Determining what kind of phone service you want is not so easy
anymore. There are lots of choices to make: local phone service,
long distance phone service, cellular phone service, calling
cards, and voice over IP
(VoIP) are just some of the choices we
have to make. Does it make more sense to just have a cellular
phone, or is VoIP best for you? Or, should you stick with the
traditional land line phone service? Well, the answer is...it
depends. Here are some interesting facts about cellular phone
service.
Did you know that a cellular phone is basically a radio? To be
precise, it is actually a radio transmitter and receiver. A
cellular phone is essentially a two-way radio transceiver that
patches into the telephone system via a cellular network of base
stations. The antenna of a cellular phone is the phone's primary
source of radio frequency, and the quality of the signal depends
on your phone, the distance to the source (usually a tower), and
other factors which may affect radio transmissions.
What kind of service is best for you? First, understand that,
for the most part, you will need to enter into a contract with
the service provider. In other words, a cellular phone is
typically provided with a service contract so caution is advised
that you think about what kind of use your cell phone will get
and to sign up for the appropriate service plan.
Trying to decide which mobile phone service is right for you can
be very difficult. But there is another option: if you do not
want a lengthy agreement, opt for prepaid mobile phone program.
The prepaid cellular phone is an alternative to a monthly
cellular phone plan. Basically, you pre-pay for your service
(like a calling card). When you near the end of the amount of
minutes you've paid for, you either just discontinue using it or
buy more time (minutes).
While the cellular phone is mostly made up of plastics, it is
run by several powerful computer chips. Each cellular phone is
assigned a unique ESN, which is automatically transmitted to the
cellular tower station every time a cellular call is placed. All
that means is that the cellular phone is even unleashing us from
telephone wires. This is hi-tech in motion.
But if you want to buy a new cellular phone but don't know where
to begin researching, look for wireless phones and cell phone
plans based on plan features or usage. What kind of cellular
phone should you buy? Well, that's where that research on your
part comes in, just like picking the right service does. And,
there are lots of choices to make. For example, a camera phone
is a cellular phone that also has picture taking capabilities.
There are also video phones available. There are games,
organizers, Bluetooth technology. The list grows daily. In fact,
picking a cellular phone is almost a science in itself. For more
