You might be wondering why you're seeing 4 cell phones in the picture, but it's a big problem for me. The one on the left is the one that I have used for more than 5 years in everyday life. As I wrote an entry about it before, this one is very useful at least in Japan. Now, I have to decide which one I will take to Canada. The far right which is a Motorola has a good record with its usage in Canada and Germany in the past 4 years, but it's a little heavy and old-fashioned. The second cell phone from the right is a Taiwan-made smart phone and the replacement of the Motorola. It's thinner, lighter and better than the former one in every aspect of the functions, but I don't know whether it would be able to work well in Canada. Additionally, these cell phones get e-mails, or other data automatically via the wireless telephone system. I'm afraid that it leads to a high charge from the telephone company. I'd like to set phones to get e-mails only via free WiFi, not via the telephone system. This was a problem that I couldn't solve myself, and so I took them to a cell phone shop and asked a clerk to set the phones as I wanted.
Finally, the second one from the left was set for connecting internet via WiFi, and the second one from the right was set only for voice and speech. It's perfect for reducing the cost of communication.
