HP iPAQ 912 Business Messenger

Posted by Life Style | 4:28 AM


PDA-phone Plus Push E-mail

iPAQ 912 unit that is now marketed has changed design drastically than the first unit. Maybe it is not intentional, but its new silver line design reminds us to BlackBerry Bold launched not so long from Ipaq 912 launched. Its black cover shine, but finger print is disguised by its silver accent.


The usage of Qwerty keyboard is clearly show that this product aim to the users who accustomed with computer. Its keyboard button is protrude make users with big thumb can use it easily. Beside 4 ways navigation button, jog dial in its right upper body also can be used to choose menu. The chosen menu can be opened directly by push it. Under it, there is also OK button, like in general, its function is to close menu or application.

The other OK button is in right, under navigation button. The other function button we can find in this area is button with Windows logo that will open start menu. Shortcut to calendar and messages shows the most used facilities, use by smart phone users, but for us, it is not described business character like in its name. Take a look, even signed with certain icon, buttons in second row under the screen, can be changed the setting.

To make phone call, push number buttons in its keyboard. Then push call button. But when we want to type phone number in SMS/mms, we have to push Fn first before push number buttons.

Beside QWERTY keyboard as major input tool, HP also provide touch screen. There is no optical mouse like in Samsung SGH-i780. The unique is, when we open its back case, we will find stylus cling behind its case.

We can say that 3MP camera is great for a PDAphone, moreover if it is completed with flash light and mirror. Camera button in right body is easy to be reached. Picture can be captured in maximal resolution 3M (2048x1536). There is Capture Mode (Normal, Timer, Burst, Horizontal and Vertical view) and Photo Quality (Low, Normal, High) for take a picture. Video (included sound) only can be recorded in H263 format and with maximal resolution QVGA (320x240). Another setting provided for camera is White Balance. HP gives bonus of HP Photosmart Mobile and HP PrintSmart Mobile.

Speaker in right camera is loud enough for PDAphone. Its twoways volume button can be found in left body upper.Ipaq 912 strength with audio to set up the sound. Close to volume button is voice command button.

HP iPAQ 912 already use Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. Just to remind, in its operation system, we can get OneNote in office Mobile, Encryption for MicroSD and threaded SMS in Messages. Beside put reset button in its upper body, we also can (hard) rest software with Factory Recovery.

It is completed by GPS made by Qualcomm. HP adds External GPS that can be used as additional GPS, its port is in upper body, covered with rubber material. We do not see any GPS map made by third party. Maybe it depends on HP policy in each country. But there are Google Maps. GPS Position Accelerator help enough to “dry” process. Its accuration becomes better.

Operator setting has been prepared and can be chosen in HP iPAQ DataConnect. 3G in iPAQ 912 can be used for video call, only for internet. For some people, it is a minus.

The other facility that we need to consider is storage and connectivity. MicroSD slot in left body is easy to be reached. So does mini USB port next to it. Both are covered by rubber material. This USB port used together to recharge the battery, data transfer through cable, and headset.

In screen menu, there is a battery temperature icon that will be shown if the battery in high temperature. It is useful so that we can rest this tool when the battery is hot because of intensive used.

For Indonesian market, Business Messenger is strength by corporation with XL and Infinys System. The buyer of this product can get special number for Rp. 2 million free. Add by a right of Free Talk Program from 8 p.m until 8 a.m in weekday, and 24 hours in weekend.

From Dari Infinys System, this product enrich with push email application with technology basis of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. Use this feature, iPAQ 912 is expected can compete with BlackBerry which is developed well. Even there is any PUSH technology developed by Infinys, plus additional feature for contact synchronization, Calendar share, and tasks delegation. (Septyarini/F.X. Bambang Irawan)

Plus : HSDPA and push e-mail package, GPS, Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
Minus : no video call

There's something strange in the neighborhood. Who ya gonna call? Credit busters! The reality is that banks and credit card companies have suddenly taken to increasing interest rates and reducing the credit limits on existing lending facilities. According to the figures, nearly half the US banks reduced the limits on credit cards in the last quarter of 2008. The results of all this are easy to see. Whether you are a good or bad borrower, your credit score is dropping. If the amount of credit is reduced, you are closer to your limit. This makes you look like a bad risk and the score falls. This would be true if you were recklessly increasing your borrowing, always close to the maximum allowed. But there is something seriously wrong with the formula for calculating the score when the customer has done nothing wrong. It's hurting the good customers more than the bad because there is serious collateral damage.



