Seldom Used Cell Phone Features
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Larry_S._Floyd]Larry S. Floyd While cell phones have become as common as car keys in some families, there are individuals who do not take full advantage of these modern technological wonders. Today's cell phones are loaded with high-tech features to make communication, information storage, and entertainment more convenient than ever before. But do you know all that your cell phone can do? Here are some of the seldom-used features found on a number of 21st century cell phones: The Ability to Take Messages in Unusual Ways While you may be accustomed to simply voicing your name and number into the phone receiver, you should be aware of the fact that cell phones can record your message in other ways. For instance, you can leave your callback number or page the party you're trying to reach. The idea behind these features is to provide instantaneous communication-even when the cell phone user appears to be out of reach. Still, from a practical standpoint, it can be time-consuming to leave a call-back number or to page someone. Also, since many cell phones record missed calls, the person you're trying to reach will probably realize that you've called based upon his or her call log.

Still, it's helpful to know about this feature-especially if you run into some cell phone users who tend to be on the quiet side. Hands-Free Capability Despite the warnings issued by safety officials about the dangers of driving and dialing, a number of cell phone customers still refuse to utilize the hands-free capability offered by some cell phones. This tendency can actually have tragic consequences, since improper use of cell phones has been linked to automobile crashes. Therefore, it's a good idea to see if your cell phone is compatible with a headset. By using a headset, you'll be able to keep your hands on the steering wheel-and your eyes on the road. Keep in mind that cell phones themselves are not dangerous-but cell phone users can create a hazard when they misuse their phones. Vibrator Alert While a vibrator alert can be considered a basic feature, judging from the number of cell phones that ring during movies, theatrical performances, and worship services, it appears that the vibrating alert is rarely used.
