Another Cell Phone Myth
Posted by Joseph Brochin
I am sure some of you have seen the following e-mail and it goes something like this:
Subject: Here is something worth knowing if you have a mobile phone
Have you ever wondered why phone companies don’t seem interested in trying to prevent the theft of mobile phones? If you have ever lost, or had one stolen, andif you are on a plan, you still have to pay the plan approximately up to 24 months, and you have to buy another handset and enter into another
contract. This is more revenue for the phone company.
There is a simple way of making lost or stolen mobiles useless to
thieves and the phone companies know about it, but keep it quiet.
To check your mobile phone’s serial number, key in the following on your phone:
star-hash-zero-six-hash ( * # 0 6 # ) and a fifteen digit code will appear on the screen. This is unique to your handset.
Write it down and keep it safe. Should your mobile phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset, so even if the thief changes the sim card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won’t get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can’t use/sell it either. If everybody did this, there would be no point in stealing mobile phones. You may want to send this to as many people with mobiles as possible. No charge for directory assistance. Phone companies are charging us $1.00 or more for 411- information calls when they don’t have to.When you need to use the 411 / information option!, simply dial 1-800-FREE-411 or 1 800 373 3411 without incurring a charge.Works on home phones and cellphones.

Photos Transferred to DVD
What are the advantages of using Photos Transferred to DVD? The answers are many. The predominant reason is that by preserving your photos on digital media provides a means by which loved ones can easily share their photos without the worry of time taking it’s toll on the photographs. Digital photographs do not fade, tear or become “dog eared” as they are viewed by, or shared with your loved ones. They can be viewed over and over again with the same color quality that the original photograph was captured with.
Reasons for choosing Photos Transferred to DVD services:
1. Photos Transferred to DVD uses the latest technology to digitally enhance your photographs. Take for example the photographs taken around 1925: Photograph #1 is the original photograph, Photograph #2 is the color enhanced photo (which considering the condition of the original photograph is great) and Photograph #3 is the ‘Editors’ photo choice for the collection.
2. Photos Transferred to DVD adds custom effects such as, pan and zoom to your photos. We can make a photograph appear on-screen as long as you like. Five seconds is the average time we make a photo appear but, if it is a important shot, we can make last for as long as you like.
3. Photos Transferred to DVD has over 2,500 song titles in our library. If we don’t have the music you want to hear, we will gladly order it for you. Photos Transferred to DVD will never keep any music we order on your behalf for more than 30 days
Personal tributes have become very popular. Not just for movie stars or rock stars. Personal tributes have become popular for Funerals, Bar Mitzvas, Graduation Ceremonies and much more.
