Why Should You Chose Toshiba For Your Nest Phone System?
Dial Communications only handles a single manufacturer of phone systems, Toshiba. Many
dealers like to handle virtually any phone system out there, Mitel, Panasonic, NEC, Avaya,
Meridian; but this only ensures that their technicians are stretched too thin. When you have
to learn so many different systems, you cannot be truly expert at any of them. Nor can you
stock all the parts you need on a regular basis.
So we decided to go with only one manufacturer. After a great deal of research into the
different phone systems available - Toshiba was chosen for a number of different reasons.
They are a leader in the field, meaning that their phone systems will be competitive both
price-wise and feature-wise with anything else available. Toshiba always try to ensure
upwards compatibility - meaning that you can continue in most cases to update only the
necessary components, and not your entire system to gain new features. Toshiba phone
systems are built in a modular way - any components that go bad can be quickly swapped
out.
For example, a recent electrical storm took out the power supply of one of our customers, a
local bank; and it took the technician just 15 minutes to swap out the bad power supply, and
replace it with a new one. This means that downtime is minimal, all of the customer's unique
phone programming is still in place, and the cost was low. Needless to say, this customer
took the advice of the technician, and their phone system is now plugged into a UPS, which
would have prevented this problem in the first place.
Another customer of ours is expanding their business, and needs to have IP telephone
capability - they will have a sales staff that is working in different areas apart from the main
company location. So we have upgraded their phone system - and the phones remain the
same - the programming was all saved and moved to the new system, and their Voice Mail
programming was completely transferred to their new system. Total 'downtime' - about 10
minutes. This would have been difficult, if not impossible, on many other phone systems,
since many phone system vendors require a different type of phone for each of their phone
systems. Upgrading the phone system processor would have meant changing out all the
phones.
In addition to Toshiba's great modularity, it's reliability has been quite noticeable. The bank,
for example, that needed to replace their power supply after an electrical storm, hasn't
called us for 15 years. That's how long they've had their phone system. (I know, I'm the
technician who installed it!) When you understand that phone systems are nothing more
than highly specialized digital computers, it's actually amazing to consider; after all, can you
point to a computer at home or at your business - that's been there for 15 years?
Toshiba's reliability reflects well on our company, our customers who do decide that they
want to upgrade invariably decide to upgrade to a newer Toshiba model, rather than any
other phone system. That makes us look good, and it keeps us in business. If you don't
2. have a Toshiba phone system, ask your business associates who do - what their opinion is,
then give us a call to see how a Toshiba phone system can improve your business.

Why Should You Switch Over To A Digital Camera?
We have entered the age of digital cameras. The advantages of the traditional film camera
over the digital camera have disappeared, and the former are increasingly becoming a part
of our normal lives.
A digital camera produces digital pictures - these are so easy to load on a computer and
they can be emailed across the world to your friends or relatives in a matter of minutes. It is
easy to check digital pictures and delete them if you wish. If you find that a picture you have
taken is useless, you can delete it easily instead of wasting film, which you cannot reuse. A
film can go bad over time; so keeping a digital camera handy for use whenever necessary is
a fine option.
One can characterize digital cameras by the image size. Digital pictures are made up of
color dots called pixels. The pixels are expressed by height and width, for example 320 x
480. These numbers are then multiplied, providing the total amount of pixels. Large number
of pixels provides more detailed images, but this resource is available mostly on the more
expensive cameras. Two megapixels, which means 2 million pixels, is at the low end, and
may result in defects when the picture is enlarged. On the other hand, seven megapixels
represent a robust picture and can handle enlargement well.
One other point to consider is zooming. The Optical zoom feature adjusts the light which
enters the camera, and this makes the scene to appear closer. The digital zoom feature
adjusts the picture after being digitized, to produce a closer appearance. Both can produce
the desired result, but optical zoom is preferable.
Digital cameras also come with internal storage, but this is usually too small. So you have to
look at the kind of add on storage that the camera allows. The additional storage usually
comes in the shape of a thumbnail sized chip, and you can carry these around conveniently
3. if needed.
The battery is another area you have to consider. Some digital cameras use standard sized
batteries, while others use less common, proprietary sizes. Some batteries hold a charge
better; some battery systems are rechargeable, while some cameras just hog power.
Then there is the preview screen - which is an LCD (liquid crystal display) screen, which
shows you what the camera would see at any given point if you wish to take a picture. In
this system, the screen is active whenever you are preparing to take a picture, but this will
also consume the battery while you are doing it.
But you also have digital cameras that come with an optical viewfinder that does not
consume power. This is helpful when you are waiting for the right moment to shoot, or when
you require the preview screen to compose a picture at a difficult angle. You can also
preview the saved picture on the screen and delete the ones you don`t want to keep, and
thus clear storage space.
With the ever changing and advancements in the technology these cameras also keep
getting better and better. The basic features are common for all types of digital cameras,
only the add on features keep varying with the price and the manufacturers choices. Usually
they allow you to take pictures automatically, i.e. you can take your own picture, adjust the
picture that you have taken may also adjust the settings according to the color choice,
brightness, etc. You may also create your own video album!!
Thus it is apparent that the digital camera rules over the traditional cameras. There can`t be
any competition between the two because without doubt digital cameras dominate the
scene. They have effectively changed the way the world takes pictures and possessing a
digital camera is a dream for many budding photographers.
