Cricket Helps to Rebuild Las Vegas Home

May 18th, 2012

Dale.Buckey

The Las Vegas Cricket team came together with Home Service Plus on April 24th, in honor of National Rebuilding Day, to unveil the revitalization to one residents’ home. The team worked tirelessly to make a positive impact and change this local homeowner’s life.

The homeowner, a widow with a developmentally challenged daughter, had lived in her home for approximately five years after purchasing it in as-is condition for a bargain price with her late husband’s death benefits. The 67-year-old home was in dire need of repairs, with damage including a collapsed roof, no heat, no substantial cooling unit and a serious insect problem. The house received a complete interior rebuild with new roof, inner walls, windows, carpet, paint, electrical wiring, plumbing and appliances, plus exterior paint and landscaping of the front yard.

The homeowners, Nancy and Destiny Christensen, enjoyed a day of horseback riding and bowling while the volunteers put all the finishing touches on the house. Upon arriving back at their home they were greeted by all the volunteers and FOX 5 TV cameras to unveil their beautiful new home and enjoy a fun barbeque to celebrate. It was a touching moment to see the Cricket and Home Service Plus teams come together and make such a significant impact in the life of this family.

8 Android Apps New Moms Will Love

May 16th, 2012

Dale.Buckey

It’s no secret that being a mom is one of the most busy and stressful jobs in the world. Owning an Android phone isn’t going to change that, but there is a wide selection of apps that can make a new mom’s life a little easier. Need an easy and inexpensive Mother’s Day gift idea? Update her phone with these essential Android apps for moms.

My Pregnancy Today

If your mom is a mom-to-be, check out My Pregnancy Today. Developed by trusted online pregnancy authority BabyCenter, this app is a must have mobile resource for expecting mothers. Enter your baby’s due date to get a dynamic daily guide to pregnancy, including information on bodily changes, fetal development, diet pointers, and general advice through your pregnancy and beyond. Among the best features of this app are the illustrated charts and diagrams which provide helpful visual references for those curious about baby’s development.

Baby Monitor

If you have a little one in the house, Baby Monitor is an ingenious app that turns your phone into a fully functional baby monitor. Just activate the app and place it near your baby’s crib. The phone keeps track of noise levels and if it detects crying or other excessive noise, it will contact you by calling another phone that you specify. You can also set it up to take a picture if the alarm goes off, giving you an instant look at what’s going on in the other room.

White Noise

It may seem strange, but a little bit of noise may actually help newborns sleep. Few people realize that the inside of a uterus is extremely loud, and white noise may help replicate conditions inside of the womb and put baby at ease. White Noise Lite is a free app that can generate number of soothing sounds including radio static, which is known to help babies sleep for longer periods of time.

Baby ESP

There’s a lot to keep track of when raising a young child. Baby ESP is an app designed to help parents from becoming overwhelmed. It’s essentially a custom organizer with a baby-centric interface that tracks naps, breast feedings, baths, and diaper changes. It’s especially helpful if someone else is temporarily watching the baby so they can know exactly what needs to be done next. As a plus, the data is easy to export for your own records or to show to a medical professional.

Famigo

Famigo is like a child lock for your phone. It provides a child friendly interface that only gives access to apps that you’ve deemed appropriate, so kids can freely choose games and educational apps without surfing the net or accidentally (or purposefully) texting mommy’s boss. It also has a wish list feature that lets kids choose new apps they want that you can later decide to purchase. Just enter a special password to return to your phone’s normal functionality.

Zebra Paint and Kid’s Finger Paint

If you need a little peace and quiet, Android games can serve as the perfect diversion for children (and the young at heart). Zebra Paint is like a digital coloring book that lets kids fill-in a wide selection of charming animal scenes. It’s easy to learn and provides a creative time killer for car rides or doctor appointments. You might also try Kid’s Finger Paint app, a blank canvas with a kid-friendly interface that lets your future Picasso doodle custom creations.

Dr. Seuss’s ABC

In addition to playing games, kids love to be entertained with high quality children’s e-books. Many of Dr. Seuss’s classics have been optimized for the Android for an affordable price. Dr. Seuss’s ABC is a great way for kids to practice the alphabet with a fun, interactive component that takes advantage of the smart phone’s unique capabilities. Kids can highlight words, explore supplementary audio and illustrations that will keep them engaged and promote reading.

Prepaid Phones On Sale This Week May 13 May 19

Welcome to Prepaid Phone News’ regular Sunday feature listing all current prepaid phone deals in one place.

The deal of the week is the Verizon Samsung Illusion Android phone for $ 149.99 at BestBuy stores and bestbuy.com. This phone was just released last week for $ 169.99 so getting $ 20 off so soon after release is unusual.

The Illusion is notable for having a 1 Ghz processor which is faster than what’s typically found at this price point. It also has a 3.5 inch 320 x 480 px screen, 3 MP camera and a trendy curved glass screen. The only downside is that the phone only works with Verizon’s $ 80/month unlimited prepaid smartphone plan.

More Details of Verizon’s $80 Android Deal Emerge

More Details of Verizons $80 Android Deal Emerge

It’s been a week since a top Verizon exec revealed that the carrier would launch a prepaid Android “something” soon. Most initial reports, including ours indicated that it would be an Android phone for $ 80 and that it would be released this week. The week is almost over and there’s been no further news. I’ve been digging around and found a couple of interesting bits of information.

Seeking Alpha has published a transcript of the Verizon conference call where the $ 80 thing was mentioned and what Verizon CFO Francis Shammo actually said was:

“And in the next week or so, you’re going to see us add in a smartphone to our prepaid product on an $ 80 price point with 1 gigabit of data.”

That’s sufficiently ambiguous that it could mean either an $ 80 phone or an $ 80 plan, or both. Today a HowardForums user reported that a Verizon customer service representative told him that it was an $ 80/month plan launching May 1st. The plan would include unlimited voice and messaging and 1 GB of data. The only phones allowed on this new plan would be the Motorola Citrus and the Samsung Illusion (shown above L to R). The CSR didn’t know the phone prices. The details match an earlier rumor so I tend to believe this is the real deal.

The Citrus gets universally bad reviews and should be avoided. If there’s an $ 80 phone, the Citrus would be it. The Illusion, which is a good low-mid range Android phone with a decent screen, 1 Mhz processor and so-so camera, is a better choice.

The $ 80 price point seems high in comparison with what other carriers offer but it’s right in line with Verizon’s other prepaid unlimited plans:

$ 50 “Unleashed” unleashed everything plan that’s restricted to a few very basic phones.
$ 74.99 Prepaid smartphone plan which comes with unlimited data, 450 minutes and 20¢ texts and works with any Verizon non-LTE phone, except the iPhone.
$ 94.99 plan that’s the same as the $ 74.99 one with the addition of unlimited messaging.

I’m sure the Verizon name and retail presence will help to sell a fair number of $ 80 plans. But Prepaid Phone News readers know then can get the same 1 GB of data, unlimited voice and messaging on the Verizon network for $ 55/month with PagePlus or 2 GB with unlimited talk and text for $ 60 on RedPocket or Jolt or $ 45 on StraightTalk.
