Motorola SLVR L7 Review - Entertainment, Internet and Storage


Entertainment


Storing up to 1000 contacts on its PhoneBook, the SLVR incorporates common PIM (Personal Information Management) applications such as Alarm Clock, Calculator, Datebook, and Voice Recorder features.

Additionally, an integrated email client allows connections to POP3 and SMTP accounts, although oddly, IMAP4 is noticeably missing. A poor choice for business consumers, the SLVR was never meant to be a PDA replacement.

Fortunately though, the SLVR L7 supports J2ME (Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition). Allowing users to download and install Java-based games and applications, consumers have an abundance supply to choose from due to J2ME's dominance as the most popular platform for mobile devices. Some are free for download, however most are developed by corporations and require a fee.


Internet


Motorola SLVR L7 LeftEquipped with GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) Class 10 (4+2) technology, customers can retrieve information and browse the web at up to 48 kbps. But with many phones progressing into video streaming, carriers are boasting broadband-like speeds. Unfortunately GPRS is as fast as the SLVR will get; EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution) support was not included for Cingular's 3G network.


Storage


With 5.0 MB of internal memory, there is plenty of storage for photos, ringtones, and text messages. However, to use the built-in MP3 player, more memory is needed which the SLVR provides via a TransFlash memory card slot located on the bottom right side. Currently cards up to 512 MB can be purchased separately.
