My grandmother does not need a phone that can take pictures or anything fancy, she wants a very cheap phone. she only needs to amke and recieve calls so i found a perfect phone that fits her requirements.

the Alcatel OTE227 red is only £9.95 when bought with £10 airtime balence it has a colour screen and a vibrating alert so if she cant hear the ringtone she can feel the vibration. it costs a measly 15p a minute to phone people and only 10p for each text.

impact of games players
Computer games are very popular because they offer hundreds of hours of fun, you can play as people and become them. it makes the player feel like they are actually in the game because they control what ever the character does. you can become anything you want from being a dragon slayer to being a vet, there is a huge ammount of freedom and new games a re coming out each week to satisfy every players needs. Games allow people to leave their lives and live a fantasy life.
Some people blame computer games for the increase in violence, me personally play a lot of violent games and i am not a violent person, computer games have not influenced my personallity and have not changed me in anyway. i play computer games when i am bored and want to play with my mates on a game.
Computer games have not made me isolated, if anything they have made me more outgoing and have helped me make more friends, i can talk to people about games and i play with people on xbox live and talk to them over it. i socialise with everyone i play with and make new friends from all over the world. it has increased my social life a lot.

pirated entertainment
Apple sells music downloads on their site; they are a legal download site where you have to pay for music downloads. There are many advantages to downloading music from a legal source, you will always get a good copy of the song you want unlike if you were to download a song from an illegal source it might be bad quality or might even be a different song. Also you can get fined or even jailed for having music on your computer that you haven’t paid for. If you download something illegally it is the same as stealing something as the maker of the thing you downloaded does not get paid for it.
Some people choose to buy pirate DVDs from market stalls for cheap prices, the DVDs that are sold on market stalls are usually very bad quality; It is also illegal to buy pirate DVDs from anyone and you could end up with a fine if you are caught buying them.
People can download films off the internet that are not even out in the cinemas yet they are normally filmed from the back of cinemas and sometimes even have people standing up in the middle of the film. They are bad copies and have a very bad picture it is not worth watching these films because you would lose out on all of the quality the film has.

Reliable information
There a lot of hoax websites on the internet, soem are very easy to recognise as they are not proffesional at all and look like a 12 year old has designed it. for example on this site :" http://www.sudftw.com/jackcon.htm " it talks about an animal called a Jackalope, the picture is clearly a picture of a Rabbit with antlers. it has many pictures from famous events where the Jackalope has clearly been just copied and pasted in. The information on these hoax sites are usually outragous and have clearly been made up. only a 5 year old would believe that there are killer bunnies that have antlers.
A hoax website is very easy to notice just from looking at how proffesional it is. if it doesn't look proffesional then look for a more reliable website.

Evaluation of my communication
Instant messenger: I use instant messenger a lot to keep in touch with my friends, it is easy to use and you only need to click on a window and type to get a reply. this is the main way i keep in touch with friends because all of them have instant messenger and it is free to use.
E-mail: I do not keep in touch with people using e-mail, i havn't sent an e-mail to my friends before because none of them read them, i dont read my e-mails because all the e-mails i get are junk mail which i just delete.
SMS: i send a lot of texts to people but i dont use this as much as Instant messenger. I only text people when i am out or if they are not online, it costs too much to phone people so i just text or ask my friends to phone me if they have a lot of free minutes.

When do you use mobile phones?
I use my mobile phone to keep in touch with people and sort out what is happening over the week. My mobile phone also has games on it which i can play when i am bored, it also has a 3.2 megapixel camera on it so i can take pictures of things and keep good memories on my phone. I use my phone everyday and always have it on me, my friends can keep i touch with me at all times if there is anything happening my friends phone me to tell me and ask if i am going out. My mum can also check up on me if she wants to and phone me when she needs help with anything. the main disadvantage in using a mobile phone is that it costs a lot, to phone people it costs me 20p a minute and each text costs me 3p, this isn't too bad because i do not phone people regularly i only text people really. i bought my mobile phone to keep in touch with people and thats what it does so it does fill its intended purpose.
