Seniors – Large Print Computer Keyboards – Easy To See

Large print computer keyboards are easy to see.  Sometimes, we need a quick fix and this was one that I ran across with a friend.  I have a friend that uses one of these due to his eyesight.   He is able to compute with a large print computer keyboard and conduct business as usual.  I’ll share some of the other tricks he uses to help him with computers in future posts.

Seniors citizen technology will increase over the next decade.  Many baby boomers are technically savvy and may want to stay in tune with the internet as they age.  Also being a part of the work force in later years, a person has to somewhat keep up with technology.

There are many ailments that may interfere with seniors’  interaction with technology, unless more reliable products are invented.  Many senior citizens suffer from visual impairment or low vision, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and cataracts.  When it comes to computers, computer keyboards with big keys may be on of many  solutions.

Product Description

Additional keys (hot keys) have been added to the keyboard to allow for easier access to commonly used commands, such as searching and accessing email and the Internet and energy saving commands: wake and sleep, when you need to leave your computer on, but won’t be using it. These big, bold keys will have you using the computer, with more accurate keystrokes for a more enjoyable time.

These Large Print Computer Keyboards vary in price from $18 to $100.  There are many types of designs in colors to choose from.  The below keyboard is very moderately priced.

Affordable Senior Citizen Cell Phone – Large Dial Buttons

Senior citizen cell phones

Make Grandma or Grandpa smile with a Senior Citizen Cell Phone!

That’s right, a Senior Citizen Cell Phone made just for seniors!  Now how many senior citizens have used your cell phone and ended up squinting when it came time to dial?  To be honest, in a few years, even I may need to invest in this convenient practical  technology.

Well finally, grandma or grandpa can dial with ease on a cell phone that is made just for them.  So what if it’s not what everyone else has, it’s about practicality.  Most seniors citizens can still remember practicality, even though many of  us from younger generations have forgotten the meaning.

Why does this phone have potential and why would they appreciate it?  I’ll use my play mother who is over 75 as an example:

1.  Every time my play mom uses my Iphone, she always hangs up on the other party because she tends to hold the screen too close to her face.  Then she fusses that she can’t use my phone.

2.  Whenever she’s with me, she always asks for me to dial.  If I try to hand her my Iphone, she gives me a cold stare and asks,  ”Do you think I can see those numbers?”  Then she’s mad again.  (For real).

3.  You could buy these phones wholesale and start a senior cell phone gig.  Trust me, they’ll appreciate the large numbers so they can dial with ease.  If they have arthritis, this can also be a convenience for them.

4.  Once a senior citizen gets one of these cell phones, they all will want one.  It’s all about practicality.  (There’s that word again).

Here’s a little product knowledge on the Senior Citizen Cell Phone (Worldwide Quad Band GSM:

Just what the doctor ordered – An easy to use and practical cell phone that is specially designed for senior citizens!  After reading the below product information, ask yourself it it makes sense if you were about 65 or older with bad eyesight.

Tired of those small phones with dial buttons so small that unless you have pencil fingers you can’t make a call? Not exactly user friendly for people with arthritis, rheumatism, or poor eyesight right? In contrast, this Senior Citizen Cell Phone has jumbo sized keys which make dialing phone calls nice and easy!

Now for the beautiful part:  This Senior Citizen Cell Phone comes with an SOS button on the back of the phone that you preset with an emergency number of your choice. When you need it, a quick press and you’ll be connected with your spouse, your children, your doctor, or whatever emergency contact person you designate.

As for regular phone functions, this Senior Citizen Cell Phone also delivers in style. You get an attractive and light mobile phone with a brightly lit screen. Both icons and buttons are nice and big, which makes the navigating the phone a breeze.

It can store 500 contacts and is unlocked so you can use it with any cell phone provider you choose. Basically, this Senior Citizen Cell Phone is great for first time cell phone users or people generally intimidated by technology, thus making it the perfect gift for parents or grandparents.

——–  Unquote——–

My mother had jumbo numbers for her home phone when she was alive so I can understand my play mom.   A cell phone with jumbo numbers only makes sense for the senior on the go.   If technology is technology friendly, many more of them will experiment with it.  I’m looking for a senior citizen Ipad or Tablet now.  (Hint, Hint Apple).

