Choosing a Business Mobile Phone
When choosing a mobile phone for personal use, the buyer is usually looking for the latest style, the hottest color and all the little extra features that a phone can offer them. When choosing a phone for business, however, it is best to choose a phone that suits the needs of the business, not one with a lot of extra gadgets that you will probably never even use.
When choosing a business phone, the main features that you may want to look for
include:
1. Large screen
2. Easy to use interface
3. Email capability – preferably via Blackberry Mobile email
4. Calendar capability
5. Camera if you are in a business that needs a camera phone
Obviously these are features that you would not be looking for on a standard phone for personal use but you just never know when any or all of these features may come in handy for your business. There are several other things to keep in mind when looking for the perfect business mobile phone for you.
A company that you may want to look into for help in finding the perfect business mobile for you is Telaustralia. They carry phones from top manufacturers such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Samsung, LG, and 02 mobile phone hand sets. Also you can choose to get a phone for free with a 24 month plan or contact them to purchase one of their phones or handsets outright.
Nokia is the traditional market leader for Mobile Phone handset sales, but over the past 2 years has faced much stiffer competition from the likes of Motorola, Sony Ericsson and Samsung who’s mobile phone handsets are gaining popularity. For typical Business use, longevity and reliability we still recommend Nokia Mobile Phone handsets followed by Sony Ericsson.
If you want your Business Mobile Phone handset to be a useful Business tool and not a play thing full of gadgets you wont use, heres a few tips that may be useful in selecting your next phone.
Consumers usually select a mobile phone based personal preference with brand, size, colour, flip phone or not etc. For a Business user however, selecting the right Business Mobile Phone handset to do the job should always be a matter of substance over style.
As we have number portability in Australia you are no longer locked into one network or provider for your Business mobile Phones. With telaustralia you can bring your Business Mobile phone with you or we can provide a handset as part of your deal and have access to the Telstra Mobile Phone Network or the Optus Mobile Phone Network.
Some of the features you need for your Business mobile Phone are -
Do you need a flip phone or block style?
Usually this is just personal choice but in some cases there are functional issues that dictate. eg. are you in an environment where there is a lot of dust? A flip Phone or clam shell style may be more suitable as it closes after use and this may reduce (but not altogether eliminate) the amount of dust that gets into the key pad and screen. Are you likely to drop or have impact on the mobile phone? If so a rubberized tradesman type of mobile phone may be more suitable.

Battery Life
Long battery life is essential for your business mobile phone, especially when traveling or on the road a lot. There is nothing worse than running out of charge at an inappropriate time – usually in the middle of an important call.. Look for mobile phones that use a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery rather than a nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) one. Li-ion batteries weigh less and provide 10 to 20 percent better performance than their NiMH counterparts. You’ll want a mobile phone with a rated talk time of at least 3.5 hours, preferably closer to 5 hours. If your mobile comes with a desktop charger, shell out for the travel charger since it’s significantly smaller and easier to pack for business trips.
Travel
If your travels take you overseas, you’ll want a tri-band GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) Mobile Phone, which operates on networks (GSM 900/1800/1900) in Europe, Asia and the US.
Features
You’ll also want a handset that features a hefty address book — at least 300 names with support for multiple entries per contact. Some Mobile Phones allow you to include information such as email, Web and street addresses with your contacts. You can enter all that information one key at a time, or you can get a Mobile Phone with the ability to synchronize with Microsoft’s Outlook on your PC. Nokia PC Suite allows you to load address book and other software on to your lap top and back up as required and import other information such as calendars, pictures & songs to your phone.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth equipped Mobile Phones are a must these days. If your PC or handheld doesn’t feature integrated Bluetooth support, you can purchase an adapter to add this functionality. Then you can browse the Internet using your Mobile Phone as a wireless modem. You can also use Bluetooth to synchronize phone numbers and addresses between your Mobile Phone and other devices.
Another advantage with Bluetooth is that many cars now come equipped with Bluetooth hands free so there no need to get handsfree kits wired up in your vehicle. If you vehicle isnÕt already equipped with Bluetooth, portable and rechargeable handsfree kits such as Blue Ants Supertooth 2 are available and very low cost. These usually clip to your sun visor and are portable from car to car.
Internet
Even better, skip your notebook altogether. Fast Internet access is rapidly becoming a common feature in mobile phones. Most GSM Mobile Phones support GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) networks, which offer always-on Internet content and data services, enabling access to Web browsing, email and multimedia content at around 56Kbps. 3g Data is carried at speeds of up to 3.6Mbps with planned speeds in Australia of over 40Mbps using HSDPA. Many mobile phone manufacturers including Nokia & Sony Ericsson are now taking advantage of the RIM BlackBerry Licencing and including Blackberry Mobile email on their mobile phones.
If you spend most of your time away from the office meeting with clients, you may want to consider a smart phone, which combines mobile phone and handheld functions in one unit. These phones are larger and much more expensive than standard handsets, often costing as much AU$1,200, but they eliminate the need for two separate devices.

Could Spy Gadget Sales Get You Sued?
The world of surveillance has become high tech.
The spy gadgets that at one time were available only to professionals are now available to the general public, paranoia fuels the modern animal and personal spy gadget sales have skyrocketed in the last few years.
And while the general public is buying spy gadgets like there’s no tomorrow is there any risk for people selling them from things like lawsuits and criminal charges?
The answer in one word is, yes. There is a very real risk that if you decide to sell spy gadgets then you risk some form of legal trouble. Be it trouble bringing items through customs or something more serious.
However, this just means that you’re going to need to cover your bases.
While the vast majority of gadgets have a legal and legitimate use, it’s safe to assume that the vast majority of people will not be using these gadgets for their intended purpose.
Be warned, selling spy gadgets can be a risky business. But with the proper planning, trouble can be easily avoided.
The legal ramifications of selling spy gadgets are hefty if you are convicted of being an accessory.
But for that charge to stick it has to be proved that you had the intent to commit a crime when you sold the equipment.
You should check your state’s laws but eavesdropping is generally considered a class E felony punishable by up to $5000 and 4 years in the slam.
Simple possession of surveillance gear with intent to use is a misdemeanor. Big business has jumped on the counter surveillance bandwagon in a big way as corporate secrets are vulnerable to espionage.
However, the correct wording in your product descriptions and advertisements will virtually guarantee your safety from legal issues.
The Importance Of Intended Use Only
A simple disclaimer should keep you in the clear as far as legal matters are concerned.
A statement clearly expressing that “this product is sold for its intended use only and is not to be used for illegal purposes” should keep you out of hot water as far the law is concerned as you have clearly stated your intentions.
There is a huge market for spy gadgets these days and the profit potential is great as society grows increasingly security minded.
