Fairwell Faithful Brick

This entry was originally published at Darkest Before Dawn



Today I have finally taken the plunge and replaced my faithful mobile phone. The Nokia 7650 on the right of the picture as served me well for 3 years and has provided many photos for this blog. I now have a Nokia 6680 which has a 1.3 megapixel camera on the back and a VGA camera for video calls on the front. It has lots of other geeky toys. I have dubbed it Cylon because it is sleek and silver and I am sad. I think I will splash out on one of the bluetooth qwerty keyboards so that I can blog while away from home. :-)

Yesterday I received two cold calls from companies trying to sell me a new phone and contract. I never buy anything over the phone and refuse to deal with a company that I know nothing about. Recently a work colleague had trouble with a company who tried to make out they were the network operator that she had a contract with. I had to laugh while I was standing in the Orange mobile phone shop talking to the sales staff and my mobile phone went off and I got another call from yet another company claiming to be calling on behalf of Orange.


Along with a new tariff I have changed my mobile phone number mainly so I could get a better phone and partly so I can avoid getting cold calls, my new number is not going into the directory.


More photo posts soon I hope :)

Hi Kev, your blog was next to mine. Which races are you in for? Are you doing the Great Edinburgh Run next month? I am. Did it last year - good challenging course and lots of fun.
