Agreement on Cell Phone Chargers in E.U.

European Commission has reached a voluntary agreement with some of the biggest names in the electronics industry to introduce a common charger for cell phones that fits all models. New phones configured to use the standardized chargers use a micro-USB connector for charging. Information on this USB charging connector is available at USB Approved Class Specification Documents documents. Read Battery Charging v1.1 Spec and Adopters Agreement document for more information (NOTE: Document is inside .zip file you get). The new technology could mean chargers would eventually be sold separately from new phones. Ten major mobile phone producers representing the vast majority of the E.U. market have pledged to participate in the agreement. USB As A Power Source has some interesting facts on using USB power for charging and operating electronic devices.

    By the way, the only method to protect yourself from spy gadgets and annoying calls is to use Cell blocker. Disable mobiles around you.

    But before you plan to use such device, you should check your local laws related to use of such devices.
    There are many countries where using a cell phone blogger is illegal!
    Intentionally interfering with radio communications can be considered to be a serious crime, which means
    if you get cought using such device you can loose you device and get huge fines, even risk going to jail!

    Looks like the consensus is about the same across the board. Apple fixed what it needed to fix (for the most part) with the iPhone 3G S (and the 3. 0 OS update) yet.. the iPhone 3G S isn’ t the compelling upgrade that the 3G was. Yup.. you can be sure …

    Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.Have you tried the ipad? you can get one free at FreshGiftCard.com
