			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>HTC and Beats partnership is no secret to anyone. Beats by Dr. Dre has comes up with a wireless headphone. The headphone will comes with bluetooth wireless capability.  </p>

<p><span id="more-18774"></span></p>
<p>The device can be used for both headphones and a headset for calls. You can control the headphone directly since the play, pause, volume up down and more are placed directly on the headphone. It appears that the headphone is for mobile used. We can see the headphone comes with the HTC Sensation 2 or the HTC Runnymede.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Early Termination Fees are the pits. No doubt about it. And they&#8217;re gradually getting worse, considering two of the largest wireless carriers in the United States have hiked up their ETF to (ridiculously) high prices. Sure, they take $10 off every month you keep your contract, but still. Seeing that initial $325 or $350 is pretty daunting for most customers. Thankfully, the FCC wants to help you out, and they&#8217;re giving some free advice because of it.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/FCC-logo21.jpg" alt="" title="" width="250" height="220" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9869" /></p>
<p><span id="more-9866"></span></p>
<p>The FCC wants to help educate customers on ETFs, so that they don&#8217;t feel like they&#8217;re getting bamboozled if they suddenly have to be charged. They also want you to be able to make informed decisions, even before you sign that contract, to judge whether or not the contract you&#8217;re about to sign is even worth it. To that end, one of the things the FCC suggests is that, if you use your cell phone sparingly, and don&#8217;t necessarily need unlimited minutes, texts, and data, you might not need to get a contract. (Never you mind that contract-free plans now include unlimited everything now.)</p>
<p>Additionally, the FCC suggests that you ask your salesperson as many questions regarding the ETF, and your cell phone and contract, as possible. Such as: would you be willing to buy your device out-right, to avoid the ETF. Consumers should also ask, in regards to their particular carrier, how the ETF is prorated. Also, find out how long you have to &#8220;test&#8221; a device, whether it&#8217;s 14 or 30 days, before an ETF is actually &#8220;activated.&#8221; Check out more information from the <a href="http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/index.do?document=298416">FCC&#8217;s site</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever been sitting in a cafe, playing around on the available WiFi network there, and had the sudden urge to just set up a chat room with everyone else in the establishment? Sounds like a good time to you? Well, Nokia agrees, and that&#8217;s why they&#8217;ve come up with Instant Community: a way to create and organize impromptu networks for chatting it up, and sharing your media.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Nokia-Instant-Community.jpg" alt="" title="" width="540" height="225" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9840" /></p>
<p><span id="more-9839"></span></p>
<p>The system is designed to make the Nokia N900 an ad-hoc WiFi connection point. From there, other devices can connect to that, in which turns them into yet <em>another</em> ad-hoc WiFi connection point. Basically, if there were enough people out there doing the same thing, you could potentially fill up an entire stadium with the instant chatting goodness, as each device acts as another repeater, sending the signal along.</p>
<p>As of right now, the initial app that&#8217;s creating all the stir of good news is one that allows for large group chatting, which also allows for users to send picture and video messages. The text-based messages would be pushed to the devices without a problem, but with the ad-hoc and multiple devices running on the Instant Community, there&#8217;s a lot of latency involved; so Nokia figured out a way to make sending those picture and video message easier: links. As of right now, Nokia&#8217;s N900 is getting all of the attention. At least, one&#8217;s running MeeGo, anyway. There&#8217;s talk that a Symbian device is running the goodness, too, so that opens up the door for quite a few Nokia-based devices out there to get in on the goodness. Unfortunately, Nokia still has a lot of room to axe this project, but we&#8217;ll hope that they greenlight it and we can get an official release date soon. Check out the video below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.slashphone.com/sprint-and-walmart-come-together-to-bring-you-common-cents-139675">Prepaid services</a> are definitely taking a far more mainstream appeal to the mass market, and we don&#8217;t see that being a bad thing at all. Sure, it means you won&#8217;t get a huge selection of handsets, and you do have to buy the phone you want without a subsidized price tag, but at least you don&#8217;t have to tie yourself down to a contract. T-Mobile USA wants to make the idea of prepaid wireless a little easier for you, so they&#8217;re launching two new plans starting this Wednesday, and they start at $15.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/T-Mobile-USA-logo-580x386.jpg" alt="" title="" width="580" height="386" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9715" /></p>
<p><span id="more-9714"></span></p>
<p>The $15 plan, which is per month, is mainly for those who text, and rarely use voice calls. Designed to give the customer an unlimited amount of text, video, and picture messages to send and receive, it should be perfect for anyone out there who hates using their cell phone to, you know, call people. You will be able to make nationwide calls for just $.10 per minute, though. So at least the option is there.</p>
<p>But, if you&#8217;re someone who actually calls people <em>and</em> texts quite a bit, then T-Mobile thinks you might want their $50 per month prepaid plan. This features unlimited voice and text, including picture, video, and standard text messages. Both plans are obviously designed for a particular person, and we imagine that that&#8217;s going to attract quite a few new customers. What about you? Are you interested?</p>
