Nokia 5300 XpressMusic


The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic is a music player phone in a slide design. The 5300 has a nice compact design that is good to hold.
The 5300 XpressMusic is focused on solid design and durability. The slider phone design is not sleek but it is small, convenient and durable.
There are dedicated music keys on the outside (play, pause, forward & rewind) and a camera key, so many of the phone's functions can be accessed without opening the slide.
Nokia has blended the design and features in this phone to meet the demands of a new section of users, offering a fresh and trendy experience.
The 5300 has a high-quality stereo music player that supports all the main digital audio formats: MP3, Midi, AAC, AAC+, enhanced AAC+, and WMA. There is also a stereo FM radio.
As well as the music capabilities, the 5300 has all the other functions that we have come to expect from a phone. The built-in camera has a resolution of 1.3 megapixels, and there's a video recording option too.
Internet access is fast, using EDGE, and a basic web browser is supplied. Connectivity options include Bluetooth, USB and infrared, and a CD is supplied to let you manage files and transfer your music from PC to phone. Battery life is average, and probably compares reasonably well with an iPod when it comes to playing music.
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic is also a Java-enabled phone supporting MIDP Java 2.0 and additional Java APIs.
The MP3 player, switchable themes and robust design make it clear that the Nokia 5300 is aimed at the younger mobile phone user; someone who wants as many features they may actually use packed into one compact device.

If you ever wondered why you should lose weight, it means that you really don’t know the health consequences to which overweight and obesity lead.
First of all your extra pounds is practically an accumulation of excess body fat and it may impair your health. Doctors generally agree that the more obese a person is, the more likely he or she is to have health problems. Obesity has been linked to several serious medical conditions, including the following:
Cardiovascular disease (mainly heart disease and stroke) - already the world’s number one cause of death, killing 17 million people each year. Heart disease and stroke are the leading causes of death and disability for both men and women in the United States.
Diabetes – This has rapidly become a global epidemic. Overweight people are twice as likely to develop type 2 diabetes as people who are not overweight. You can reduce your risk of developing this type of diabetes by losing weight and by increasing your physical activity.
Musculoskeletal disorders – especially osteoarthritis.
Cancer- Several types of cancer are associated with being overweight. In women, these include cancer of the uterus, gallbladder, cervix, ovary, breast, and colon. Overweight men are at greater risk for developing cancer of the colon, rectum, and prostateThough, one of the most painful aspects of obesity may be the emotional suffering it causes. Our society places great emphasis on physical appearance, often equating attractiveness with slimness, especially in women. The messages intended or not, make overweight people feel unattractive. Many people assume that obese people are gluttonous, lazy, or both. So, do you want to lose weight?!
