We all seem to forget these days that mobile phones a full of wonderful things and we get accommodated to them very quick but we forget about those who do like tech and may have a disability and cant quite enjoy the full effect of the devices around us today.

Last year Motorola launched the MotoG which turned out the be one of the best value for your money android devices there is and it sold like hotcakes,despite the option for irish punters to buy it was a different case until it became available through some operators,like ourselves we did find a simple way to obtain it at launch.
The only difference here is that is now offers 4g plus sd card expansion which will be most welcome,it also comes with android 4.2.2 which is kit kat …
It is expected to be slightly more expensive that the previous model and we reckon around €179 which is not bad,this is a great phone for its money.
Only yesterday we brought you the news of the treasure tag mini been quietly announced,today nokia confirm the original treasure tag is now available to buy after some delays to the product.
When paired with your Lumia using either Bluetooth (4.0) or NFC, the Nokia Treasure Tag will stay in constant communication with your smartphone, telling it that it’s close by.
If you get up and leave without taking the tagged item with you, both the Nokia Treasure Tag and your Lumia will emit a tone to alert you of the fact.
Most of the time, the audio alert is all you’ll need to be reunited with your belongings. However, if you can’t hear the tone, the Nokia Treasure Tag app on your phone will show you where the connection was lost on a map.
You can pair up to four Nokia Treasure Tags to your Lumia at any one time, leaving no prized possession untagged.
Nokia Treasure Tag comes in four different colours: cyan, yellow, white and black. With a recommended retail price of €24,90 / $29.90, the Nokia Treasure Tag is available now globally, with the exception of China where it will be available later this month.
We hope to see this arrive in Ireland soon and its priced well its a handy accessory to have…

The Nokia Treasure Tag Mini is an affordable way to keep track of the things you care about. Spend less money to get the peace of mind that comes with knowing where your important posessions are – buying a Nokia Treasure Tag Mini is less expensive than you think.
Considering the treasure tag WS-2 is expected to sell at around 30 euros we would expect this new slimmer model to be cheaper.
