I think I’m going to start an new catagory, ‘smartphone’. My trusty Audiovox SMT5600<\/a> is always by my side. I originally purchased it (used on eBay<\/a> and unlocked <\/a>from the tyrany of carrier chains) because it was the first, and only (at the time) phone that played Windows DRM protected content.<\/p>\n

I use it on a daily basis to listen to podcasts on my commute. I have a cassette adapter for my truck and then switch to the ‘buds for the train ride. I can burn through a good 2+ hours of content on a daily basis. I’ve up’d the storage card to a 1GB device and although I get the occasional ‘jitter’ in playback it has worked well despite the fact that the specs for the phone indicate a limit of 512MB.<\/p>\n

Lately I’ve greatly increased my use of the on-board camera. With the addition of an app from ShoZu <\/a>I can now directly upload my phonecam shots to my Flickr<\/a> account immediatly after taking the shot. No need to sync the phone, attach the pic to an email, or other thumb-wrentching exercises, just a simple ‘Yes’ to the ‘Send this to Flickr?’ prompt.<\/p>\n

Sweet.<\/p>\n

Anyway, what I really wanted to mention was a good description of several of the icons that appear on the status bar of the phone. This entry goes into some detail about the antenna and data connection type icons. I always suspected that the ‘G’ indicated a GSM data connection but now I know for sure.<\/p>\n
