CECT A988 Review

I've had my hands on this CECT A988 TV phone for a couple of weeks now and it is a real contender. It can do anything that you would need the iPhone to do (web browsing, music playing, video playing and recording, taking pictures, texting (has handwriting recognition), Bluetooth, etc. But, it has made some improvements on the iPhone also. It is quad band and works anywhere. Unlike iPhone you can remove the battery yourself, it has SIX speakers (as opposed to iPhone's 3), you can use any carrier and perhaps the best, coolest feature about this phone is the "TV Out" or "TV export" function, which means that you can you can play video clips onto your phone on your TV, a very cool, unique feature. I got this phone for about $110 on Ebay. This is the only place where I buy my electronics because the competition on Ebay keeps the prices down and I purchased from a powerseller with 100% positive feedback. You can see the CECT A988s currently for sale by clicking here. No worries if you're not en Ebay member, you can sign up free (anywhere in the world) by clicking here.
