Wireless Communication

Mobile phones have become one of the biggest advancements in today’s modern society. Created in many shapes and sizes, mobile phones are as numbered and diverse as their users. Once bulky and cumbersome, mobile phones have evolved into sleek and stylish accessories. In fact, many cell phone companies have began competing in a veritable equivalent of an arms race inside of the wireless technology sector. Polyphonic ringtones, that is, ringtones that sound like actual music recordings rather than something derived from a 1985 Nintendo console, were just the beginning. With the advent of the iPhone, mobile phones suddenly became complete media players. Now a mobile phone doubles as a music player, a movie player, an internet browser, a video game system and a GPS.

Each of the five top mobile phone manufacturers, Nokia, Samsung, LG Electronics, Sony and Motorola have each unveiled their own top-of-the-line mobile phone. Each manufacturer touts their own flagship phone as the iPhone killer, though nothing has lived up to the name so far. If any phone has come close to nipping at the iPhone’s tail, it would be the BlackBerry, developed by the Canadian company Research In Motion. The BlackBerry has become so popular, even United States President Barrack Obama uses one. The BlackBerry works as a smartphone, an e-mail client, an instant message device and an Internet fax machine, just to name a few of its features.

The iPhone and BlackBerry inspire wonder and awe about what mobile phone devices hold for the future. It seems as though smartphones already do so much, it seems impossible to add any other features. Impossible it is not. Mobile devices are limited only by the imaginations of mobile phone manufacturers. Perhaps future mobile phones will include features that seem the realm of science fiction today What, for example, if mobile phones had the capability to perform video chat? What if cell phones one day replace the home computer as the most powerful consumer electronics device on the market? Imagine if your laptop was small enough to fit in your

pocket. On top of that, it could also take phone calls. As long as consumers continue to demand more features, it seems such a world is inevitable.

There are a lot of different deals out there. Try looking online for for some reviews. Also check out your local mobile retailer and Walmart as they also have a good plan. The companies change prices and deals from time to time so the best thing to do is research everything available.

Yes you can. I know Verizon lets you trade phones to a newer phone every 2 years. If you do it sooner they charge you the full price. If you wait they give a discount. The other cell phone companies may do the same thing.

Communication is a process that involves exchange of information, thoughts, ideas and emotions. Communication is a process that involves a sender who encodes and sends the message, which is then carried via the communication channel to the receiver where the receiver decodes the message, processes the information and sends an appropriate reply via the same communication channel.

Types of Communication

Communication can occur via various processes and methods and depending on the channel used and the style of communication there can be various types of communication.

Types of Communication Based on Communication Channels

Based on the channels used for communicating, the process of communication can be broadly classified as verbal communication and non-verbal communication. Verbal communication includes written and oral communication whereas the non-verbal communication includes body language, facial expressions and visuals diagrams or pictures used for communication.

Verbal Communication

Verbal communication is further divided into written and oral communication. The oral communication refers to the spoken words in the communication process. Oral communication can either be face-to-face communication or a conversation over the phone or on the voice chat over the Internet. Spoken conversations or dialogs are influenced by voice modulation, pitch, volume and even the speed and clarity of speaking. The other type of verbal communication is written communication. Written communication can be either via snail mail, or email. The effectiveness of written communication depends on the style of writing, vocabulary used, grammar, clarity and precision of language.

Nonverbal Communication

Non-verbal communication includes the overall body language of the person who is speaking, which will include the body posture, the hand gestures, and overall body movements. The facial expressions also play a major role while communication since the expressions on a person's face say a lot about his/her mood. On the other hand gestures like a handshake, a smile or a hug can independently convey emotions. Non verbal communication can also be in the form of pictorial representations, signboards, or even photographs, sketches and paintings.

Types of Communication Based on Style and Purpose

Based on the style of communication, there can be two broad categories of communication, which are formal and informal communication that have their own set of characteristic features.

