CG Holiday 2007 Recommendation: Helio's Ocean
YouTube is represented, and a neat tool you won’t find on the iPhone: a built-in MySpace app. Not for everyone, but for most of you. Oh, and the 2-Megapixel camera on the Ocean has a flash and takes video, with direct uploads to Flickr or YouTube. That is awesome.
Besides what’s inside, the Ocean’s design is great. A responsive dual-sliding mechanism that gives you T9 for dialing and QWERTY for text and email and everything else. What’s more, the unlimited pretty-much-everything plans are highly competitive, with the $99 plan featuring unlimited minutes.
So there you have it, readers: as a guy who could have any cellphone from any provider in the USA, my piece is the Ocean from Helio, and I’ve never thought twice about it.
