Mobile technology has come a long way since its inception. Today, we see all kinds of mobile phones with a huge amount of features included in it. There are unimaginable amount of features in every different kinds of mobile phones today. One of the most popular GSM mobile phones today has to be Nokia’s N series’ N95. I have heard talks of Nokia releasing a Nokia N96 phone. Don’t know if it has been released yet. One of my favorite cell phones is Apple’s iPhone. It looks great and has a huge amount of functions in it. It also includes Wi-fi for internet browsing and also includes all the features found on an iPod.

There are a lot of things you need to consider before buying a new cell phone. The first thing people look at is the design of the cell phone. Well for me, Nokia N95 is one of the best looking and full of feature cell phone in todays market. For people who are planning on buying a new cell phone, you might want to check out iMobilePlaza. They are an online cell phone seller and have a huge collection of the most popular and best mobile phones around. The cell phone I want i.e. Nokia N95 8GB costs $551. Its a lot cheaper than on a shop. Don’t know if it is the cheapest price available for a Nokia N95 8GB online though.

At iMobilePlaza, you will be able to find all phone manufactured by Apple, HP, HTC, Blackberry, Dopod, Eten, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Motorola, Siemens, LG, PalmOne, O2, Benq-Siemens and Vertu. Other good cell phones available at iMobilePlaza are Eten Glofiish X800 and HTC/Qtek P4350 is not bad either. HTC/Qtek P4350 has a full querty keyboard so it will be a lot easier to type. iMobilePlaza is still fairly new as it was just established in 2005 but not far behind other well established shops. Their payment system is fairly simple and they accept all international credit card, Western Union payments and wire transfers. I wish they offered paypal as the payment system as it is quite easy and hassle free to pay via paypal.

When iPhone first arrived in the market, it was on an AT&T network and to even activate the iPhone, people had to call AT&T. There was a huge mess up when the Apple’s iPhone was first released in the market. Since then, the price of an iPhone dropped quite dramatically and Apple also dumped the 4GB version of iPhone. Now an iPhone is available in two sizes, an 8GB version which costs $400 and a 16GB version which costs $500. These prices seems reasonable but there is a catch, you will need to subscribe to AT&T service which is quite expensive. At least a two year contract is needed. I have never liked what the mobile service providers have done. Locking a phone so that it just works on their network is a bit unfair. Since this started happening, people (mobile experts) started to look for a way unlock it.

It took not that long for mobile experts to crack the Apple and AT&T locking mechanism. The first iphone was unlocked on August 24, 2007 (according to engadget). Now people can use any SIM cards from any subscribers and use it on an iPhone without a problem. Nowadays, we can unlock almost all kinds of phones by using a software. Well some of these softwares can be used for free and some charge a small fee for unlocking a phone.

Well if you already have an iphone with an AT&T subscription or from any other mobile networks, you can ditch it right away and use any SIM card you like. There are some iPhone Unlock Service available online which will do the dirty work for you but they will charge a small fee. iphone-sim-unlock.com provides iPhone Unlock software for a fee of $29 which is a negligible amount if you consider the subscription fee you have to pay to AT&T. AT&T’s cheapest plan for an iPhone costs around $60 per month. So the price of unlocking an iPhone by using iPhone-Sim-Unlock.com is pretty low (half the cost of 1 month AT&T fee). There are locked iPhones from all the top mobile service providers and this software will unlock it all. It just takes around ten minutes to unlock an iPhone. There are only three steps you need to follow, 1st sign-up for iPhone Unlock service, secondly login and purchase the iphone unlocking service for $29 and then unlock your iPhone. Thats it, nothing else to do. Doesn’t matter what version of iPhone firmware you use, their unique software will unlock it for you. Even a bricked iPhone won’t be a problem. By paying a one time fee of $29, you will be receiving future updates and service for life. There are also exclusive iPhone wallpapers package available to use free of charge and another good thing about their service is, they provide 24 hour support to their customers.
