Some minor website issues have also been fixed:

- UK mobile phone page text read “cell phones”, which is of course an Americanism and the incorrect term for UK users

- Shoes and clothing section now correctly titled and description matches the section. The previous version of this page contained a strange mish-mash of the intended information as well as information from the watches and jewellery section

- iPod and electronics text links now correctly target a new page, rather than opening in existing window

In addition to the watches and Jewellery section, the Easy Auction RSS feeds and navigation article has been updated with the new version. For some reason the article featured and uploaded to Easy Auction was the old version, with several mistakes and, ironically; a broken navigation.

- New shoes and clothing section. This section is a little more extensive than other Easy Auction product sections, owing to the likely popularity and demand of the section. The UK section, for example, features the fabulous Littlewoods clearance store which sells fabulous high street shoes and clothing at massively discounted prices (up to 80% off). The importance of the World of Good section with respect to fairtrade, ecofriendly and responsible clothes shopping is also noted. 

- The Easy Auction homepage has been updated to include an ‘easy auction promotions’ section just above the eBay auction news, in the right hand column. The current promotion is a $10 off at World of Good promotion which Easy Auction is currently running – the World of Good product page, contained in unusual products  section has also been updated to reflect these changes. 

- The World of Good page banner at the top now directs people to the $10 off offer than is mentioned. The bottom banner has been removed, and replaced with an excellent little widget which displays the current favourite products available at World of Good; it’s well worth a look! 

- Several errors have been corrected on many pages of the website and several sections have been reworded. The Easy Auction homepage, for example, should be easier to read but also more informative.

- Several main pages on the website now include a nice little Christmas tree icon at the top to make the website look slightly festive

So go on – stop neglecting yourself and treat yourself to some personal care products

Mobile phones (commonly referred to as cell phones in the United States) are long-range handheld telecommunications devices. They are used not only for voice communication, like a standard landline, but can also communicate using video messaging, text messaging (SMS- short messaging service) and media messaging (MMS- multimedia messaging service) and emails. Modern mobile phones also offer additional functionality, including FM radio, GPS (global positioning system), the ability to play MP3s and videos, as well as supporting a range of games and applications.

How many are there?

There were over 4.1 billion handsets registered globally in 2008- a number which continues to rise as the range of handsets and cheap contract deals increases as mobile networks expand. Nearly everybody these days has one or more mobile telephones, and the increasing network coverage and availability of low-budget handsets has meant that they are not just restricted to the wealthy or indeed the first world.

What are smartphones?

Smartphones reach beyond the capabilities of a standard mobile phone and offer users PC-like functionality. They often run their own operating system, such as Google Android, Symbian OS, RIM BlackBerry, Linux, Palm OS or Microsoft Windows Mobile. Because of this, they often support similar (but somewhat cut-down) versions of programs you would expect to find as software on a computer. Modern smartphones such as the HTC Touch HD have Wi-Fi, a fully functional media player, web browser, office applications and video camera. In addition to this, they offer extensive storage space with additional space available through compact flash/SD/Micro SD etc. Some smartphones (such as the Touch HD) contain internal GPS receivers and support accurate positioning on programs such as Google Maps.

Where can I buy mobile phones and smart phones?

Well that’s where Easy Auction comes in. Our brand new mobile phone (cell phone) product section is home to a plethora of mobile handsets; from mundane text and voice machines to stunning smartphones such as the HTC Touch HD 2 and the Apple iPhone 3GS (pictured below). Because the range is so large, you are bound to snap up a bargain and get the phone of your dreams (or simply something functional) for a fraction of the high-street price.

They really are beatiful devices, but so many different generations and models of iPod have been released that you’d have to be a millionaire to keep up to date! Or would you? Click here to find out! On your wonderous journey through the new section, you will come across many different electronic devices, and not just iPods. I would be surprised if you came across anything quite as iconic as the iPod (or perhaps iPhone), but I’m sure you’ll find some beautiful bargains on DVD/Blu-ray players, HDTVs and PC monitors and the like.

iPod Touch, 2nd gen.
