1.  The Flip Phone is Back!
KYOCERA Launches Rugged, Reliable, FirstNet Ready DuraXE Epic with AT&T


Compact, affordable, ultra-rugged flip phone delivers productivity essentials for public safety, construction, hospitality, and more

Kyocera International Inc., the North American leader in rugged mobile solutions, launched the military-grade and FirstNet Ready™ DuraXE Epic on the AT&T 4G LTE network today. A compact flip phone built for reliability in harsh conditions, Kyocera’s new ultra-rugged device is certified military standard 810H to withstand drops (up to 5 feet onto concrete) and water immersion (IP68 up to 6 ft for 30 min) making it ideal for the public safety, construction and hospitality industries, as well as seniors and anyone looking for a durable, easy-to-use device. It’s also certified Non-incendive Class I Div 2 for protection in hazardous environments, and can be disinfected using alcohol (70% solution) or cleaning wipes. An affordable option, especially for enterprise, DuraXE Epic is available for $269.99 MSRP or for well qualified customers for $9.00/mo on a 30 month installment plan at 0% APR. 

DuraXE Epic is FirstNet Ready™ and supports access to the dedicated FirstNet network core, FirstNet First Priority®, which includes always-on priority and preemption for first responders and the Band 14 spectrum. Offering highly reliable communication, including AT&T Enhanced Push to Talk** (EPTT), DuraXE Epic has 100+dB dual front-facing loudspeakers with dual-mic noise cancellation for audio clarity; cellular calling with HD Voice; Wireless Priority Service with eMPS and real-time text (RTT) support. DuraXE Epic also makes an ideal replacement for Remote Speaker Mics (RSMs), using the programmable external buttons to easily communicate — PTT button for EPTT, External Speaker, and Call List keys on top of device can be programmed to channel up and down, and SOS button to call for help (requires Advanced EPTT) — all without opening the device or removing it from its holster. At 4.36 inches (when closed) and weighing only 6.8 ounces, the device features a fast 1.2GHz, 64-bit Quad-core processor in an ergonomic design with a large, tactile, glove-friendly keypad and buttons, adjustable font size and a clear display for improved readability. An easy access, customizable menu can be set to frequently-used apps; and multiple programmable keys, including SOS*, PTT*, speaker, call list, and four-way navigation key, make the device easy to personalize.

Limpert Tech "SullyCast" on ALT 105.7 and iHeartRadio 12/5/20 - Alain Cohen of NeuroTennis

Rick talks with Alain Cohen,CEO of NeuroTennis this week about their smart tennis wristbands.

This is new tech in tennis. Two key differences make this wearable technology so different from other smart tennis devices on the market.

Alain explains:


 

“One major difference is that NeuroTennis coaches you while you play,” said NeuroTennis CEO, Alain Cohen.

“Other tennis trackers just report statistics on speed, spin, and stroke counts, without much actionable information. NeuroTennis, on the other hand, provides coaching instructions that are synchronized with the rhythm of your hitting, as you play.”

 

Cohen stated that the second revolutionary aspect of the technology is that it wirelessly connects the wristbands of two players across the court, in order to pinpoint the timing of audible coaching instructions, precisely when your opponent hits the ball.

Former world No. 1 Mats Wilander was an integral part of designing NeuroTennis. “To reach the next level, I believe in modifying your game and not just measuring it,” Wilander said. “I believe that to reach your full potential, you need to train your brain just as hard as your skills and fitness.”

Features and benefits of NeuroTennis include:

Two player or solo mode - NeuroTennis is most typically used in a two-player mode, meaning that the sensors in each device communicate with each other, across the court.

NeuroTennnis App - The feature-rich app allows you to select lessons and drills from an extensive library designed by world-class coaches, including Mats Wilander. Taking it to the next level, you or your coach can easily customize content to specifically address your goals. Available for iPhone and Android.

Game Modifying Technology - While other wearable tennis products just measure physical results, like speed and spin, NeuroTennis is about ingraining better habits and accessing your tennis skills consistently so you can raise your game while you practice. Training at higher levels leads to playing at higher levels.
 
NeuroTennis is available now at NeuroTennis.com and sells as a pair for $269. For more information on how to train your brain and raise your game, visit NeuroTennis.com.
