Verizon Wireless will have better reception on their iPhone
Apple has redesigned the iPhone 4′s antennas for Verizon, perhaps to foil the “death grip” problem that roiled AT&T customers last summer, an expert said today.

New unlimited $60 a month prepaid with at&t
At&t is offering an unlimited prepaid plan for $60 a month. This plan will also give unlimited text after 2 days on the plan.
The details are still vague to me but what I can gather so far is that you must activate your cell phone on the 25 cents flat rate prepaid offer and then you can change it to the $60 a month unlimited nationwide talk. Then after 2 days being on the $60 unlimited prepaid plan, unlimited messaging would be added at no extra cost. Within the 2 days waiting for the unlimited messaging to be activated any text would be charged 20 cents pay per use and 25 cents pay per use for picture messaging.
This will change everything with at&t offering unlimited talk for $60 prepaid, why would you pay $59.99 for 900 minutes post pay with a 2 year contract. Does this mean at&t will be changing their post pay plans? Let see what impact this will have on at&t and the other major wireless providers. I will offer this prepaid plan with and without a cell phone.
Since I first posted about this preplan withat&t I have gotten people emailing me saying they have called at&t and no one knows about this plan. I now know it is only offered in Las Vegas and South Florida. I will sell anyone this prepaid offer and mail the cell phone or sim card to them and we could use Payapl so everyone is protected. For more information on this please contact me.
Posting on my Blog from my Blackberry
I could always post from my Blackberry with email with WordPress but with the Godaddy Blog feature and the new Bolt browser I can put html links into the Blogs easy with the Blackberry. I just made one up below for the Samsung Jack. I use the Blackberry browser to copy the image link and the landing page URL for the Samsung Jack. Then I put together to form that link below. What I shall do is create these ads and links from my computer and store them on my notes in Outlook. That way after I sync my Blackberry with Outlook I will have the links on my Blackberry saved in notes so all I have to do when I want to put one in a post is copy and paste.

Bolt new web browser for Blackberry
I downloaded Bolt a web browser for my Blackberry Bold. What I can say so far is great. This is exactly the way you see the web pages on a computer or the iPhone but on a Blackberry. I am able to go to pages that I could not properly see before and the pages download fast. I can also copy and paste into the url something I could not do with Opera Mini. This new browser allows me to do updates with my Blackberry to Facebook ads, Mobilewiseguy Blog and pull up sites in seconds that took me minutes before in the Blackberry or Media Net browser.
I got the Bolt browser for Crackberry.com I know you will thank me just put this URL www.boltbrowser.com/ in you Blackberry or Media Net browser and download the Bolt browser for Blackberry.
I have been waiting for the new Skyfire browser for Blackberry because it let you see video from Hulu, Youtube, CNN news video and a lot more sites. I downloaded Skyfire to my Samsung Blackjack 2 and my LG Incite but after stumbling on Bolt I am happy to say I will be busy doing a lot more with my Blackberry in the next few days especially with my new Blog
