Article Offers Technology Checklist for New Year
Michael Antoniak offers a technology checklist for 2009 in January’s issue of REALTOR® Magazine.
Among the must-haves for many real estate agents: mobile phones, computers, digital cameras and navigation solutions, he says.
For phones, Antoniak says a smartphone is the best choice for many agents. He notes the latest iPhone and Blackberry Bold as well as the Motorola Motozine ZN5, which was unveiled as a “mobile imaging device good enough to replace a digital still camera.”
On computers, he says a notable trend is the additional selection of ultra-compact mobile computers. Some examples, Antoniak says, are the Lenovo IdeaPad S-10, Dell Inspiron Mini-9 and the Asus Eee PC 900.
The selection for cameras with wide-angle capabilities is growing, he says, and the article identifies Nikon’s Coolpix P80 because it has a zoom for highlighting features and a wide-angle setting that allows an entire room to be photographed.
Lastly, on navigation systems, he identifies hardware systems, like Sony’s Nav-U line, but also says that more GPS functions likely will be built into other hardware or provided as a service.
