The world surrenders to the town.

Tonight, redcountess, arkady and myself plan to hit B-Movie. We aim to get there early and will probably leave by midnight. We have a shitload of stuff to do tomorrow, but a night out is medically required. I will not be dressed up as all my nice clothes are back in the flat (taking on the musty smell) and I weigh 5kg too much to do the mesh top. Meh! So who else is out tonight at B-Movie early on?

My phone (a Siemens S35) verily doth suck. The battery's pretty much dead, but the phone sucks too much to spend money on. Please advise me what phones do SMS return receipts that are switched on by default (unlike, e.g., Liz's Motorola V525, which does receipts but needs them set each message). The automatic return receipt thing is the Killer Feature that's made me keep this thing.

But does it do them automatically for every call, or do you have to tell it each time that you want one?

If you've turned it on, it does it automatically for every message.

My nokia 6230 does that as well. And it takes dodgy pictures, I like.

I don't think that had come out when I got my Motorola V525, darn! I wants it!

Having to ask for the things each time you send a message doesn't count as 'doing receipts' to my mind. What kind of moronic half-feature is that?!

You toggle whether or not you want to receive them, and it holds state until you toggle it the other way.

I did have trouble with BT Cellnet (whatever they're called now) who insisted that I should be receiving the things when I wasn't, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't the phone's fault. It works fine on Orange.

"What kind of moronic half-feature is that?!"

That would be about what I said when Liz showed me that it worked that way on her Motorola V525, and why I'm asking specifically ...
