Sometimes we need to see certain things from different perspectives in order to understand
the whole truth. If detectives listened to only one eyewitness, then the totality of the crime
would be missing. They could head in the wrong direction, thereby letting a criminal go free
and possibly detaining an innocent person. Although game design isn't exactly like busting a
criminal, it is a lot like other parts of detective work. Designers attempt to determine why
certain aspects of a game work or don't work. They gather data and design a balanced
system, but the totality of success isn't seen until they gather eyewitness accounts from a
number of different perspectives. This is why today I want to look at the positive side of the
gear treadmill. Star Wars: The Old Republic launches a new game update today -- Update
1.6: Ancient Hypergate. Along with new warzone and space combat areas, this update adds
a new set of top-level PvP gear, gets rid of a PvP gear set, and makes the PvE gear
progression shorter by giving level 50s a set of Tionese gear. This update pretty much
defines power creep, and normally, I would say that this kind of thing should absolutely be
avoided in MMOs. However, this week, I'd like to take the opposite approach and examine
why this is a good thing.
As far as design goes, the Jitterbug Touch is identical to the Milano. It's short and squat, at
4.13 by 2.4 by 0.67 inches (HWD), and a bit heavy at 5.57 ounces. The back panel is made
of a matte gray soft-touch plastic and features the GreatCall name and logo in black beneath
an imprinted Kyocera logo. The display is a 3-inch, 320-by-240-pixel touch panel, which is
really starting to look lackluster. I dinged the Milano for this a year ago, and it only looks
worse now. Compared with the display on a standard feature phone it isn't terrible, but this is
about as low as you can go on a smartphone. The screen itself is too small, and the low
resolution makes everything look fuzzy or jagged. It becomes a little easier to see when you
crank up the brightness to the highest level, but the automatic setting is way too dark. The
Jitterbug Touch slides open to reveal a four-row QWERTY keyboard. It features keys that are
well-sized, raised, and backlit. It's easy to type on, though the phone itself is short, so there
isn't much room to stretch your thumbs out and really get going. Still, this phone will work just
fine if you want to send text messages or emails.
Note: The slideshow below shows the Boost Mobile model, but the Virgin Mobile model looks
identical. The Galaxy S II is a quad-band (800/850/1900/2600) CDMA/WiMAX phone that
runs on Sprint's 3G and 4G networks. There's also 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi. Reception is
average and call quality is good. Voices sound full, clear, and natural, with plenty of punch
and volume in the phone's earpiece. The speakerphone also sounds good but isn't loud

An take a look at the site here can imporve your sound experience, There's 54.8GB of
storage available on the 64GB handset I tested. There's no memory card slot, but with that
kind of storage, you should be fine for a while, and you can sync media via HTC's own
software or by dragging and dropping to the phone as a USB mass storage device. Beats
Audio software purportedly enhances the sound of your music on the One X+ when using
wired earphones or headphones. In practice, it boosts low frequencies and upper mids, and
also cranks the volume, which is cheating; in back-to-back comparisons, anything louder
almost always sounds better to the human ear. But once you back off the volume and make it
equal to what it was before, I found I preferred music with Beats Audio off. The enhanced
headphone amp sounded great through a pair of AKG K 350 earphones. Standalone videos
played smoothly in full screen mode, and looked resplendent on the HTC One X+'s display. I
had no problem playing any of my test files up to 1080p in resolution, except for DivX files,
which wouldn't play. Music refused to play wirelessly through Plantronics BackBeat Go
Bluetooth earphones, despite being paired properly. I'll chalk it up to a random incompatibility
issue with that set, because music did play fine (albeit in one ear) with the Plantronics
Voyager Legend headset, so A2DP streaming clearly works.
The bass distortion is not necessarily a deal breaker if you plan on listening at moderate,
safe listening levels, but it's nonetheless a bit of a disappointment in this high price range. If
what you seek as a pair of headphones with serious bass, but no distortion, you may wish to
consider the noise-canceling Logitech UE 6000 , which brings serious rumble without
distortion issues, even at top volumes—and it can be used in passive mode, as well. If noise
cancellation is your primary concern, it's really hard to beat the original champs: Both the
Bose QuietComfort 15 (a circumaural option) and the supra-aural (on-ear) QuietComfort 3
are excellent in terms of eliminating ambient noise without adding hiss. Our favorite current
combination of excellent audio quality and solid noise cancellation, however, is the AKG K
490 NC

