Windows mobile is a language written for phones that has been widely accepted and is the Microsoft answer to the Apple iPhone. Windows Mobile is a computer based system, and is often referred to as PocketPC or Smartphone. Although, it's supposed to be a "smart" phone, this system is anything otherwise. This phone cannot automatically handle anything but contact information and downloaded sounds, but let's you mess with the program like you know what you're doing, resulting in many phones being returned. This phone has no free applications, and still require a high scale business in order to work like a phone. It's ringtones set for texts are not cancelled by opening the text, resulting in text ringtones needing to be less than 10 seconds. This phone, although it's supposed to be smart, still requires cell phone service and a data plan to use the internet, and still runs too slow on the net. The only smart thing about this phone is that it may read windows media content and use them for videos and ringtones. Other than that, it sucks. I was going to call you, but my stupid windows mobile phone wouldn't quit any of it's apps, so the battery was completely wasted by the time I remembered.

|
Universal Serial Bus.
A sort of Plug and Play... a cord attached from the computer to a device (camera, Mp3, iPod, PocketPC, etc) gives it immediate connection to the computer. Usually powers the device. My digital camera is attached to my computer by a USB. My devices are now instantly connected to my computer in a snap.

|
(n) Opposite of smartphone. A cellphone which has little or no advanced features such as a large, bright screen, or applications such as Email and Web browsing. Cingular wanted to sell me a $399 Pocket PC with an $80-a-month unlimited voice and data contract, but I told them to stick it. I bought a free-after-rebate dumbphone instead.
