Read quick descriptions below of some of the latest wireless technology to get you started.
Camera Phones:
With technology proliferating our lives in every facet, convergence of devices has become a natural progression. Many phones on the market today offer integrated digital cameras at various resolutions. Standard resolution has evolved to anywhere from VGA (640 X 480 pixels) to 1.3 MegaPixels. These usually result in pictures suitable for printing clear 4 X 6 inch pictures. All Wireless Carriers offer the ability to send and receive these pictures with other capable phones, or regular email. Many people choose to save these pictures to a memory card and utilize retailers, such as Costco, to print on photograph paper. Wireless Advocates offers both camera phones and non-camera phones for customers that may not be permitted to carry an imaging device at their place of work.

Bluetooth:
We live in a wireless society, and Bluetooth technology takes chief aim at eliminating cords. More than just a wireless handsfree headset or earpiece for your phone, Bluetooth promises a whole host of possibilities and applications. Strictly speaking, Bluetooth is the technology that allows for short range wireless transmissions of data between devices. While headsets are the most popular use of this technology, other accessories such as wireless speakers or wireless headphones for music listening also utilize Bluetooth. To learn more about which phones are Bluetooth capable or accessories that fit your needs, visit a Wireless Sales Expert at your nearest Costco.
3G:
3rd Generation wireless technology is a broad term to generically describe faster data speed capabilities. This doesn't always mean that your phone or services achieve these speeds. What 3G allows carriers to offer is applications and services that benefit you. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), video sharing, email with attachments, television are some examples of services that these faster data capabilities may offer. Within the category of 3G are many different technologies that specific carriers use, such as WCDMA, EV-DO (rev-A), VoIP, UMTS, and more.
