Parents should always supervise younger kids, but older kids may want to go around the neighborhood alone.  A smartphone can become a useful tool to help you keep kids safe on Halloween. ...

Go ahead, use the Nokia Lumia 2520 outside. Sunlight won’t stop you from seeing the screen!

July 24, 2014 by Nicole 3 Comments

I spend a lot of time outdoors, especially in the summer. My kids love to play in the yard and at the park, and my youngest ones still need constant supervision.  It's all good until I need to get my online work done. I don't know if you have ever tried to see your computer screen while the sun shines on it, but it used to be impossible for me. The colors fade out and the screen is totally unreadable from any angle. Then I got the Nokia Lumia ...

May 29, 2014 by Nicole 3 Comments

I have lost my keys so many times I can't even begin to count. I lose things so often that it doesn't even phase me when I dig through the garbage can looking for them. That's just a necessary evil part of looking for my keys. But it doesn't have to be like that anymore. I just tagged my keys with a Nokia Treasure Tag.
