Importance of a Cell Phone Car Charger

A cell phone is a luxury. A luxury most people would say they could not live without. I will admit I'm pretty attached to my Blackberry but I understand that if things got rough, it would not work and that's okay with me. While our cell phones do work they are something that can help you out in a lot of situations. If you break down on the side of the road, have an accident, or need to call for help fast a cell phone can be your best friend.

One thing you don't want to get caught without is a car charger for your cell phone. If you break down late one night and your phone is dead you will be wishing you had purchased that car charger. Not the charger from your local wireless provider store but the cheap one off the internet. The stores sell their products at ridiculous prices. If you step foot into a wireless provider store you can plan on getting ripped off.

If you have been putting off getting a car charger for your phone now is the time to make the purchase. Sellers on eBay sell phone chargers for less than $5. I got my car charger for $5 with free shipping. It was the same charger that was on sale at the local T-Mobile store for $25.00. The point is if you don't have a cell phone car charger the price isn't an excuse. Get one offline for cheap so you never have to worry about your phone going dead while on the road.

Cell Phone As Emergency Communicator?

Research in Motion's (RIM) mobile communicator, the Blackberry, has set the standards for a business device. Only recently have Blackberries turned mainstream since the introduction of the Blackberry Curve into the consumer market. Countless corporations issue Blackberries to all their employees for up to the second email and secure messaging system (PIN Messaging). Federal and local governments also use Blackberries as their primary communication devices.

PIN messaging is an encrypted messaging system that is sent over the internet from the device. **You must have a data plan enabled on your Blackberry for these features to work. Minimum data plan on most providers is $30 a month for unlimited access and up to 10 email accounts. Each Blackberry has a unique PIN number. That number allows you to securely communicate with other internet-enabled Blackberries. The PIN messaging system is called Blackberry Messenger which is preloaded onto all Blackberries. PIN messages get sent instantly and along with an instant messaging platform you can send emails through the PIN system which are also just as secure.

These PIN messages are so secure that it's the preferred device for criminals because police can't monitor the PIN messages. The government uses Blackberries for communicating during a disaster. The local and federal government have them in case the cell system is overloaded you can still get PIN messages out. This held true when my town was hit by a tornado last year. The cell systems were jammed, and nobody could get a call out but I was able to PIN message my brother and make sure he was okay.

They would be useless along with all cell phones in the event of a mass blackout or total signal loss, but in the event of a smaller scale disaster they could come in handy for you and your family to be able to communicate with each other. I own a Blackberry and have the internet package, my PIN number is 20F999DA. I started a KPN group on my Blackberry Messenger as I already have one individual added. If you have one send me an invite and let me know its from Kentucky Preppers Network.
