Cell Phone and Plan for Power Users
Using technology to do business worldwide...
Techno Savvy Cell Phone Users
A classic road warrior, you use your phone to stay in touch with the
key people in your life wherever you are, whenever you want. So if you
get more calls before 9 a.m. than most people get all day, you need a
plan with lots of minutes and plenty of flexibility. For starters, get
service from a provider that offers nationwide coverage so that when work
or play takes you out of town, you won't get hit with hefty roaming fees.
Also, find a provider that'll include text messaging so that friends and
coworkers can send short correspondences, which can be quicker to retrieve
than voicemail.
If you're an early adopter type, you'll probably be interested in a plan
that provides wireless Internet or Web access.
Cellular Phones
A wireless phone is more than just a convenience, it's a critical element
of your mobile command center. Making and receiving calls is only part
of the equation. Look into phones that have text messaging, paging, or
WAP capabilities for checking your email and browsing the Wireless Web.
A phone that's lightweight won't add excess baggage to an already heavy
travel load. Cell phones these days are under 6 ounces with the ultra
lightweight coming in at under 4 ounces. Also extended memory is good
to store names and numbers of clients and colleagues in your phone book.
Service Plans
You'll also want to consider a comprehensive calling plan that enables
you to call and access data whether in San Francisco, Miami or New York.
Solid national (and even global) coverage could be a vital part of your
cell phone arsenal. For heavy business travelers, look into purchase plans
that have plenty of minutes and do not charge for roaming and long distance.
Many plans include upwards of 1000, or even unlimited minutes in the monthly
fee.
Accessories
Rapid battery chargers or extended life batteries ensure ample power
no matter where you are. Also consider a sleek leather carrying case to
protect your cell phone investment
