15 Jul 07 Shopping Path, help to buy better

Although they are still in their initial stages, this utility seems is gonna become one of the best comparison tools for helping buyers find their product on the net. We talk about ShoppingPath, a new website powered with Yahoo Shopping! that will bring to you all the needed info to compare and buy products on the net. So far they are in Beta, but you can see an example in CrispyShop and get an idea of how it is working. I like these kind of applications, it makes my life so easy when I need to buy something that I almost don’t get anything that I have not compared before using some online websites.

18 May 07 BT phones, easier now at PCM Telecom

The guys at PCM Telecom, a well known supplier of BT Phones, have made a complete revamp and redesign of their website, and via ReviewMe we are keen to have a look and check out what new features they have included on it.

Landing on the home page and starting to search for a new phone is as easy as scrolling down the screen, for that they have listed on a series of 15 items per page, the latest models of BT phones available in the market  ( you can choose to display 15, 25, or 30 so to go quicker in your product scanning ). If you budget is what matters here, well, then just sort them out by price, which is what I have done to find out a new but not to expensive phone to replace mine.

Every item has its description page, which is basic to know what you are buying, but as I am not simply convinced for the technical description, I always search on the net for product reviews. It happens that they have a page on their site just for that, although it was not clear to me if they are done by actually customers or by experts  ( some are very simple, some are more detailed).

Anyhow, their stock it is not just limited to phones and the shop has several other telecom categories you can browse: from bluetooth devices, to fax machines or VoIp products. I would say that the new design will fit pretty much the needs of every customer looking for clear info about products before we decide on purchasing anything.

 

 

30 Abr 07 HP Ipaq Voice Messenger, do it just talking

Blackberry fans use to complain about having to use their thumbs too much :-), because actually there is nothing you can do in this popular device without writing, and this is probably why HP has launched his new gadget the Ipaq Voice Messenger.

This mobile phone not only reads out loud your messages but also lets you reply to them without typing anything, as you can record a voice message that will be sent as WAV file in the attach to your recipient.

I guess this is a good new for people who likes to be connected on the move and not having to get their fingers tired while doing it :-). More over, this phone allows you to do almost everything using voice commands: navigating through options, updating your calendar and, of course, call someone from your contacts.It has also wi-fi capabilities, so you can use it over the net whenever there is a connection in a sort of skype-type mode. If you were looking for a new model of handset that you ease your digital life, this one could be a pretty handy one to have! .

22 Abr 07 Twenga, shopping search engine

#Sponsored Post #

If this blog is about product and services reviews, the website we are presenting you now is more or less about the same, on a shopping search engine format :-). We talk about Twenga, which despite being still in their beta version, looks like is gonna be one of the majors search engines about new products and shopping options for european consumers. The search engine is focused so far in 4 european countries (France, UK, Spain and Italy), and according to their creators, Twenga is defined as a next-generation shopping search engine, which, since it was launched in 2006 uses a proprietary crawl technology to agregate merchant offers so to make it powerful and easy to use.

I have been playing around a bit the site to find out its capabilities. I like that the main categories are displayed quite nicely on the top bar, so it is easy to go directly to the directory of the item you are searching for, be it computers, photo, video gaming,  or supplies,  to name the ones I am more interested in.

While looking for a laptop ( yes, I want to change mine :-)), it was quite easy to sort out the different options by brand, price, store and other parameters, so I finally got up applying several filters to get to the one I may buy soon. In this way, it works in a similar way as Yahoo Shopping!, and although I would have liked to see more filters so to digg more in the products, I am quite happy with the choices I got.

Another option to help us consumers find out best products out there, which is indeed not always easy!
