Jewish World Review Dec. 21, 2007 / 12 Teves 5768 A ‘gift’ to avoid By Mark Kellner http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | The AT&T Tilt, a $399 cell phone, is up against substantial competiton. On almost every level this device, which is powered by Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Mobile 6, falls seriously short when compared even with other devices offered by AT&T. The Tilt is designed to do two things: serve as a mobile phone and offer mobile communications including e-mail and Internet browsing. While the phone has a few nice features, the rough edges are sharp and at best only irritating. At worst, those rough edges might shred your composure. Let's take dialing the phone for example. It is apparently best accomplished with a stylus, which slides out of the bottom of the unit. Fair enough, except if you're driving a vehicle and need to make a call. I know: the mobile industry and other safety types suggest, insist even, that the only way to use a cell phone in the car is to pull over to the side of the road and then dial. Back here on Earth, however, many of us sometimes need to multitask, even when stopped at an intersection. Yanking out the stylus isn't the most elegant solution. Voice dialing or a quick-access phone book is fine, until you need to dial a number that isn't already stored on the device. To its credit, once you start tapping in a number, the phone will call up recent ones that fit and you can select one of these. It's a nice feature, but doesn't really compensate for the lack of an easy-to-use numeric keypad. The on-screen, supposedly touch-sensitive one, is hit or miss without the stylus. The display also goes blank during the course of a conversation. Hitting the hang-up button on the phone doesn't bring the screen back, which would be helpful if you want to make another call. Redisplaying the screen requires the press of a side button, and perhaps crossing the fingers of the other hand. The "tilt" part of the phone's display works quite well. The screen will slide out and tilt at an angle, revealing a miniature QWERY-style keyboard. You can view a bit more of, say, an e-mail or the mobile version of Microsoft's Internet Explorer, with this screen orientation. But Internet browsing on the AT&T Tilt is hardly the seamless, wonderful experience of Apple, Inc.'s IPhone , ironically also available from AT&T for the same $399 list price. The Apple product's display screen, which can be navigated by one of the five stylus-like appendages generally found at the end of a user's arm, is more vivid, also rotates for better viewing and, yes, is based on Apple's Safari Web browser, and provides a vastly superior experience to the Microsoft product. Even the Tilt's faster data speeds, using AT&T's EDGE network, don't help browsing here. While the IPhone's 2-megapixel camera doesn't boast the 3-megapixel quality of the AT&T Tilt, the I Phone's camera seemed easier to use and its photo display software much better than the Tilt's. Overall, of course, Apple wins the handheld phone multimedia race hands down: the IPhone, after all, incorporates an I Pod music and video player. Of course, the IPhone is touted as a "consumer" device and, for corporate users, AT&T may not allow its use with a company-wide rate plan. Yet in terms of functionality and usefulness to a "road warrior," the Apple product meets many of AT&T's touted Tilt features. It offers handheld organization with ease and elan, words which cannot, in my view, be attached to the Tilt, a name which may ironically resonate with those of us who played pre-PacMan arcade games.
