Ping Chat 2! – The new iPhone App!
Posted by 7 on May 31, 2010 in Technology, iPhone, iPhone App
A couple of months I downloaded an application on to my iPhone which allows me to communicate with other iPhone users.
It was called Ping. Unfortunately, the only thing this application could do was to send messages back and forth with another user.
Now, I know there are other applications out there but, for now, I’ve vowed to only download and use FREE applications. I know it saves me money and I hope it saves others money as well.
I used to have a blackberry before the iPhone and there was an application on there called BlackBerry Messenger (comes as standard). This application did what the new application “Ping Chat 2″ can do now!
You can send pictures, videos, voice notes and contacts to others who have the application.
I’ve been using it for a couple of days now and I’d highly recommend it.
You can download it from here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pingchat-2/id371769677?mt=8
Oh… The best thing about this is… Wait for it… It’s soon coming out on Blackberry and Android phones!!!
(As always, this application was still free to download at the time of this post and any changes in price are down to the sellers and promoters of the application.)
HTC Touch vs. iPhone
Posted by 7 on May 17, 2008 in Uncategorized
Recently, I’ve been wanting to get a new phone and I’ve been debating between the HTC Touch Dual and the Apple iPhone.
Both have their positives and negatives and I “think” I’ve made a decision about which one I want.
Let me take you through my decision…
My current phone which is the Orange SPV E650, although an amazing phone, has it’s faults and negatives.
The phone has many positives such as the slide out keypad, Wi-Fi, Media Player, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Bluetooth, an AMAZING camera, and many more features. HOWEVER, Every so often, the phone would crash, or I wouldn’t feel it vibrate when someone called. This did get a bit annoying as it meant Jilna wasn’t able to get in touch with me as much as either one of us would have liked. The phone would need to be switched off or the battery taken out whenever the phone crashed. I’ve already changed the phone once with a replacement, but it seems to be doing it again so I thought it was time to get a new phone.
I’ve always wanted both the iPhone and the HTC Touch Dual, and so I decided to compare them both.
One of the better comparison sites I used was www.gadgetstylist.com
The HTC Touch Dual boasts many features:
- Touch screen feature with interactive menus
- Bluetooth
- Slide down keypad
- Similar interactivity to the iPhone
The iPhone has lots of features such as:
- Extreme interactivity
- Different menus
- Larger screen
- Text message trails
- Wi-Fi
- Much more…
After looking at them both, and analysing the price difference in contracts (being on Orange at the moment, and the iPhone being on O2), I decided the phone for me…
It HAD to be the Apple iPhone.
So I called up Orange to find out when my contract ended so that I could get into a new one and they said my contract ends… 6th November. 
So now I have to wait til NOVEMBER to get a new phone, but I always have something to look forward to. 
For those deciding to get a new phone i’d highly recommend all three phones mentioned here.
Let me know of any decent phones you’ve come across or used.
