Dancing in the sheets.

Having failed to find any of the several phones-and-chargers I know are kicking around here, I have bought something cheap and horrible (cheap and cheerful, really) for ten quid. It makes calls and has an FM radio which Freda promptly danced around to and I expect the K750i will show up tomorrow.

Domesticity is becoming rather busy; unlikely to be leaving the house much at all in the next month or two, barring work (at which I am doing my boss's job as well as my own for the next fortnight). I remain somewhat contactable online.

I have been on an alt-med binge, having read literally every page of Wiki4CAM. In the last coupla days we have Oprah Winfrey, Acupressure, Bach flower remedies, Craniosacral therapy, Pranic healing, ThetaHealing™, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Isopathy. And mind uploading.

I have the same phone, but I've come to quite like it.
Cheap & cheerful, it is light, has good battery, OK sound quality, and fairly easy to use (though mass-delete of SMS would be good).
No easy phonebook sync but I can bluetooth contacts across from my PC.

"Cheap and cheerful" - yep! It's a "voice and texts" phone that is small, thin, light and has reasonably-sized buttons and display. It is clearly disposable, but also shows phones moving into pocket calculator territory, i.e. a quid for something with big buttons and a big display that runs on ambient light, and the plastic case is probably the most expensive item on the bill of materials. Here's to Moore's Law.

arkady is due for an iPhone upgrade when she's had her BlackBerry a while longer, but my old mostly-dead phone, a Motorola V525, was frankly giving me the absolute shits.
