Cellphone Data Security

The most straightforward way of doing so is by manually going through the phones security settings, and having the phone dump its memory. Almost every phone manufacturer has a “reset phone to factory settings” option that allows us to clear the phone of its extra data. To be sure, refer to the manufacturer’s website to ensure we have their most recent instructions available. After clearing the phone, go through all of its memory by hand just to make sure it has properly and fully erased all of its data.

Although you can clear the phone yourself, rest assured that SellyourCell.com will conduct a thorough “cleansing” process to ensure that the phone you sell to us is completely cleared of your personal or business information.

Apple iPhone Price "Subsidy" Offered

The much anticipated release of the Apple iPhone has occurred with all the fan fare expected from this new and exciting device. Within days of it’s release the response has been over whelming and AT&T and Apple are having a hard time keeping the device in the hands of a demanding public.

You can activate the iPhone using iTunes, a computer, a credit card, access to the internet and an email address. AT&T is requiring a two year service agreement (as an existing AT&T customer you can renew with a two year agreement). The data plans include Visual Voicemail and unlimited data.

Although it may be a little challenging to obtain an iPhone right now (a recent visit to a local Apple retailer proved less than fruitful) there is no doubt that the supply will eventually catch up with the demand. And while you wait your turn, you might want to spend a few minutes visiting www.SellyourCell.com site as a way to partially finance your purchase. SellyourCell.com offers more than competitive pricing on Cell phones and iPods. If you have one or both, you can go a long way toward defraying the cost of the Apple iPhone ($499-599, depending on storage)

Popular Phones for Recycling

While most phones are eligible for recycling, there are several models that are more often recycled. For example, among the PDAs the Palm Treo 550 is extremely popular. Other popular PDAs are the Palm 600, Palm 700 and Palm 680 , the Motorola Q and the Blackberry 7100.

Other popular models include the Motorola Razr, LG 8100, 8500 and 8600. Motorola i530 and i730, and the Samsung SPH-A660.

If you are considering recycling your cell phone for cash, remember that the earlier yiou sell it the more you are likely to receive. Also, “make sure that wherever you sell your phone takes care to remove all the data and personal information you may have stored on it," says Renee Jackson, President SellyourCell.com.
