Most of us are familiar with the BlueTooth headsets but now it seems that women are going to have one customized and certainly designed especially for the feminine gender. They are called PinkTooth wireless headsets, a new hands-free headset for cellphones released by chicBuds.com. Other than being comfortable for her, these new PinkTooth is lightweight and boasts of a sleek black frame that is complemented by either pink or clear crystals.
While the Swarovski crystals make an impact, they do so by adding a depth of color and texture that is chic and elegant rather than gaudy or girly. Because of its small size, PinkTooth is easy to carry and stays out of the way of hair and glasses that can knock headsets loose.

It seems as AT&T is learning with other companies, and decided to create a new store that really provides a good experience to their customers, and not the same old “buy this and go home” scene. The store is located in Albany, NY, more specifically at 1762 Central Avenue in Colonie.
What kind of unusual features does the AT&T Colonie store has to offer?
- Productivity solutions thanks to the AT&T staff teaching how to use e-mail function and Microsoft applications on PDAs, smartphones, and other cellphones.
- 6 demo units of the iPhone
- 2 flat-panel HD screens to use with other AT&T products

The popular US carrier Virgin Mobile has made a few changes on international call rates, and now it is cheaper than ever to make phone calls to Latin American countries and others. The sudden change is probably related to the worldwide (money) crisis, and by dropping the rates they can get more clients and still have a good margin of profit.
So, how much does it cost to make calls to Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico, China, and Hong Kong among other countries? As low as five cents per minute! When comparing prices with other carriers, the value is higher by 100% or 200%.
One of the advantages that came with this modification is that Virgin customers don’t need to buy a special card to make international calls. Just use the existing ones, or buy a normal Top-Up card.
Check all the international calling rates at Virgin website.
Dan Cipoletti from Vigin Mobile, comments:
These rates are a great value and make Virgin Mobile USA an easy choice for international callers. (more…)

Classy is just another word that describes Samsung’s Ultra Series and the Soul B is definitely not an exception. Samsung drops the 5-megapixel camera and the slider form factor from the Samsung Soulto accommodate 3 megapixels and a candybar design, although I wish they had carried over the Magic Touch keypad technology seen on the Soul, which changes colors depending on where you navigate. With LED flash accompanying the camera, this cell phone also has 1GB of internal memory with a microSD slot for further storage needs. Connectivity seems to be top-notch with tri-band GSM support and HSDPA, but I see no mention of WiFi, assuming Bluetooth is already onboard.
The Samsung Soul B will be available in Germany around June in a choice of five colors. No mention is made of a price yet.