Formal Communication

Formal communication includes all the instances where communication has to occur in a set formal format. Typically this can include all sorts of business communication or corporate communication. The style of communication in this form is very formal and official. Official conferences, meetings and written memos and corporate letters are used for communication. Formal communication can also occur between two strangers when they meet for the first time. Hence formal communication is straightforward, official and always precise and has a stringent and rigid tone to it.

Informal Communication

Informal communication includes instances of free unrestrained communication between people who share a casual rapport with each other. Informal communication requires two people to have a similar wavelength and hence occurs between friends and family. Informal communication does not have any rigid rules and guidelines. Informal conversations need not necessarily have boundaries of time, place or even subjects for that matter since we all know that friendly chats with our loved ones can simply go on and on.

Radio Broadcasting

Radio Broadcasting is the distribution of audio signals that transmit programs to an audience. There are wide varieties of broadcasting systems, all of which have different capabilities. It can vary from limited area coverage to national and can be used to transmit signals globally too, using retransmitted towers, satellite systems, and cable distribution. Satellite radio revolutionaries the entire scenario, it could cover even wider areas, such as entire continents, and Internet channels can distribute text or streamed music worldwide. In the late 1990s, digital transmissions began to be applied to broadcasting.

A broadcast may be distributed through several physical means. If coming directly from the studio at a single radio station, then it is simply sent to the transmitter from the antenna on the tower. Programming which comes through a satellite, played either live or recorded for transmission later. Different stations may simulcast the same programming at the same time. Usually analogue or digital tapes or CDs/DVDs are included in another broadcast. The final stage of broadcasting is to get the signal to the audiences. It is done via radio station to a receiver or through cable. Internet also brings radio to the recipient

Following are some of the points which should be taken into consideration for making the communication effective:

Speaking through eyes

The first thing that a good speaker does is first looks at the audience and takes a pause before beginning his speech. This helps to create good impression on the audience. While making the way through speech one must take care that he is not too lengthy. One must break his lengthy speeches to short and interesting ideas. A link should be maintained between consecutive statements. This helps to maintain the rhythm of flow of speech and keep the ears of audience towards him. Throughout the speech speaker should have maintain eye contact with the audience. Every reaction has equal and opposite reaction. So if the speaker doesn't maintain eye contact with the listeners they will feel that they are being ignored and it is quite likely that they also ignore whatever he is trying to convey.

Voice level

One more important thing while communicating is the level of voice that is he must be clear and audible to audience. A good voice can be strong point for being an effective speaker, although it's a natural gift but one can improve by skillful training and practice. Generally a good speaker knows with what tempo he should speak so that it's not too loud or too weak voice while speaking through amplifiers. Proper variation in pitch and tempo of the voice improves the quality of speech. Accurate pronunciation of words with due stresses wherever required must be done.

The speed with which the words are thrown must be such that audience can keep pace with them and are able to understand him. A thing that unknowingly happens with most of us is that we keep on repeating the words like "I mean"," you see"," etc. This may distract the audience.

Audience Awareness

To make our communication successful get the clue about the audience their interests. Following points should be noted:

1) Get the rough idea of the strength of the listeners.

2) Think over the age, sex, background and interest of the listeners.

3) See whether the audience is patient enough to handle you for hours. Check out if they are friendly or hostile.

4) Choose the approach that suits the audience.

5) Create a feeling such that each individual feels that the speaker is trying to talk with him and sharing the joy and sorrow of events with him.

6) Let the audience know depth of your knowledge regarding the subject.

7) Show your sincerity and whole heartedness for the subject.

8) To keep the communications healthy do keep cracking jokes in between such that the jokes should not be appeared to be deliberately told. They should relate to topic.

9) Concentrate on your ideas and do not get distracted by the activities performed by the audience e.g. smiling, whispering.

