What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth is a radio technology developed to deliver short-range wireless mobility. Bluetooth eliminates cables/wires /cords between devices, such as mobile phones and headsets, and provides services when devices are in
close proximity to one another. Bluetooth facilitates fast, secure transmissions of both voice and data, even when the devices are not in line-of-sight.

My daugther gave my wife the phone for christmas.
It appeared that the box had been opened and the battery would not hold a charge. The battery was not packaged and appeared to have been thrown in the box. After repeated attempts to get a new battery the only way td would solve the problem was to return the entire phone. Reception on the phone was not as good as our old Nokia..

Received mine today in Heidelberg, Germany and everything is working fine with my German SIM card. The CD was missing and I asked TD to send it to me. We'll see if the Tiger cooperates. Rick.....

I guess I got a lemon. This looks and feels like a knock-off of a real cell phone. I'm disappointed in Motorola for this product. The construction is very low quality. The hinge in particular is flimsy. I'm returning this first thing tomorrow.

I just LOVE this PEBL! It has a nice feel to it, and the sound is crystal clear. I replaced my Razr which buzzed continually. Features are set up in the same way (thank you Motorola) so it was very easy to set up start using. Unike ''Tommy2'' my unit DOES have the autoupdate clock AND a normal US Motorola charger. Comments about ''fingerprint magnet'' are correct, but I had the same thing on my Razr. I absolutely love this phone and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid cell phone without all the gimics.
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range communications technology
intended to replace the cables connecting portable and/or fixed devices while
maintaining high levels of security. The key features of Bluetooth technology
are robustness, low power, and low cost.
It’s more than seeing. It’s
believing.
Before wires, everything was wireless. Nature found ways to connect it
all—often on a very mysterious frequency. Bluetooth wireless technology
takes its prompt from nature: harmonious, intuitive, seamless. Products with
Bluetooth wireless technology communicate with a sense of purpose and
elegant efficiency. Today, Bluetooth wireless technology can eliminate
wires. In the future, it may make the word “wireless” entirely obsolete.
By then, Bluetooth freedom will be second nature.
Designed to make connectivity invisible and
reliable. A perfect convergence of extraordinary technology and elegant
simplicity. Hundreds of companies are on board. Thousands of engineers have
contributed. Standards have been set. Specifications have been approved.
More than one billion devices are in use. And people are experiencing just
how far they can go.
It’s integrating every dimension of
productivity.
Where do we work? Desk. Sofa. Car. Hotel. Kitchen. Plane. Yard. It’s not one
location; it’s everywhere. It’s not one application; it’s many. With
Bluetooth wireless technology, our options are endless. It’s where we’d most
expect it and where we’d least expect it—and everywhere in between. It
adapts to how we work and how we live, transforming everyday tasks into
everyday solutions. Surprising, nimble, ubiquitous. Seeking new applications
and finding new opportunities—everywhere we turn.
Technically,
Bluetooth is a specification for the use of low-power radio communications to wirelessly link phones, computers and other network devices over short distances. The name "Bluetooth" is borrowed from Harald Bluetooth, who was a king in Denmark more than 1,000 years ago
(Computer people choose the strangest names!). Bluetooth technology was designed primarily to support simple wireless networking of personal consumer devices and peripherals, including cell phones, PDAs,
and wireless headsets.
What Is GSM? Today's Wireless Revolution is being
achieved through the GSM family of wireless technology platforms
- today's GSM, GPRS, EDGE & 3GSM.
It is the basis of a powerful family of platforms for the future
- providing a direct link into next generation solutions
including GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) EDGE (Enhanced
Data for GSM Evolution) and 3GSM.
GSM's unrivalled success can be attributed to many factors,
including the unparalleled co-operation and support between all
those supplying, running and exploiting the platform. It is
based upon a true end-to-end solution, from infrastructure and
services to handsets and billing systems.
GSM is a standard that embraces all areas of technology,
resulting in global, seamless wireless services for all its
customers. It's all part of the Wireless Evolution.
GSM (Global System for Mobile
communications) is the technology that underpins most of the
world's mobile phone networks. The GSM platform is a hugely
successful wireless technology and an unprecedented story of
global achievement and cooperation. GSM has become the world's
fastest growing communications technology of all time and the
leading global mobile standard, spanning 214 countries. Today, GSM technology is in use by more
than one in five of the world's population - by June 2006 there
were over 2 billion GSM subscribers, representing approximately
80% of the world's cellular market. The growth of GSM continues
unabated with almost 400 million new customers in the last 12
months. The progress hasn't stopped there. Today's
GSM platform is living, growing and evolving and already offers
an expanded and feature-rich 'family' of voice and multimedia
services.
Before You Buy, Please
Note:
All of our unlocked GSM phones come from around the globe. As such, features and accessories may vary. Some require US adapters. In some cases, language needs to be reset to English from the default language through manually setting
the language option on the phone.
What is Java?
Java is a software technology developed to provide a common base for running applications across a wide variety of computing platforms. It consists of a programming language and a run-time environment.
Java applications can run on servers, personal computers, mobile phones and other devices. Because the capabilities of these computing platforms vary, Java has evolved into 3 editions:
1.) Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) - for high-end business machines
2.) Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) - for personal computers
3.) Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) - for smaller handheld devices such as mobile phones and PDAs
The Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) is a key element of the J2ME, defining a platform for dynamic networked applications. Developers using MIDP can write applications once, then deploy them to a wide variety of mobile devices.
MIDP has been widely adopted as the platform of choice for mobile applications.
How does it work?
Software written in Java is independent of operating systems, as the instructions are interpreted in the computer at the time when the software is run, not beforehand. Every computer or device that runs a Java application must
have a Java Virtual Machine that adapts the application code for the specific device and before executing it.
Contents of package may vary from those pictured and stated here,
due to changes in manufacturer's specifications or merchandising.
Please check the product information carefully, items not included
may no longer be required.
