Taking cues from the success their earlier business mobile phones with simplistic outlook and a decent feature list, the Finnish giants have came up with yet another clean cut mobile phones aimed primarily as a business solution – the Nokia 6233.
The Nokia 6233 looks exquisite but it is not very subjective. The candy bad design is a mixture of gloss and Matt finish. The stainless steel rim adds to the overall design apart from giving an impression of robustness. The simpleness of the look and feel of the Nokia 6233 spills over to its usability. A five way D pad, well laid out keypad and a large 256K screen 30 x 40 mm size and offers a 320 x 240 pixels resolution covers the front of the Nokia 6233. The bottom of the phone is shared by a pop-port and a charging port. Volume control buttons and a camera hot key towards the end in the right and Push To Talk activation button toward the left – the Nokia 6233 is probably the most easy to use 3G phone around.
The Nokia 6233 is a feature-packed phone like its predecessor. The handset is endowed with 3G technology so is at home with high rate data transfer and making and receiving video calls. The handset supports triband GSM mobile network and changes band automatically. Embedded GPRS and EDGE technology can give you mobile Internet connectivity in absence of 3G networks. The handset even supports HSCSD. The handset synchronizes easily with any compatible external device via Bluetooth, Infrared or USB so sharing files and information is easy and quick.
The Nokia 6233. integrated camera is 2.0 megapixel module with video recording capabilities. Its use as a music player can not be ruled out as it includes a media player, stereo speakers, external memory card support and a FM stereo radio.

Unfortunately, conflict and crisis is something that happens around the world due to many factors, usually a difference in opinion, race or religion. More often than not, innocent parties are required to enter the scene as mediators on a common ground. This mediation can sometimes take place in remote places, or at least remote as far as technology is concerned – for example there may be no mobile phone network so communication can become difficult.
This is where technology such as satellite phones can help.
Unlike traditional mobile phones, Satellite phones use a network of satellites that orbit the earth and relay signals back to handsets on the ground. This is ideal for remote locations such as deserts that have a direct line of sight back to the satellites without any interference, however in some locations, such as dense jungles signal can become weak or even lost.
The beauty of the Satellite phone however is that it doesn’t rely on local cell towers, so you can be out at sea or in a vast open space and communication can be made with anyone else on the planet, either with another satellite phone handset or a traditional landline or mobile (within a signal area).
Satellite phone kits usually come in a portable carry case, making them relatively easy to carry from location to location, although they do tend to be generally larger than as standard mobile phone. Although the number of handsets used has increased since the 1990′s they are still relatively expensive in comparison to other communication methods, however it is now possible to rent the handsets making it a more viable and cost effective option.
You will probably see Satellite phone handsets used on military documentaries on television both on land and at sea. It is absolutely imperative that communication is established with troops or workers in remote locations as it can help evade potential crisis and in many situations save lives. Don’t forget that a crisis situation isn’t just military; it can be aid workers in a foreign country who lose their way and require assistance.
Technology has come a long way in the last decade and is now a very important part of any crisis management solution. Through the use of satellite tracking and communications it can now help to save many lives and prevent unnecessary loss.
