phones

Phones, plural and short for telephone, is a device that allows the user to communicate via sound with another user also using a phone.  

Technological advances are enabling phones to do more than just communicate with each other, added features include embedded internet access, MP3 players, document reading/manipulation.  There are three key different types of phones:

1. POTS (plain old telephone service) phone -- the one you use in your house that's hardwired to the phone provider
   
2. Wireless Phone — telephones that are highly portable, cell phones use antenna towers to communicate with the phone or satellite phones uses satellites
   
3. VOIP Phone -- voice over IP, a phone that connects via the Internet to another user

Blogs often times review and discuss Cell Phone features, models, and value. Additionally, discussions may occur on POTS or VOIP services which many households still use.

If you are writing about any type of phone product or service, you can use the tag "phone".
