    And now it’s time for the LG Cookie! Doesn’t the name sounds delicious? Well, the phone comes in three colors: pink, grey and black. Mine is black. It has two ‘desktops’: one for the widgets and one for your favorite contacts. The last dekstop allows you to easily phone and/or send text messages to your favorite contacts.

    The interface is exact the same as LG Renoir and LG Viewty, only it is hard to find themes for the LG Cookie. I was browsing the web and the online theme I could find is this cool Apple iPhone-theme. The LG Cookie comes with four different games: Wheel of Fortune, Pipes and a game with dices (wich is great if you lost your dices and want to play a game). If you register your phone at lgmobile.com, you can get 400 points and download game for 90 points/each. Any more games were hard to find, untill I read this topic.

    The camera has no flashing light (I don’t know what’s the word) and has 3,0 MP. My LG Cookie didn’t come with a MicroSD, but you can purchase one if you want. It has, of course, Bluetooth, Music Player, FM Radio, Organiser, Calculator and a Browser (No Wi-Fi, but wap) It has a painting program, with different colours and stuff.

    Overall I give this mobile an 8,0!

  2. The search query

    August 17, 2009 by Mike

    It has been a long search query but I finally managed to find the singer of the Volkswagen Polo-commercial. You know, that commercial that you see like ten thousend times a day? I saw many Volkswagen-commercials at YouTube, before I finally found that one! I even searched at Wikipedia…! Well, the song ‘Bad Influance’ is from ‘Pink’. But hea, I now know that it has only been released in Australia and it has also been used for an Australian telecom company. Intresting, not? No, I didn’t thought so.

  3. Nokia N79 Review

    August 16, 2009 by Mike

    Nokia’s. Known as compact, simple, classy phones. But the N79 is the complete opposite. The great thing about WLAN (Wireless LAN) is that almost every household has one connection. It should be crazy as the mobile phone-producer didn’t do something with that. Just log in on your WLAN Connection and start surfing. Websites such as MSN, Ebuddy, Google and social communities make apps that you can install very simple on your mobile and use them. MSN-ing, watch movies at YouTube, searching with Google or checking the weather at MSN.com, it’s all very simple to reach!

    The Nokia-interface is very good. There are billions of themes avaible on the web that you can use to pimp up that interface. I think pcs and mobile phones have more things in common these days than ever. Take for example the ‘File manager’ on the Nokia. Isn’t that just similiar to the Windows Explorer? The only difference between mobile phones and pcs is ofcourse that mobiles are for calling and texting!

    You can listen to FM Station (with the beautiful headset), but you can also listen to the webstations via network or WLAN. Besides listening to FM you can also send out FM! Up to 4 meters on a by you chosen frequency. Example – I was sending out at 107,5 Mhz, my radio was also at 107,5 Mhz. I heard the song from my mobile on my radio!

    The screen flips if your flip it over, that’s very handy for internet or so. The mobile comes with a 4GB memory card, 5 megapixel at the back and a little at the front.

    The back has three different designs. At this moment I have red, but I can change it into white or blue.

    Overall, I give this mobile a thick fat A!