3. It is a nice touch to see the splitter that allows you to share your audio with someone while
you use the US 6000 headphones. The soft zippered traveling case is well designed and
holds your headphones and cable with more than enough room for extra AAA batteries.
There is even a pocket in the case to keep the cable and batteries secure. The nice thing
about a soft case like this is that it folds up flat and hides away easily while you are using the
headphones. The headphones fold flat with the earpieces resting on top of each other as
both arms fold in 90 degrees. I can easily hold the folded headphones in one hand when they
are folded up. You then fold out the arms and they click lock into place. You can then fold
each side down just over an inch to get them to fit your head. The earpieces rotate back and
forth just about 10 degrees to fit your head shape. A red R is on the right side and white L on
the left side. There is an very nice soft padded piece at the top of the headphones. The top
side of the headphones are covered in black, matte soft touch material. Each earpiece has
soft thick padding (made of memory foam with a leather exterior feel) with blue material
covering the speakers. There is a glossy blue band around the earpiece with matte and
glossy black around the earpiece. On the left earpiece there is a button at the bottom that
you press in to release the battery cover. The cover doesn't come all the way off, just enough
to allow you to access the batteries and replace them. On the right earpiece you will find the
3.5mm headset jack at the bottom with a button and indicator light on the top. The button is
used to turn the active noise-canceling on and off. The indicator light turns green when ANC
is on.
The blue cable is about four feet in length with the controller just about six inches below the
headphone connector. There is a microphone on the back side of the controller and three
buttons on the front. The top and bottom buttons are used for volume up and down control.
The center media button has several functions, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to music and
podcasts with the Logitech UE 6000 headphones and found them to be extremely
comfortable for extended play. I watched movies on my iPad, used them for calls, and
streamed music from my devices to the headphones. Just like the Logitech UE earphones I
tried earlier, these sounded fantastic and I think they should be at the top of your list for ANC
headphones. They are $100 less than the most common ANC headphones I see while
traveling, the Bose QuietComfort, and I hope to see more people trying them out. The
headphones are fairly light and also very well made. I can't judge their long term quality or
reliability without further testing.

4. An motorola earpiece can imporve your sound experience, You can purchase the Logitech
UE 6000 headphones for $199.99 directly from Logitech with free shipping included. The
headphones are also available at retailers like Best Buy and the Apple Store. I recently tried
out the Beats Executive headphones and it is nice to see a pair of Beats targeted beyond the
youth market. However, they have a limitation that concerns me and that is they do not work
at all without batteries. The Logitech UE 6000 headphones are $100 less and they work
WITHOUT batteries just fine. Of course, the sound is better with ANC activated, but if your
batteries die you can still use the headphones and enjoy your audio. I knew the UE 9000
headphones were wireless with a rechargeable battery, but was concerned about them being
Bluetooth only since you cannot use Bluetooth on an airplane. It turns out the headphones do
come with and support a cabled connection, the same as the one found in the UE 6000
detailed above. The molded case has a couple pockets on the left side to store the charger
and the cable. On the right side there are two raised pieces where you place the earpieces to
hold them in the case. The UE 9000 headphones look like the UE 6000 with the glossy black
outside and blue highlights on the earpieces. The UE 9000 arms extend down over an inch
on each side to fit your head, just like the UE 6000. However, the arms do not fold over on
the UE 9000 and instead the earpieces rotate 90 degrees so that the headphones lie flat in
the molded case. The also move about 10 degrees back and forth to fit your head too.
Since this is a smartphone, you'll also want a data plan, which allows you to access the
internet on the go. GreatCall's "Get Started" plan gets you 10MB of data for $2.49 per month.
That sounds like a bargain, but keep in mind that 10MB of data won't go very far. You can
use that up just by checking email. Calls do not consume data and you can always connect
your phone to Wi-Fi, but if you plan to surf the Web on Verizon's network, GreatCall offers
data plans up to 500MB per month for $25. The phone comes with an app to track your data
usage, and if you go over your montly limit, it costs 20 cents per 1MB. The Jitterbug Touch is
running Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread). Ordinarily, such an old version of Android would make
me cringe, but it's been Jitterbugged past the point of recognition. GreatCall has simplified
the OS with a new interface that makes it fast and easy to access often-used features. When
you turn the phone on, you get two main tabs at the top of the screen: Apps and People.
Each of these tabs, as well as the other menus, are laid out in scrolling lists with large fonts,
which makes it easy to figure out everything your phone can do. Apps is a list of the
applications you plan to use the most. It comes preloaded with Phone, Messaging, Camera,
and Gallery, which, if you're looking to keep things simple, are pretty much all you need. You
can add and remove apps from this list as you please. The People tab, meanwhile, allows
you to store your favorite contacts. There are also touch buttons on the bottom of the screen
which open tabs for All Apps and GreatCall services.
