Unlocked Cell Phones
Like all electronics innovations, cell phones
were once thought of as a luxury; mobile phone companies had to give away free cell phones with service contracts to get people to try them. To prevent customer-hopping from contract to contract, they "locked" phones to work on only one network. Today, unlocked cell phones--cell phones not preset to one cell service provider--are available. It's a good plan, like online shopping at Overstock.com; a retail store not tied to one manufacturer can offer you the best merchandise, regardless of who put it together.
Why buy an unlocked cell phone? Freedom. Buying unlocked phones means you purchase exactly the phone, features and cell phone accessories you want. Bluetooth can tie your cellular phone to an earpiece or other accessories. Mobile phone cameras aren't as good as the best digital cameras on the market, but the best cell phone cameras are as good as many consumer electronics cameras. The FCC requires all cell phones to include GPS navigation, which can be a potentially lifesaving mobile phone feature in emergency situations. The new Wi-Fi networks popping up all over the place turn Internet-compatible cellular phones into surf-anywhere web browsers. Plus, you can have these mobile phone services on the compatible cell service network of your choice.
Speaking of compatibility, there are two popular types of cell networks, abbreviated GSM and CDMA. CDMA is the more popular phone technology in North America, GSM in the rest of the world. If you travel abroad often, a GSM phone is probably the better choice; you can switch cell phone service providers as often as you cross the border. If you only travel occasionally, CDMA works just as well; you can use it at home and rent a GSM cell phone if you go abroad. Not all phones work will all cell service providers, so you have to choose carefully; make Overstock.com part of the choice and you'll know you got a good deal.