If credit scores were only used by banks for internal purposes, customers might weather the storm. But employers, landlords and, most importantly, insurance companies also use the scores to decide who is a responsible and reliable member of the community. According to the Society for Human Resource Management, half the nation's employers routinely use credit scores when recruiting. The majority of insurance companies use scores when setting premiums for driving on the road. For some reason these companies have never been able to explain, they believe that people who have poor credit scores cannot drive safely on the roads. This is odd. If people cannot afford to replace their vehicles, they probably drive more carefully to reduce the risk of an accident.


Several states already have laws banning the use of credit scores for auto insurance purposes. A number of other states are proposing legislation to limit or outlaw the practice. As an aside, Maryland has a ban in place for home insurance purposes. In addition to its general unfairness, the use of credit scores is also potentially discriminatory. The problem is that people who have low incomes tend to have low scores. This concentrates poor scores among some minority groups. Civil rights campaigners suggest that African American and Latino drivers with low credit scores face unlawful discrimination on the basis of race or ethnicity. Naturally, cheap auto insurance companies deny this but, citing commercial confidentiality, refuse to produce any detailed data that would allow the issue to be settled one way or the other. As a result, the poor and disadvantaged are left with the feeling they are being victimised. What is interesting in all this is that insurers continue to be profitable in the three states where credit score use is banned, suggesting that the continuation of the practice is based on convenience. A computer can take data, apply a formula and produce a premium. If human beings had to look at files and make decisions, this would be more expensive and eat into profits.

Christmas is all about the year just past. You look around, gather in your family and friends, and celebrate the strength of your friendships by giving and receiving presents. Then comes New Year and, in a gesture to taking some responsibility for what happens in the next twelve months, people traditionally make resolutions. Most commonly, these are to diet and exercise to lose weight and, if you have not already done so, to quit smoking. For the majority, these best intentions last all of twenty-four hours before being forgotten. Yet, this year, there are good reasons for taking New Year's resolutions more seriously. As you probably already have noticed, there's a recession. People are constantly losing their jobs and homes. Debts are being caught up in credit crunching and the cost of health care is going ballistic. So, losing weight is good because, if you shed 10% of your body weight, this reduces the chances of you getting type 2 diabetes and heart disease.



But since we are talking about your health, there are other things to consider. Since jobs are at risk, now is the time to think about what would happen to your health plans if unemployment comes. Could you afford to pay for the COBRA cover? The reason for asking is that a recent survey found most families could not. So, if you cannot start a savings plan to provide enough cash, what would you do? Well, now is the time to do some research. There are a number of private medical plans available. Spending time online can identify some good cover at affordable prices. One of the starting points is the company currently supplying auto or home insurance. If you bundle policies together, you can get reasonable discounts for personalized solutions. You should also talk with local agents. Although they are driven by the commission, you can often get good ideas about how to save money with higher deductibles and more limited coverage. Then it's for you to decide, making plans with a clear head now rather than when under pressure when the job is lost.


Getting affordable health insurance is not something you should leave to the last minute. Planning now saves time and money later on. Although insurance companies can change the detail of their policies, what you research and agree now will stand up for months to come. be recession-proof, stay ahead of the game and keep your family safe. Indeed, health insurance should be the one New Year's resolution you make and keep the longest.

Have you seen the cost of the medications you would need to keep reasonably healthy if you are diagnosed with diabetes or your heart starts giving you trouble? It's better to stay healthy by losing weight and save your bank account from being hit with co-payments. And, if you are still smoking, quitting now can reduce the risk of cancers later in life. Fear of pain should encourage you to quit now.

It is all too easy to run your life on autopilot. You managed to get up into the air on your own as you came into adulthood. You punched in the destination code and then clicked the switch. Life was up above the clouds, running swift and true across the skies. Decisions were made by routine. Nothing changed because the machine was in charge and it was steering you to your destination. Then a message came to you as the pilot. Fuel is running expectedly low. You will have to land except, when you look below, the clouds have darkened into storm and you are over the sea. If your fuel runs out you will crash and be lost. In a sudden panic, you ask yourself how this could happen. You think about it some more and the answer becomes clear. Every year, you renewed your obligations without looking at what they were costing. If the prices went up, you paid without giving it a second thought. Life was good. Credit was readily available. There was no need to worry. Now the recession is here, there is worry everywhere. You have to look at your obligations again to see what savings can be made.



Let us begin with a bad news. As unemployment spreads and family budgets shrink, there are more drivers than ever before driving without insurance. The odds are now shifting. Look back ten years and you'll see that the chance of being in a traffic accident with an uninsured driver was low. Today, you need additional cover. Ironically, we are starting with a possible increase in your premium to recognize the false economy of driving without this cover. Look carefully at your own financial position and decide how much you need to cover you without having to dip into any savings. The older your car and the lower its value, the less need for collision cover. Indeed, you should self-insure by increasing the deductible. It is usually worth covering anything up to $1,000 out of your own pocket. Finally, you should consider possibility of placing both car and home insurance with the same insurance provider. This can usually save at least 10% on the joint premiums.


