Top 10 Accessories for the BlackBerry 8900 Curve

Monday, June 29th, 2009

The BlackBerry 8310 Curve was the first mainstream BlackBerry handset that was aimed at everyday consumers as well as businesses. It was a great handset that packed a lot of features into a pretty small design, and as with all BlackBerry’s it was great for email and messaging. Its replacement, the BlackBerry 8900 Curve, is even better. It weighs less, is smaller, has a higher resolution screen and has Wi-Fi Built in.

BlackBerry have kept the business users features and have also put more of a media and entertainment spin on the new 8900 Curve, so to make the most of the phone there are a few accessories that you should invest in – especially if you’ve upgraded from the 8310 as the cases & chargers for the 8900 are different.

To help you make the right choice in deciding on accessories for your new smart phone, we’ve compiled our list of top 10 accessories for the BlackBerry Curve 8900.

Blackberry Curve 8900 Swivel Pouch

1. BlackBerry 8900 Curve Swivel holster

The BlackBerry 8900 is a stylish looking phone that needs a stylish case to go with it. The Pouch that’s included with the phone does an ok job of protecting it, but it’s nothing special. This BlackBerry 8900 Curve Swivel holster is made from premium lambskin leather and has a rotating belt clip on the rear. It builds in protection for the trackball and has a proximity sensor that can automatically change the alert tones on your 8900 curve when ever it’s inserted or removed from the case.

How to Recycle your old Mobile Phones

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Mobile phones are almost a throw away item these days, with most of us upgrading our handsets every 12-18 months, if not sooner.  If you’re like me, chances are you don’t want to let your old phone go, and hang on to it “just in case” you ever need a spare.

In reality though, your old handset that used to be your pride and joy is probably still sitting at the back of a drawer gathering dust and is never likely to make a call or send a text ever again.  If you do ever dig it out, chances are you’ll go to do something on it that it can’t do and just throw it back in the drawer.

Well, here’s another thing you can do with it – Recycle it!  Not only is recycling your handset better for the environment, but it can also be good on your pocket to, as you can actually get cash back when you send your old phone in for recycling.

Mobile phones should never be thrown in your normal household rubbish as the components in them take such a long time to break down, but knowing where to send them can be a bit tricky.  For that reason, Mobile Fun are proud to announce that we have just launced a Mobile Phone Recycling Service.  It’s completely free and is as easy as filling in a form and posting your phone to us – not only that, it pays you to do it!

To give you an idea on the money that you could get back, here’s a few examples of the cash back available on some of the popular phones that might be heading towards retirement.

Qstik Stereo Bluetooth Headset Review

Friday, June 26th, 2009

The Qstik EVO Q is more than just a standard Bluetooth Headset. It may not be made by a big household name, but that doesn’t mean that the Qstik EVO Q is missing out on features – if anything it has more than some headsets by Nokia and Sony Ericsson. I’ve been using the Qstik for the last week in place of my usual Stereo Bluetooth headset, to see how it measures up against its rivals. In this review I tested the headset using the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and the Apple iPhone 3G running iPhone OS 3.0.
