As you, my loyal readers know, I am always on the endless search for a great deal. Of course, I am notoriously cheap so I am looking for deals particularly on things I need and use quite often. I am considering changing my internet service, as my current contract is about to expire. Now that I have a laptop, I am looking into wireless (which I know little to nothing about).
I have found a good site that utilizes searching in the same manner as Google, so that as many results as possible are included. This is a great advantage over only getting results whose owners have paid for their search results inclusion.
Anyway, back to the searching itself. I know next to nothing about wireless routers and such but now I have a lot more information to work with. I even know exactly what wireless card my laptop has, what speed it runs and what equipment it will work with.
Once I was done with that, I turned my attention to the never ending hunt for "the perfect cellphone." One of my friends got me addicted to this, I swear. I love to get my hands on different phones and test out all the features and such. Right now, I have a Nokia 5300 MusicXpress phone, which is great..but now I want to try out a completely different brand, Motorola. I have been notoriously against Motorola in the past, for the fact that they waste a lot of space on their phones with a wedge..of nothing. On their flip phones, this results in such a tiny screen; it's a wonder everyone with a Motorola phone doesn't have to get glasses. They do have a candy-bar style phone that I am wanting to try out, as it has a 5 MP camera on it. So, trying to find the lowest price on that, I searched it using ShopWiki. I got several results, with the price ranges included in the search results. I got search results from stores that I never would have expected and some I did. Either way, I had many more options than when using the traditional shopping search engines.