The investment for one Senior Cell Phone is so low that you probably wouldn’t believe me if I were to type it on this site.   If you’d like to peek at this phone, take a look  here.

Unlocked Iphones Below $300 – Unreal!


Can you believe that Iphone 3′s are going for under $300? I was so shocked to see discounts so deep on a very sought after phone.  Click on the above phone for details while they last.

Product Description:

iPhone 3G 8GB Unlocked – if you update the software one the phone it will lock to AT&T network. iPhone 3G gives users ever faster access to the Internet and email over their cellular network with quad-band GSM and tri-band HSDPA for voice and data connectivity around the world. iPhone 3G supports Wi-Fi, 3G and EDGE networks and automatically switches between them to ensure the fastest possible download speeds. The new iPhone 3G also makes it easier to multi-task with simultaneous voice and data communications, so with iPhone 3G you can browse the web, get map directions, or check your email while you are on a call.

Just to think mine cost $600 if I hadn’t received the plan for 2 years.  Now I know where to look for another phone in case something should happen to this one.

What are the advantages of buying a phone online?  First of all, your plan will not increase with the number of years you’ll have to have it and it’s a lower cost overall for the phone.  Hope this helps those of you that feel you have to go to your cell phone provider for a phone.

Latest Iphone 5 News and Rumors

There are so many rumors regarding the upcoming Iphone 5. I’ve heard that there’s a liquid metal type technology for the screen, then I’ve heard that it’s a composite and not really liquid at all. The company that will be responsible for the technology is LiquidMetal Technologies located in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA.

Iphone 5 Is Coming!


In 2010, Apple signed an exclusive agreement with LiquidMetal to use their advanced “amorphous” metal alloys. See it here.

One thing that has leaked is that the battery will be smaller and the phone will be thinner. Here are other rumors that are floating around regarding the Iphone 5.

1. Release date some time in October or November 2012.
2. Redesign of the home button combines a circle and square.
3. Liquid metal body enclosure with a larger screen.
4. May support LTE and utitilize the Qualcomm 28nm baseband modem.
5. In addition to an Iphone 5, an Iphone Nano may also be introduced as a cheaper phone compared to the regular Iphone. Nano will be smaller.
6. An Ipad Mini may be introduced as a smaller Ipad.

Needless to say, be sure to do a good search online as the news is released. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that the Iphone 5 will be released by the tentative October 2012 date. If the Iphone Nano is released, it sure will make the Iphone more affordable for some that were unable to afford the Iphones 3 & 4. It should be interesting. Stay tuned.

New Bluetooth Gadget – Bracelet

Bluetooth Has Gone Fashionable

If you’re looking for a special gift for someone or you would like to find something that no one is sporting right now, check this out. A Bluetooth Fashion Bracelet that shows the time, caller ID, and the distance a person is from their cell phone! Can you believe this? I was shocked myself.

 

How many times has a woman had to dig in her purse for her phone? How many women prefer not to have a bluetooth hanging from her ear? Let me tell you, there are many women that refuse to have a Bluetooth in their ear not knowing how it may affect their health. Trust me, I’m one of them.

Other advantages I saw on having a device like this is, if you’re at work or in a meeting, you can still monitor your calls without anyone knowing it. It even allows you to reject a call which I thought was pretty cool. This cute bracelet also lets you know how far you are from your phone in case you misplace your phone.

The brown bracelet would look great for the evening or day. Along with the black and white stylish bracelet. If you’re a reseller, this bracelet is listed as wholesale.

Hope you enjoyed this cute gadget. I couldn’t resist on writing about it. Stay tuned for more out of the box gadgets.

Office Supplies Insider Tricks To Finding The Perfect Writing Pad


In today\’s online office supplies world, there are endless product choices that makes finding the perfect item for you a challenge. Many website\’s whose focus is office supplies now have over 30,000 sku\’s making the shopper\’s job very confusing. A staple in most offices is the ubiquitous legal pad – that famed yellow pad used by attorneys in the movies. There are many new choices in the world of writing pads today, and they are cetainly not all yellow and legal size. This quick article helps take the confusion out of shopping for that ideal legal pad for your needs, and in only a few short steps you\’ll be on your way to writing like a pro.

