Cell phones are traditionally meant, well, for phone activity! All the extra tweaks and perks of a phone, such as camera, mp3 player, video recorder, and etc, are peripheral inclusions. 
Verizon has decided to change that, with their beautiful LG Chocolate Touch. It’s a sleek, lovely design; the phone is a phone, yes; but it’s designed for the media loving, social networking, music listening person. Verizon has really outdone themselves with the LG Chocolate, and left the competition in the dust! I saw the phone at Best Buy, and it is gorgeous. The music quality is superb. The LG Chocolate Touch is receiving high ratings for it’s Dolby Mobile technology. It has some really, really sweet perks:
- Send and receive calls and texts just like any phone, but the LG Touch is geared for social networking: it has a One touch “Social Network Message Key” for easy blogging on the go, to Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and more.
- It provides “Mobile Media,” which is very high-quality visual (photo and video) and audio voice and text messaging, with Visual voicemail.
- The camera, a 3.2 megapixel, takes very clear photos and videos. The LG includes an image editor, too.
- There are numerous visual effects, and the LG handset will vibrate to the beat of the music playing!
- It is the Dolby Mobile technology that makes the LG Chocolate Touch really stand out– the audio is crystal-clear, very nice!
- The screen is very responsive. That’s a nice change from some of the others I’ve seen, where you have to hammer on the screen to get it to do anything!
The phone is a music-lover’s, social media fan’s dream come true. It is so much easier to have in one small gadget everything you need for phoning, texting, listening to music, AND mobile blogging. I’ve read some reviews by C|Net and PC World, and they give the LG Chocolate Touch great ratings. It is a beautiful phone, and the audio quality is incredible. Check out the website for more details about the phone.

If you are holding on, STILL searching for perfect gift for the technology geek and audiophile in the family– or looking for a nice music accessory for your home– what have you been waiting for? Check out this classy PDX-60 from Yamaha. It works with your iPhone or iPod. It’s a wireless speaker system with the characteristic Yamaha quality and style. The PDX-60 will allow you to enjoy your games, music, and movies with superior lossless quality, all the while your iPod or iPhone is cradled in the unit. Yamaha uses their new technology yAired, which provides outstanding quality– wirelessly– without the interruptions, delays, and degradation sometimes associated with wireless devices. And yAired allows remote control operations, too, for volume control and and power on.
Plus, the design of the PDX-60 is swanky! It comes in four different colors to compliment your style. I love the teal, and the pink is smashing.
I have four music lovers in the family (the husband is a musician and the children are following his footsteps) and wouldn’t they love this as the centerpiece in the living room! The Yamaha PDX-60 is functional as well as beautiful– the wireless transmitter will recharge the iPod or iPhone as it sits in the charging cradle.
It’s slick, classy, affordable, and a perfect accessory for any iPod fan and music/movies lover. Check out the website for more details, to place an order, or on how to find a authorized Yamaha dealer in your area.

I got to take a peek at the new LG Chocolate Touch over the weekend, at my local electronics store. I’d been hearing about it a lot, and was curious. (It was probably the word “chocolate” that got my attention!). It’s beautiful.
I currently have TracFone for cell phone service. Yes! I’m an old curmudgeon with cells. I got it a few years ago before I got my WAHM job, and when the kids were smaller. Our needs have changed. For one, the girls and I are always sharing the phone. :S So if they go out somewhere, I’m without a cell, and vice versa. I’ve been shopping around for cell phones and prices. The LG Chocolate is just beautiful– it’s issued by Verizon Wireless (we already subscribe to them for phone and DSL), so it’s with a company I’m familiar with. The LG is a nice, nice cell. But it’s got more to it than making and receiving texts and calls.
These days, we expect a cell phone to do more. The LG Chocolate Touch does MUCH more:
- It’s got Dolby Mobile, with an equalizer and incredibly rich audio features. So playing mp3s is something akin to a “live” performance.
- It gives 1GB of internal memory, with an expandable capacity for 16 more GB. Yow!
- It can automatically download the songs you like from listening to the FM radio!
- It has “Rhythmical Beat” that will vibrate with the song that’s playing. You can even play along with virtual drums, etc. LOL
- It is fully prepared for social media networking with a Social Network Message Key.
- And that’s all besides the other stuff you can do: texting, social media networking, take photos, make calls, etc etc.
It’s a sweet gadget. Check out the website for the LG Chocolate Touch.

Here’s something that would make a spectacular gift for the music lover in your circle: the Yamaha PDX-60. Wow! It’s gorgeous. But then again, just about everything that Yamaha produces is gorgeous.
The Yamaha PDX-60 is an iPod speaker dock, at its most basic. But there’s a lot more to it. For one, it will play your games, movies, AND music from either your iPod or iPhone. The Yamaha PDX-60 is specially made for beautiful clarity and depth of sound. The functional side of the Yamaha PDX-60 is that it will also charge your iPod or iPhone, which is very nice! The Yamaha PDX-60 comes with a small, separate charging dock as well as a charger within the Yamaha PDX-60 itself. That would clinch the deal for me– the integrated charger as well as beautiful sounds proves that Yamaha pays attention to detail and is sensitive to customers’ needs. I just hate having all these chargers around the house!
The Yamaha PDX-60 is equipped with special Yamaha technology, called yAired. It’s a clear, wireless connection, with no annoying sound delays or diminished audio clarity. Yamaha promises an exceptional sound experience– the Yamaha PDX-60 features uncompressed wireless audio transmission, a remote control for easy operation, simple operation (no Bluetooth hassles), and no sound delays. It’s a very, very classy little piece of technology. I think it would be perfect for the music aficionado, just in time for the holidays! Checkout the Yamaha PDX-60 product page for more information, features, photos of the device, and retailers to get it.

Maybe the time has finally come. To get an iPod. I am the kind of shopper who totally AVOIDS the mad rush to pay one year’s wages for the latest technology. (Plus, I hate standing in lines!). SO I watched with slight amusement and disgust when the craze for the high-priced iPod rose. I’d much, much rather take these things cautiously– wait and see how technology develops, wait for prices to go down, and wait for the others to work out the bugs! I’m a cautious buyer and I usually research things well before taking the plunge. I checked out iPods a few months ago, and while the prices had gone down at my local retailer, I thought they were still pretty high. Plus, I still new very little about the gadgets (I’m a PC user, still, but hopefully things will change in the future).
Anyway! If you are like me and have been on the prowl for better deals on iPods, maybe you’d be interested in Shopobot.com. Cute name, eh? They are like a mini iPod search engine– the webpage shows a selection of new and used iPods, listing the features in an organized way so you can choose what’s right for you (the ones I saw were all at Amazon). You can check out their page for iPod Prices here. It features new and used iPods. There’s also some handy buying guides, and other social media options. I took a deeper peek into the website, and Shopobot also features buying guides and listings for other stuff, including books, Canon DSLRs, gaming consoles, and other electronics. A nice buying guide site, check it out.
