Audiovox CDM 8600
The Audiovox CDM 8600 is a flip phone for people to flip over. This hot phone promises a great connection coupled with amazing style. This phone has it all, voice dialing, internet, and GPS. As for entertainment, then it gets a little tricky, there are no games and it is not an MP3 player phone, it cannot play music for the entertainment of the phone user. For those who are looking to use the phone as a phone though, it is great.
The Audiovox CDM 8600 is a small flip-to-open style phone. The phone is only 3.27 inches by 1.65 inches by .8 inches with a weight of 3.17 ounces. There is almost nothing to the phone as far as size goes. This does hurt the battery a bit though, since there is only 2.5 hours max of talk time and 103 max hours of stand by. This is far less than the average phone.
There is a nice GPS system on the phone so that one can locate their position and find how to get to another position from there. This means that the only people who can get lost with this phone are the people who want to be lost. This phone also communicates in more than one language, English and Spanish. This means that those with a Hispanic background can use their native language to negotiate the phone. This phone also is able to identify the people who are calling and use separate ring tones per person. This makes it easy to identify whom the phone might be for and what the call might entail.
This phone can be used as a PDA. There is an address book, calculator, voice dialing and voice memos. This makes it very easy for the busy person to keep everything in order and get things done in a timely manner. There is even a speakerphone and a vibrate feature.
Pros
