Smart Phone # 1 - Galaxy Nexus

Galaxy Nexus is the first phone which has used Android 4.0 i.e Ice cream Sandwich and has Near Field Communications enabled in it. It is a high end smart phone from Samsung has 4.65 inch HD AMOLED display and offers a wide range of cool apps. This is the arguably the best NFC enabled smart phone in the market so far and a must have for the top notch business person.

Smart Phone # 2 -  Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

Another Samsung Smart Phone, Galaxy Ace 2 runs on Android version 2.3 which is the Gingerbread version. The screen size is smaller than Galaxy Nexus, however that does not hinder the NFC process. Further, this smart phone allows the user to transmit music from the phone to the user’s car: which is great for business people who have to drive.

Smart Phone # 3 -  HTC Amaze 4G

While Samsung has been dominating the Android and NFC hybrid market, HTC Amaze 4G is a non Samsung smart phone which has the Near Field Communications option. Further it has a 4.3inches HD screen and an 8MP camera which will take care of the leisure needs of a business traveler.

Smart Phone # 4 -  Sky Vega Racer from Pantech

While Android enabled tablets are flooding the markets, the buyers are spoilt for choices. Memory plays a big role for the gaming class and the business class. The top three 32 GB Android Tablets are:

Tablet # 1 – Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime

Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime has a screen bigger 10.4 inches, a quad core powered CPU, 1080p video capturing and a top class 8MP camera. It is very light and slim. Keeping in lines with the company’s core value, Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime can also be used as both a tablet and a netbook by attaching it to a keyboard which is available separately. It supports Wi-Fi. All the features making working and gaming a pleasurable experience. The cost is also competitive. However on the flipside, currently not all games can make optimal use of a Quad Core CPU. This tablet is a little heavily biased towards the top and might slip of the table if the user is not careful.

Tablet # 2 – Asus EEE Pad Transformer TF 300

Asus EEE Pad Transformer TF 300 is another tablet by Asus with 32GB memory and compatible with Android. When compared to Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime, its performance is slightly better with faster Wi-Fi and a GPS feature. The other features are the same as Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime. TF 300 also has a quad core CPU, making working and gaming a faster experience. The greatest advantage of Asus EEE Pad Transformer TF 300 is that its price is the lowest: almost 50$ lower than all the others in this segment. On the flip side, TF 300 is slightly bulky and the screen is not very user friendly.

Tablet # 3 – Sony Tablet S

The technical specifications of Sony Tablet S are almost comparable to both the Asus tablets of this segment, yet Tablet S offers much more in terms of quantity and quality. Sony offers additional apps, a great design which is very user friendly: be it for working or for playing. It also gives Playstation certification for mobile gaming, Video and music streaming through DLNA and an IR universal remote control. All these specifications make Sony Tablet S a treat for game freaks. On the flip side, the screen brightness could have been better and Tablet S is on the higher price range.

Overall, if price is the deciding factor, then Asus EEE Pad Transformer TF 300 is the best buy; Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime is for those who go for good performances with good looks while Sony Tablet S is for gamers who do not mind spending to get what they want.

Toshiba Excite 10 has a screen size of 10.1 inches and 1280 x 800 resolutions. The IPS display is conspicuous by its absence, nonetheless, the clarity is good.

Reason # 3 – Compact and easy to carry

Toshiba Excite 13 weighs just 990gms and has a 10. 1mm thickness while Toshiba Excite 10 weighs 600gms and has a thickness of 8.9 mm. This makes them very light and extremely comfortable to carry around. Considering the fact that business travelers are mostly on the move, the compactness of a tablet becomes an important factor and these two fit the bill to the tee.

Reason # 4 – Good Battery Life

Toshiba Excite 10 has a battery life of 10 hours, and Toshiba Excite 13 has a battery life of a whopping 13 hours. Business Travelers tend to worry about charging the tablet and these long battery hours of Toshiba Excite 10 and 13 inches are perfect answers to such worries.

Most of the laptop or mobile users in Europe use HSDPA and people who living in USA use EV-DO 3G network. However, the biggest problem they are facing now is the compatibility issue on connecting to these two networks. Laptops or mobile users using HSDPA in Europe cannot connect to the EV-DO 3G network in USA.

