Apple began selling the iPhone 3G S this morning at 2,200+ AT&T locations, 211 Apple Stores and seven other countries. One analyst says Apple may sell 500,000 iPhones this weekend. Seems like a lofty number, but it would be only half as many as the iPhone 3G did in its first week. The iPhone 3G went up for sale in 21 countries on the first day. There are minor changes to the outside of the iPhone 3G S, including an oil-resistant screen. Major overhauls have… View this story

There must be a better use of 1500 pages of paper, right? That’s the approximate total of paper used in the three phone books recently delivered to my home. I got the Yellowbook, Talking Phone Book and what I think was another from Verizon. I can’t recall the official name because it went from step to trash in the matter of seconds. Who uses these things anymore? I can Google ten phone numbers in the time it takes me to find one in a phone… View this story

Panasonic has integrated its digital phone system technology with Control4 automation. As a result, homeowners will be able to control every home system that can be controlled via a Control4 controller through certain Panasonic cordless phones. The beta testing is complete for the integration, which is part of Panasonic and Control4’s strategic relationship, and it should be rolled out in the next few weeks “or definitely by the end of April,” says Panasonic public relations rep Martha Whiteley. Panasonic showed an early version of the… View this story

It’s time to get a handle on your phone bills, you say? Xtreme Technology Corporation may have a solution that’ll put more dollars in your wallet. The company recently added a new feature to its Xlink device that gives users that ability to use regular home phones to make Skype calls. The Xconnect feature supports both Skype to Skype and Skype to home phone calls. As with previous Xlink devices, you can still use your home phones to make calls via your cell phone service.… View this story

Everyone has become dependent on the cell phone for communication. Now, Verizon Wireless wants to bring some fun and functionality back to the home phone market. The company just announced a new desktop phone, dubbed the Verizon Hub. Designed to work with any broadband provider, the unit pulls together calling, calendars, and address books into one fancy-schmancy touchscreen. As an added bonus, you can check on traffic and weather. That’s nice, but it seems like I can’t walk two feet without a way to check… View this story

If you’re having trouble factoring both TV and web access into your budget, Verizon wants to help. The service provider just announced a few promotions for its triple- and double-play customers. The new promotion will feature high-speed web access, Verizon’s Freedom plan for unlimited calling, and DirecTV. Get all three for a low price of $80 a month for 12 months. If you need to shave a few bucks off, you can get two for $50. If you are just interested in the Internet, Verizon… View this story

People often ask us what their best bet is regarding web, TV and telephone service. Everyone has their favorites; even ”Consumer Reports.” The mag just announced results that fiber-optic services seem to be the leading choice, when it comes to the trifecta. Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-verse were cited as the best bang for your buck, as well as providing some of the best customer service. Sadly, those services are not available everywhere. In that case, the report says to go with “a highly-rated cable… View this story

Apparently, people still want their home and cell phones to play nice. For those occasions, Xtreme Technology just announced the XLink, a Bluetooth gateway which ties your home phone together with up to three mobile lines.  It sort of makes sense for someone like me. I never have my cell phone on me. Instead of worrying about missed calls, the XLink would route cell calls through the house phone. It’s also nice for those that still don’t have a home plan that pads long distance… View this story

Need a new phone? You can bring any brand of old phone to Staples for recycling between Oct. 12 and Nov. 15—and receive $30 back. And yes, there is a catch: You must purchase a selected GE or RCA telephone through Staples to get the free recycling and $30, which comes in the form of Staples Rewards and which means more shopping at Staples. The GE and RCA telephones available through the program are: GE 28871FE3—DECT 6.0 interference-free system with a corded base and two… View this story

AT&T is trying to re-interest you in a landline. The company has launched the AT&T HomeManager, a phone service designed to give you the security of a landline service, with cell phone-like features. Those perks include access to the web, weather, email, news, as well as “visual” voicemail. The system uses a broadband-enabled base station, which sends all of the info to a cordless 7-inch color touchscreen. You can make calls from the touchscreen, which includes a speakerphone, or a cordless headset. Everything you need… View this story

Double Plays, Triple Plays, and Quadruple Plays are not new concepts. Ever since service providers began offering more than one service the marketing departments have blitzed consumers with packaged services promising bill-saving deals. Comparing and contrasting every provider and every service can be an exhausting task, though in reality most consumers will have one or maybe two of the big cable companies to choose from, one of AT&T’s options if you’re lucky, and FiOS if you are really lucky. Some words of advice: ask questions.… View this story
