my Sagem My-X7 dieded on Wednesday.. no warning or anything.. it was working at work.. and when I got home and got my phone out.. it was having a bit of a spaz attack.. backlight was flashing.. screen was flashing.. the signal indicator was going from telling me I had a strong signal to having a barred signal.. and the date and time were dancing as well..
..initially, DP and I thought that there may have been condensation on the battery or in the phone itself.. so we pulled it apart and let it ‘dry out’ overnight.. but to no avail.. the second I tried to switch it on again.. it started its lil hissy fit all over again.. and the date was stuck on Wednesday’s date.. so naturally we decided the phone had crashed.. and it took a lot of numbers, pictures and tunes with it as well.. that’ll learn me for being slack and not investing in a mini USB data suite kit
now, I dun use my phone all that much.. but being almost 72 hours without my trusty lil security blanket.. it put a dent in my day-to-day ongoings.. even tho I didn’t need to use it.. I still missed it and needed it more than ever.. so it was time to hunt down another phone..
DP and I aren’t exactly made of money.. and the fact that we needed a phone that we can take to Aus with us was an absolute must, meant we couldn’t just go out and buy the cheapest phone we could find.. and naturally.. as I was getting myself a new phone.. it was only fair I got DP an equal phone to go with mine.. seeing as his phone was getting pretty ancient anyways..
..we looked through many sites and the best deal we found was @ Phones 4 U.. a Motorola SLVR L6 and Motorola L6 – Black.. �39.95 each, both pay as you go with Orange.. the phone consists of features such as Triband, Bluetooth, WAP, Camera etc.. (DP really wanted the Bluetooth technology)..
..slick innit?.. *smiles*
DP has had a bit of a play with the phone.. unfortunately, due to security reasons.. Phones 4 U will not allow more than one handset to each order.. so his didn’t turn up this morning, like mine did.. but it gave him the chance to have a lil poke around and see how the features worked.. we didn’t hafta activate it.. cos it had already been done.. altho it didn’t come with any credit.. just a top-up card (how sweet of them..lol
)
..so now all I gotta do is let everyone know my new number.. and wait fo DP’s phone to turn up so he can, too, have a brand new toy..
.. kinda strange that my Sagem decided to crash only weeks outside of its warranty.. *ponders*