It is too easy to pay the auto insurance premiums automatically, renewing every year, assuming there is a loyalty bonus and that the policy is still good value for money. This is not a safe assumption. There are good long-term rates available with first-year discounts as an incentive to switch to a new company. When your own family budget is under stress, use this and any other online sites to search for the best value-for-money policy you can find that will give you the protection you need when you put wheels on the road. Auto insurance keeps you legal and keeps you safe.

How to insure a used vehicle

Posted by Life Style | 5:03 PM

When you get a standard insurance policy for a vehicle in your state you actually get a whole package of different insurance coverage types. And there's usually a certain degree of flexibility when it comes to modifying the list of coverages and the amounts each type has.

Yet, each and every state has its own laws in what concerns the least amount and selection of coverage a driver is required to carry. In some states you will have to provide proof of insurance coverage even when buying or registering your car. So to make a long answer short, you will have to buy insurance coverage no matter how cheap your ride turns out.

Liability coverage is required in every state.

What liability coverage does is defends you financially from any claims that may arise as a result of a car accident that caused the other party property damage or bodily injuries. There are mandatory minimums of this type of coverage set by state authorities individually, which vary from state to state in wide borders. However, these minimum amounts are never enough to provide full coverage in case of a serious accident, and of course it will be your budget that will have to pay the difference. That's why insurance experts recommend getting a much higher amount of liability coverage in case you want to be adequately protected against any claims.

Some types of coverage are a must in certain states, while being only an option in others.

Such types of coverage are usually medical payments coverage and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Medical payments coverage pays, as the title suggests, for any medical bills that you, your family members or passengers face after being injured in a car accident that involved the insured vehicle. Uninsured/underinsured motorist pays for the damage inflicted in an accident caused by a driver who has no car insurance or doesn't have the required amount of coverage. Deciding which type of coverage you need and what amount to get depends on your personal needs and situation on the road in your area. It's recommended to consult with your insurance agent concerning these questions.

Collision and comprehensive coverage is optional in simply all states.

The collision and comprehensive coverage in your car insurance policy pays for the damage inflicted to your car by causes other than actual car accidents. These may include natural disasters like fire, flood, thunderstorm, or collision with animals and birds. This type of auto insurance coverage also pays for theft. However this is where the value of your car plays a big part. In case of a used vehicle that costs less than $1,000 it's simply not feasible for you to have collision and comprehensive coverage because after the deductible is subtracted you'll be paid the actual value of the car. And taking in account the premiums you'll have to pay each year this is not the best way to save on car insurance out there.

If only worlds were ideal. Everyone would have the money to hand and no pre-existing medical conditions. They would buy into any insurance policy, get great value with everything covered and then, ironically, never fall ill. Life would be perfect. Unfortunately, insurance premiums have been rocketing upwards and disposable incomes have been sinking fast so insurance companies have reacted in the only way a for-profit company can - they reduced the scope of the coverage on offer. This puts pressure on everyone to search the market to find those companies representing the best value-for-money. So just how bad is it? Well, as a healthy private citizen under the age of forty years, if you shop around, you can get coverage for less than $200 a month. This will not be a gold-plated policy but it will give you a reasonable level of protection. The idea is to save you from bankruptcy if you have a serious accident or are unlucky enough to catch some serious disease. Being practical is the name of the game.




As a sign of this practicality, the age range of nineteen to twenty-nine is the most underinsured group in the US. These are the invincible people who never believe they will fall ill and always forget they are the group most likely to be injured in traffic accidents. So when people finally see the need to insure, where do they find the affordable policies? The answer, in an ideal world, is that your state's Department of Insurance offers some kind of guide to find affordable insurance. Every state in the union has a duty to regulate the insurance companies in their territory. They also operate complaints schemes so they know where many of the bodies are buried. So some states like Idaho publish guidance for those who do not have a health plan through their parents or employment. What you look for depends on what level of risk you want. A basic policy is better than no policy. If you have some savings or a guaranteed line of credit you can tap, go for a high deductible. Having a policy where you pay the first $5,000 is a good deal if you need long-term care. The larger the deductible you agree to, the lower the monthly premium. Really basic policies can cost less than $50 per month for a limited range of serious injuries and illness.