American Pad & Paper Co., or AMPAD as they are called today, invented the legal pad around 1886 in the northeastern town of Holyoke, MA. Legal pads are often called \”yellow pads\”, and some people assume they got their name because the legal profession uses so many of them. However, the term \”legal\” when used in office supplies language actually refers to the size of the product – legal size being 14\” long pads versus letter size pads which are 11\” long. In fact, today far more letter size \”legal\” pads are sold than legal size as consumers prefer the smaller size sheet of paper that is the same size as standard copy paper.

When shopping for writing pads, or legal pads, the primary features to decide from are product size, paper weight, the color, ruling and even the back of the legal pad. Recycled office supplies are getting more and more popular, so if \”green office products\” are what you prefer there are several legal pad options available made from recycled paper. Let\’s break down each product feature to help show you how to quickly find the right pad for you.

The first selection to make is the right size for your needs and the good news is there are only three choices. The smallest choice is called junior size and these pads are 5 x 8. The next size is 8-1/2 x 11-3/4, called letter size, and these are by far the most popular size today. And last we have the old stalwart, 8-1/2 x 14, or legal sized.

Color used to be an easy choice too with three options – canary (yellow pads), white, or green tint. However, more is better these days when it comes to selection, and online office supplies stores carry a bunch more choices in legal pad colors. Ivory, blue, orchid, rose and buff are only some of the color choices out there today. It\’s very similar with file folders, hanging folders and Post-It Notes. Color is important to people, and so the alternatives are endless. Even classification folders for attorneys are now in fashion colors.

After size and color, is paper weight. Standard legal pads are made with 15 to 16 lb. paper and that\’s what 90% of the legal pads on the market are today. In fact, many of the price fighter brands like Universal or Office Advantage will have 15 lb. paper to offer even lower prices. For those who like their paper a premium quality, there is the 20 lb. paper option, and name brands like Ampad and Tops have options with this thicker paper which doesn\’t bleed through.

Now I want to get to the real reason these pads are called \”legal pads\”, and that\’s the ruling. You knew there was a reason writing pads were called \”legal pads\” regardless of size, and it\’s because the ruling style used on these writing pads is \”legal ruled\”. What is legal ruled? Look at your pad and you will see the horizontal lines going across the page that help you write straight. Now, look to the left side of the pad. See those two or three lines going down the page vertically? That is a ruling style that is called legal ruled, and therefore you get the name legal pads, (originally legal ruled pads).

Ok, one more feature to define and we\’re all done. You need to select the backing material, or thickness of the back, of your legal pad. Many shoppers don\’t know they have a choice in a pads backing because all store brands are very thin 28 pt. backs. This is because office superstores kept demanding lower prices, and so manufactures we forced to lower their quality, (this is true in file folders, envelopes and more). But there are still brands today that offer thicker backs. Tops \”The Legal Pad\” and Ampad Evidence both use 40 pt. chipboard backs which are the old standard. In fact there are pads today like Gold Fibre which uses a 60 pt. back, and Dual Pads which use an 80 pt. back that give you a writing pad with a very rigid writing surface. Be careful though, the thicker the back, the higher the price.

So what does this office products expert like the best? Most the time I like to save money so I just use the everyday low priced brand of office products. However, when I\’m writing a letter, or writing longhand copy on paper instead of typing on a computer keyboard, I really like the quality and feel of the old Gold Fibre pads from Ampad. They have watermarked smooth finish paper, 60 pt. chipboard backs, and a leatherlike header tape for extra durability. More important than the pad I buy is where I buy all my office supplies. This office supply guru never buys from the \”mega big box\” retail chains. I like to support smaller independent online companies that offer friendly personal service and better prices. There are also new companies today with a conscious capitalism business model that helps others and contributes to the community. I look for a company to do good work and support great charities, and make a point to buy all my office supplies online from them.

Tristan Hill knows Office Products, and he loves Zuma Office Supply for low prices and the support they give great charities! Read how to find the best legal pads for your needs from a company that practices Conscious Capitalism and gives back.
