One thing about headsets these days is that they cater to a specific platform and niche. And while many people need to be informed on the limitations for some headsets that they carry, TCM Mobile takes all that away. TCM Mobile unveils a new dual band headset that can be used over GSM cellular networks when users are outside the TCM coverage and Cellular VoIP networks. The new dual band headsets from TCM Mobile will make its debut this July.

By default, dual band headsets are set to cater to GSM cellular networks by default. With these new dual band headsets from TCM Mobile it is the opposite. They use the Cellular VoIP networks by default. The same technology may soon be covering a wide area of network if negotiations push through. Just the same, TCM Mobile is deploying on a gradual basis to provide them the convenience of carrying just one device without any problems along the way.

“While our new handset is scheduled for release in two to three months, we can currently take any existing dual band handset available on the market and, together with its manufacturer, embed TCM’s revolutionary, patented software into it. This represents a significant opportunity for these manufacturers to grow sales of their own branded handsets in conjunction with the deployment of TCM’s Cellular VoIP network,” said a TCM Mobile senior executive.

Samsung Jitterbug phones were specifically marketed to seniors, offering a simple phone to operate. However, no thanks to a potential glitch where they may fail to connect to 911 services, Samsung has issued a voluntary recall for the said jitterbug phones.

Samsung may have developed a simple and easy to use phone for seniors but if this important aspect of the actual phone’s use is not addressed, they are practically useless. When it comes to seniors, ease of use is important. They are not too pleased nor impressed with the various technological enhancements we see today.

Hence, the one most important option that is important for any phone should be its main feature. Without it, elders don’t even need to carry a mobile phone. Well, you can at least credit Samsung for making the recall rather than allowing the market to find out first for themselves.

Teletouch Communications Inc. continues its drive to put e-waste in its place as the company has announced that they will be continuing its “Go Green with Hawk” cell phone recycling and disposal program at the upcoming Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial PGA TOUR Golf Tournament, being held Monday May 25 through Sunday May 31, 2009, at the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas.

In conjunction with Colonial staff and PGA TOUR officials, spectators will be encouraged to bring their old, unused, and in many cases, no-longer-working cell phones to specially designed recycling bins at each of the major visitor entrances to the Colonial. Teletouch’s Hawk Electronics division staff members will empty them each day, and return collected items to the Company’s approximately 50,000sf warehouse and office facility in Fort Worth, Texas, for refurbishment for use by various Hawk-related charity groups, or proper disposal, as applicable.

Cell phones contain many toxic materials that pollute the environment and threaten human health. When recycled responsibly, many of the metals and other materials can be recycled, further helping to protect the planet.
