A Cheap Android Phone that Should Be – the HTC Tattoo

For a smartphone with an operating system that’s open and free, it’s been surprising to see a slew of Android phones that rival the high ends handset that use their more proprietary OS platforms like Symbian.  Especially when we see them sporting features that, while decent, are quite common with many other high end phones costing less.

Predictable Features

Among those features, you get 16 GB microSD support, high speed internet with 3G HSPDA, WiFi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, stereo FM with RDS and GPS support.  That’s what many Android phones have.  And the new HTC Tattoo is no exception.

It also features a typical 3.1 mega pixel autofocus camera and a decent multimedia feature starting with a gorgeous 2.8” LCD TFT resistive touchscreen display, presumably with the usual accelerometer for automatic viewing orientation changes.  HTC phones are not known to have great multimedia features as they are really meant to target the more serious corporate and business markets.  But, just as a perfunctory nod to mobile phone trends, it makes business sense to put in all the bells and whistles we’ve come to expect from mobile phones.

The HTC Tattoo from the Taiwan-based mobile phone novice runs on a powerful Qualcomm CPU clocked at 528 MHz with a 256 MB Ram and 512 MB ROM, engine features that are just as powerful as any Android phone out there. People often wonder if the Android phone requires so much power to run effectively, and thus, bring up its price rather unnecessarily while sporting the familiar touch-screen form.

Outstanding Value

But what makes the HTC Tattoo stand out is its affordability in the rumored €350 price point, that is, if you consider that affordable.  This newest handset officially released by HTC is said to be the cheapest Android phone expected to hit the market during the last quarter of the year starting this October.  If you are familiar with the high end HTC Touch 3G, then you have an idea how the Tattoo looks like, but using the Android OS instead of Windows Mobile.

This is HTC’s fourth Android handset and this time, it looks like the target market for affordable handsets should provide a wider market base for its line of Android phones.  Does the Android have a mass appeal?  That remains to be seen as they typically get snapped up by high end markets with their upscale price.  Whether they can upgrade (or downgrade) from their Symbian, Windows and Linux handsets remains to be seen.  The Android OS is actually a great mobile platform with so much promise and there are no royalties in its use by phone makers.

How do I confront my friend on money he owes me?

I have a friend who does my tattoos for me and a few months ago I gave him a 600 dollar guitar as well as a lcd computer monitor, speakers for a computer, and a bunch of other stuff. I gave him at least 800 bucks worth of stuff and so far he has only given me a tattoo he said was worth 300. He agreed to pay me the rest a while ago and since then I haven’t seen a penny let alone heard from him much. His girl friends pregnant so he’s been pretty busy but I need that money and I have no idea how to go about this. Last person I did this to broke my nose and ran from me when I almost beat him down. I don’t really want things to get physical or deal with it in court, I’d much rather just get it out of the way easily.

I can tell you now. He has absolutely no intentions of paying you any money back. Whatever you do or say, he will not pay you back. Except he may give you a broken nose, broken jaw and a few dislodged teeth.

Dump him. He is no friend. A user, most definately. A thief – very much so.

You want revenge? F*ck up his relationship, get some woman to call his girlfriend and tell her he has been cheating on her or something along those lines. BUT never let him know it was you otherwise you may find yourself trying to keep your head above water with concrete shoes on.
