A new phone
Quite unexpectedly, I now have a new mobile phone - my dad said I could have my brother's, after he kept using more minutes or texts than he was allowed! It's a Nokia 6300 - a nice upgrade from my 3220, which was starting to look a bit worse for wear. I realised I've had that one for 3 years now, as I got in in a promotion for Star Wars Episode III back in 2005.
But this new one is nice and shiny, has a big, clear display and a fairly good camera function, which means I'll probably hold off buying a digital camera for the moment.
I don't usually care too much about mobile phones, but this one is pretty cool, and it's a Nokia again, which is good. Plus, it's on a contract which my dad is paying for, so I won't have to buy any credit myself - all in all, a good deal! I'm just in that annoying transition phase between phones at the moment.
I sent off my Pokémon Gold cart to get a new battery today. After I'd phoned them up, I had to wait for Nintendo (or CoDEStorm, who deal with their customer service in the UK) to send me a reference sheet thing through the post, which you then attach to the front of your envelope and send back. It just has your case number and stuff on, but grants you free postage, which is nice.

Cool stuff. Nokias are ace. Mine has 3G Internet which is awesome, I can just consult wiki or Google for answers wherever I am - I can check Google Maps (including a My Location feature which points at where you currently are on the map, which you can use to get directions from where you are to where you want to be), I can watch any YouTube video (newly mobilised), check my Gmail (woo) or simply browse the web.
It's cool being on a contract as well, not having to fanny about buying credit, never having to avoid making a call because you're low on credit, and never being in a position where you can't text or call someone. I'm on the cheapest deal and I just about use all the minutes/texts without going over.
If you're thinking of getting a camera I strongly recommend a Canon (specifically a Powershot (aka Ixus) - that's the one I have).
See you on Wednesday. Don't forget to bring your album! lol
Peace.
