont have to crowd in the office. The phone can be useful to a student because we can put are homework in the planner on the phone. The phone screen can also turn wich ever way you turn it.

    Filing editing is also a good thing for a student because they have microsoft words on there and you can get your assignments done.

  11. PDA's (Nokia e90 Communicator) are very small and can comfortably fit in a pocket. It also have's good battery life which allows you to recharge it at over night or when you have time. A PDA usually includes a small screen usually bigger than a digital phone, something like a small laptop, and a small keyboard. It also includes a metal or plastic pen to input data or communicate with others almost like a touch pad screen. In saying that it would be very helpful in many cases. Yes a PDA is something like a phone but more helpful school wise. The reason is because the PDA can save work for you, help you with some questions you might have in class, and can help you in math

  17. The phone I choosed was the Blackberry Pearl 8130. An important feature in the Blackberry Pearl is the internet. Students can use the web on their phones to look up things for class assignments. Another feature in the Blackberry Pearl 8130 is the e-mail. In class, students can use the e-mail feature to confirm things in class when you sign for things such as Blogger. We had to confirm our e-mail address in order for us to make a blog. One last feature in this phone is the Music Player. In class when we are done with our work we can listen to music or when we are doing work we can also listen to music.

    is the phone I have chosen. I have chosen this phone because the PMA International Convention and Trade Show are known to attract many visitors from all over the World. Professional photographers, retailers, repurchase organizations, and just about every person related to digital imaging. So it basically works like a computer. They can improve their learning skills like if there are no more computers left and there are students they can do the work on their phones. Another way is if they are absent they can do it at home.