Being honest, you should never gamble with your own health or the health of your family but, every day, that is what this recession is forcing people to do. It would be great to be able to give you a promise that you will always find affordable health insurance, but life is not always fair. You can find you have the first symptoms of a long-term illness. Circumstances can change and the deductible you signed up for is no longer within your means. So, when you buy health insurance, you are always gambling just a little. Hopefully, you will come out a winner.

Spotting flood-damaged cars

Posted by Life Style | 1:59 AM

When you have your car captured by flood, you might be thinking once it gets dry it will simply be delivered to the salvage yard. Well, lets consider this possibility in detail.


You don't need some special education recognizing a car damaged by flood. If the car was staying out in the sun and it's doors were closed, its interior will be having a strong mildewed smell. Bad aromas appear due to moisture-loaded carpet padding. Until the carped is removed and thoroughly washed, you won't get rid of that scent.



Anyhow, not all of the flood-damaged cars show their real nature by only aroma. Fraudulent auto dealers will surely try to hide odors caused by water damage using the "fresh mountain air" scent and deodorants. If you notice something like that, warning bells must ring in your head - therefore you should look for other indications of flood damage.


Sometimes damaged vehicles are totaled by car insurance companies, sold through auctions of auto-salvage, shipped hundreds of miles away, and "repaired" by dealers. Then they are ready for resale. Happily, you can surely avoid cars damaged by flood and the innumerable problems that wait for you beneath those cars' hoods. And that is if you know, what problems to look for.


Unavoidable problems with flood-damaged cars


If car is damaged in flood it is able not to reveal its defects immediately. Wheel and brake, engine and transmission damages can evolve weeks after purchasing this "shiny new" vehicle.


If the car was completely immersed in water, it's wise to not even look at it. It could have been in sandy water, comparatively debris-free water, or sewer water. Long-term problems will crop out, if water has seeped either into the transmission or engine. For example, if the water brought sand inside the engine, blown and misfiring gaskets might be simply around the corner. Besides, immersed vehicles often develop electrical problems.


You also might get sick when driving a vehicle that was immersed in sewer water. High infection levels are probable, unless the agent has removed the carpet padding and sterilized the interior.


Can all of them be bad?


Not all of flooded vehicles are outcasts. You still might get a quality automobile if it has been thoroughly cleaned and properly restored. It includes: the carpet padding removal and its replacement; the vehicle's interior, including seats, removal; car disinfection; electrical connections greasing; cleaning the carpet and changing the seat foam; and replacement of any corroded components and wires. Anyways, you want to be sure that the car was properly repaired. Before buying an auto that can bury you in problems, you should take your vehicle for a pre-purchase inspection to a good mechanic. Ultimately, you might pay for an auto history, if you're still suspicious on whether or not a vehicle you're thinking of buying has really been flooded. Don't forget, that if the car was officially totaled by a car insurance provider, its title will demonstrate you that it has been in a flood only.

Is it already time to get rid of it?

Posted by Life Style | 6:04 PM

Life is good, but it would be much better if our vehicles would warn us when breath-ceasing repair declares or inescapable deputizing lays in wait at the other side of the corner.


People in general need help to recognize it's time to dispose of their ride - be it an absolutely new Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, a five-years-old Toyota Tacoma, a or thirteen-years-old Chrysler LeBaron replaceable.


So, here you have five wise steps to help you make a not easy but satisfactory settlement.



1. Check your lifestyle reality.


Ask yourself or a friend, "Is what I'm driving serving my current necessities?"


Mazda Miata might have made you the King of Cool when you were by yourself. But when you began to add little children to your palace, that tiny sports vehicle became royally unpractical. It's time to get a larger carriage.


2. Check your economic reality


Make certain you have a car you can afford. Embrace everything, not only the monthly auto loan payment. Count the price of maintenance and insurance, divided to a monthly average, and don't forget to include the terrorizing fuel prices and you'll see that auto loan payment isn't the biggest hole in your personal budget.


3. Pay attention to the effect of "Gut-Wrench-In-Its-Presence".


If you only think of driving your auto menaces to double you end up in pain, rid yourself of it. Seriously, if you hate your car and have no practical necessities that outbid your problem-solving, then trade it in or sell it. For real, life is too short.


4. Be careful with the "My Mechanic Knows My Credit Card Number by Heart" syndrome.


If your vehicle has been repaired three times during the past year - even reasonable repairs - it's not a normal auto to drive.


For those who own older autos, the rule to follow is: in case you have to make three repairs during any period of a year, add it up to the value of the car's resale, abate your losses and escape.


5. Watch with special attention for the two features of big trouble.


Take in account: blue smoke means bad news. That smoke out the eduction pipe means your oil burns, which probably means you will have to change your engine. Not cheap at all.