Facial expressions

Face is mirror of an individual's personality. Facial expressions reveal what thoughts are running through a persons mind. For e.g. a smile expresses friendliness and affection. Raised eye-brows show surprise and furrowed forehead conveys fear and anxiety. All the emotions and various types of human behavior bring different expressions on face. So while communicating see that the facial expressions reveal your interest for the subject on which you are communicating.

Postures

The body movements while speaking must coordinate with your convincing power. They must be such that they add to the things which are more effectively caught visually than verbally. For e.g. A head down shows the completion of a statement, raising of head indicates the end of the question. More frequent body movements reveal a state hurry or confusion in mind.

Dress Sense

The clothing plays an important role in presenting ourselves to society. The people who wear dress suitable to their body structure look attractive. A person's physical appearance and dress creates a definite impact on the communication process. A dress should be such that it is not too modern for the people whom we are interacting yet be able to create a positive impression on them.

These were the few things which many of us overlook but these small things contribute for effective communication. Regular follow up of these things will enhance the skill of communicating.

I have once done this and it worked well, but put the windex on a paper towel then clean the screen.

Yes, it will :)

Mobile phones emit radiofrequency (RF) radiation, which is a type of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation. Non-ionizing radiation has lower frequency and lower energy than ionizing radiation, such as X-rays, and is therefore less likely to damage DNA or cells.

The RF radiation emitted by mobile phones is in the microwave range and is absorbed by the tissues in the head and body when the phone is used. Some people have expressed concern about the potential health effects of RF radiation from mobile phones, but the weight of scientific evidence to date does not suggest that the use of mobile phones poses a significant risk to human health.

this is the best product that many people use to avoid electromagnetic radiation from cell phones : ｈｔｔｐｓ：／／ｗｗｗ．ｄｉｇｉｓｔｏｒｅ２４．ｃｏｍ／ｒｅｄｉｒ／４４８９０９／ｚｏｅｙ１２／

Disadvantages to CDMA are

Your handset can only be used with the provider that you got the phone from. Should your phone brake under contract but out of warranty, getting a new phone from the provider will automatically extend your contract another 2 years.

CDMA is limited to North America and a few other places, GSM is worldwide. If you like to travel oversea's, for the most part, leave your CDMA phone at home.

GSM phones can be unlocked meaning that they can be used with any GSM provider. If my GSM phone brakes, I can get a cheap replacement phone without having to extend my contract. When I travel oversea's, I can continue using my service, better yet, I can use a local sim card for the country I am in and make and receive calls at a much lower rate.

You can't there is absolutely no way you can do that for free I'm telling ya locating cell phones is 2,000 dollars for me and for you if you want to pay the price! Noo noo way you can do it for free.....................................................................................................................................................................................................

To make it easy... its the screen on top of the LCD part of a touch screen phone... so its kind of an LCD protector.

Entering *#06# on any cell phone should cause it to show the IMEI number assigned to it.

The best thing to do is to take it to a phone shop like a Verizon Wireless. Or look for phone cleaner.

There are mild abrasive creams you can use. Before you buy something expensive, try a little spackling compound (the stuff you patch holes in walls with). Rub a small amount on the screen with your bare finger until it squeeks. Wipe clean with a cotton cloth.

If that didn't remove the scratch, you might have some success with that brush-on scratch remover that you use for glasses. Check the local drugstore.

As a last resort, you might be able to minimize the scratch with a drop or two of fingernail polish remover. Let it dry because it will soften the plastic.

Use toothpaste. I have had a voyager for 4 years and it worked wonders. it didnt take out the major scratchs but it improved it very well. it took about 3 or 4 time of rubbing toothpaste on it...

Well it either means he can't let go and he/she still loves you or he just wants to keep in touch with you and become friends. It can be really hard to let someone go and that might be the reason like i said before but ex's can also be just that they want to be your friend because they realized that just because it didn't work out between you guys doesn't mean that you guys couldn't be friends. So... Don't be scared just be nice to them and see where it goes. Good luck from Megan Zielinski in Washington! Happy Holidays!
