No Phone For a Bit
July 31, 2006
I took a canoe trip this weekend, and forgot to take my cell phone out of my pocket before heading out on the river. We didn’t plan on tipping over, but who does expect to do that? At any rate, the dunk in the river turned my cell phone into a small aquarium.
I’m heading out to get a new phone today. If you’re trying to reach me, I aplogize for the inconvenience. I should have a new phone and be up and running again later this afternoon.
UPDATE: I got a new phone. It’s the RAZR V3m which has the potential to be a cool phone, but Verizon has utterly crippled the Bluetooth capabilities. After reading up on how Verizon has a track record of crippling their phone capabilities, I was tempted to switch providers, but Verizon gives me good reception which I suppose is one of the main reasons you get a cell phone in the first place. My main question is why they got rid of my favorite ring style: vibrate then ring. What was the point of disabling that, Verizon?
