Going technie on Cell

Oct 05, 2010 03:18

Scooting along at 60km/h on a rainy day WITH your cell phone in your pocket = bad (very bad)

I pulled out my cell phone on destination only to find it water logged.   Bleh.

This is the second time.  I haven't learned.

After trying techniques like airing it on paper towel, dismembering it, sticking it in jar of rice and just staring at it while punching the POWER key did nothing.  Sigh....

I hit the Fido store to do the inevitable today - buy a new cell.  Usually I make them last forever, but not this turn.

I got excited a bit about the million and 1 choices out there - and even contemplated the iphone at one point.  But really, I just wanted a phone, with one exception.   A full keyboard - if you can call it that, small and shrinked that it is.

I bought an LG GW300FD without much hesistation - otherwise known as the LG Gossip.   Because:

-it was cheap
-I could cover it with my earned points.
-I paid $13.00 for it  - YA!
-it had a full "keyboard"

I'm tired of texting on my 9 digit cellphone.   I don't care much for accessing email but I wanna type faster so I'm giving this blackberry'isque imitation a chance.

And so far...it's actually kinda cool.

More to come.
