			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everybody wants their home to be filled with joy, and one of the best ways to do that is fill it with sounds. Laughter, screams of delight, calls of welcome home, a telephone ring from an old friend, all of these things are joyous noises that fill it with memories and make a house a home. But what about a little music to set the tone? Your <a href="http://www.smarter.com/se--qq-iPod%2Bspeakers.html" target="_blank">iPod speakers</a> aren&#8217;t going to be enough to reach through the stories. What do you do if you want the whole family to enjoy the faint melody of Christmas carols, or some quality Beatles or Beethoven for the children to learn some &#8220;real&#8221; music. Consider these home audio systems found on Smarter.com:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know how happy you are when you get a new mobile phone.  No scratches or chips from bouncing off pavement or dropping on floors, the numbers aren&#8217;t worn yet and the battery seems to last forever, or at least longer than expected.</p>
<p>Fast forward about 12-18 months, after charging and recharging, sometimes admittedly at half-life because you can&#8217;t run the risk of it going dead while you&#8217;re running about.  Eventually, that battery gets tired and your usage time doesn&#8217;t seem to last quite as long as it used to.</p>
<p>Do you need a whole new phone?  Well, maybe, but not necessarily. If you&#8217;re on a budget, replacing your cell phone&#8217;s battery might be a better option than throwing down another $100-$300, depending.  Check out the replacement batteries Smarter features.<br />