Business travelers and other people who travel a lot to USA and Europe have to switch their data cards in order to get the 3G networks connected to their device. This problem is solved with the Introduction of the new mobile 3G broadband technology introduced by Qualcomm, which is called as Gobi™.

What is Gobi™

Gobi is a new mobile broadband 3G technology which is embedded into your notebook/laptop in the form of chipset which was introduced by Qualcomm in the late 2007. It has now picked up its popularity in providing a solution to this problem for European and USA mobile broadband users. This technology will be very useful for business and normal users. This technology has got some great benefits some of the six are explained below.

Six benefits of using Gobi™ mobile broadband 3G technology

1. Save money and time on switching data cards
Previously, people use to switch data cards when they travel to Europe or to USA. Now there is no need to switch data cards because laptops coming with built-in Gobi chipset can work with both HSDPA and EV-DO networks.

2. Access Internet anywhere

You do not have to depend on Wi-Fi Hotspots to access internet, you can freely connect to the broadband wherever you are in Europe or USA at 3G speeds.

3. From mobile to laptop

Major benefit of using the built-in Gobi chipset on both Mobile and laptops is it can connect 3G speeds with your mobile/laptop anywhere in Europe or USA. This Mobile broadband technology is very useful for business people and who roam frequently to Europe and USA.

4. Increase Business productivity – No need to rely only upon Wi-Fi Hot spots.

Mobile workers are the one who get the most out of this technology. Remote workers can connect anywhere to the internet without any issue, which will naturally increase the work productivity of the employees.  This technology has got a great advantage to the business by making employees stay connected even while they travel to another country by avoid the loss of time due to data connectivity.

5. Save money on Wi-Fi Hot spots

Gobi chipset help you to save money on Wi-Fi Hotspots, built-in mobile broadband 3G technology eliminates the need for Wi-Fi Hotspot and saves you from paying money for Wi-Fi Hotspot.

6. Faster and Secured data connectivity anywhere on the Go.

If you are a businessman traveling to Europe or USA, accessing your important emails or documents through Wi-Fi Hotspot can be dangerous because of the security. However, Gobi brings you absolute data security when accessing the internet using this technology. It has got GPS receiver and real-time data protection, which disable any intruder accessing your data.

Download speeds are lightning fast and connectivity to the internet is really quick as the built-in mobile antenna in the notebook can find signals very fast.

These are the six benefits which I feel that this technology can bring to the people of Europe and USA.

These are the top three reasons why Importers should not directly deal with Manufacturers.

1)      Security and Safety:

If you are going to trade with other countries for the first time, it is very difficult to find out a good exporter who can deliver your products, you have to go to that country and find out. This will take much time of you, and also you will incur a traveling cost. Because, of this reason ordering products from a trader will be a better choice.  Of course, you need to do all the due diligence before entrusting a trader in that country.

2)      Traders help on your requirement:

Traders get a fair share on each successful shipment, which happens between an Importer and the Exporter. Trader’s or middleman prime duty is to source a reputed exporter for the importer and making sure that the quality is met according to the standards laid by the Importer. Trader takes all the responsibility of delivering the shipment.

3)      Communication:

Communication plays an important part on why Importers should not deal with Manufacturers directly. A small miscommunication or lack of understanding in the part of Exporters can lead to bigger troubles for importers as well as exporters.

They can reject the goods which do not align with their requirements. For Example (Especially if you are from USA or Canada dealing with Non –English speaking people living in other countries can create huge problems). Trader can communicate with the local guys with their mother tongue and extract quality work from them easily.

As an Importer you need to look out for all these things. Opting for a trader can help easily to find out quality exporters who can deliver your requirements, which will help importers to earn unimaginable profits on selling products which they have imported from other countries.

If the external hard drive or other storage device is lost, then you may be in a problem. This laptop provides huge storage capacity of up to 500 GB, 640 GB and 750 GB you do not need to add up any external drive you can store large documents, emails, videos, audios and necessary things for business presentation documents.
