Should I get the iPhone 5 or the Samsung galaxy note 2?

Q. I really like the Samsung note 2 but I have the iPad 2 and I'm wondering if I should just get the iPhone 5 for that sole purpose.... I don't know too much about the difference in apps/iTunes between apple and android. I also don't know too much about either phone but the specs look like the note 2 is better? I just want to know which would be better for me... I don't watch movies on my phone but I do browse a lot on the Internet and use it as a GPS... I also use the networking apps ie Facebook, twitter ect.

A. I would highly recommend iPhone 5 bro due to the following reasons:
1) Build Quality: Build quality of Note II is awesome but iPhone is a true kick** when it comes to its aluminum enclosure wrapped with gorgeous glass panels on top & bottom. Also, its super-sleek and super-light. But yes, if you really want the true iPhone 5 beauty, go with WHITE!!!

2) Display: I am truly amazed by the display at Note II. Sure, for movies and games, Note II display is the way 2 go. But, in general, iPhone 5 has a higher pixel density than Note II and putting them alongside, you can always see iPhone 5 screen more warmer and colorful.

3) Internet: iPhone 5 is an Internet powerhouse. Safari loads webpages blazing fast and when I pushed it to use LTE, I couldn't believe how truly fast it was to download Apps and watch HD content online.

4) Siri: iOS 6 has really made Siri one smart lass. She really answers very precisely now and also searches places quickly and efficiently. She is grades higher in IQ than Note's S-Voice.

I'm going to buy tablet or ipad with wifi, which internet is cheapest in LA?
Q. We don't want to intall any device at my mom's place for the internet, since she doesn't know any thing about internet, if any problem, she doesn't know how to handle or reset. I am thinking if any service she can use at her place without any cable, she can use skype with me. She doesn't use it too much, maybe half hour per day only. Which service is cheapest for ipad or tablet wifi? Thank u so much.

A. What I use is a wireless mobile hotspot app on my smartphone.

I just turn it on on the phone and can connect up to 8 wireless devices.

You have to pay for a mobile data plan from your cellular provider.

Be forewarned that most have low monthly data limits and buying more is expensive, so you wouldn't want to use it to stream a lot of Netflix movies or try and replace your home DSL or cable Internet service.

I have a 6 GB shared family data plan and find that more than adequate, you'll have to monitor your mobile usage for a few months and upgrade or downgrade your data plan to match your usage.

If you don't have a smartphone with wireless mobile hotspot capabilities you can get a separate portable mobile hotspot device such as the MiFi from your cellular provider. This will cost a little more because the device needs it's own account and number.

Cellular mobile broadband is not intended to replace broadband DSL and Cable Internet services which usually have fair usage limits of 150 GB per month or more. Mobile broadband is designed for travelers and business people to get on the Internet when they're away from home, it was not intended for heavy download usage unless you have a big budget.

Mobile Broadband plans are great for business or frequent travelers, but I wouldn't recommend it for home use. It is usually slower and more expensive than DSL or cable and comes with restrictive monthly bandwidth limits. For home use I'd stick with DSL or cable Internet.

I personally use both. I use mobile broadband from Verizon using a wireless mobile hotspot app on my smartphone when I'm away from my high speed Cox cable Internet at home. If you run a business or need Internet access anywhere, this is a good option.The mobile Internet is convenient, but sucks compared to a high speed cable or DSL Internet service.

Your best bet for a fixed location is to get a low cost DSL or cable Internet plan.

DSL is usually the cheapest and also the slowest but still adequate for many users. Many DSL plans come with a gateway that is a combination DSL modem and wireless router in one enclosure.

Many cable Internet systems use a separate cable modem and wireless router.

A wireless router enables you to provide wireless (WiFi) Internet access to all of your WiFi enabled devices such as laptops, game consoles, cell phones and tablets, Streaming devices such as Roku boxes and Internet enabled TV and sound devices, etc.

In most home network applications the router connects your local group of computers and devices known as the LAN with the Internet, commonly called the WAN or Wide Area Network.

A lot will depend on what Internet providers are available in your specific area and what levels of service they offer in that location.

To compare your local competitors, go to a ISP comparison site that lets you input your address, http://isp1.us/find/ and compare the pricing and terms of the offers that are available in your area.

The physical address is needed because some services, particularly DSL, are very distance sensitive. For example you might be able to get a specific level of service while your next door neighbor can't.

You'll want to pick the fastest plan that fits your budget. In some areas this can be 300 Mbps+. But these high end broadband plans are expensive. You may find that something in the 3 to 30 Mbps range might satisfy your needs at a much lower cost.

Good Luck...

Does the iPad keyboard dock come with a keyboard as well?
Q. I canât tell, it sounds like it does. The picture sows a keyboard and the description sounds like it but Iâm not entirely sure.

A. The official iPad Keyboard Dock is top one on the top of the iPad accessories list and it's what you need to invest in should you wish to use Apple's new tablet computer as a regular desktop-style screen. It combines a dock for charging your iPad with a full-size keyboard, featuring a number of special keys that activate iPad features.

It looks superb, featuring an anodized aluminum enclosure with low-profile keys. Special iPad keys provide one-touch access to the Home screen, Spotlight search, display brightness, picture frame mode, the onscreen keyboard, and screen lock.
