Signals come and go mate - I wouldn't worry too much at the moment. have you been working on the score board today at all?

What made you choose the 800i Sonic?
I wasn't that impressed, must admit though can't stand SE, after Ericsson arrived they managed to turn Sony's innovative stylish handsets into lumps of mass plastic stock.
Not bad features mind and a good job you didn’t go for it’s cousin the boomerang that is the W550i.
Thought you’d have been a D600 man myself.

hmmmm... mine and the kid next to me have no signal. He's obviously a lying bastard. i'll try the trusty turn off/on trick, never fails.

i've been christmas shopping in swindon. went to ask about upgrading my phone and came out with a new phone and £50 cashback.
it's a tidy little phone daz, nice camera, the walkman mp3 player is nifty and it's got loads of expandable memory. have a samsung d500 but fancied a change so not much point in going for a d600.

What phone should I get? I could extend my contract with Orange and get an upgrade, or be stuck for another 30 days then sign up with another network. I'm pretty much allowed any phone on Orange, I quite like the look of the w8ooi, but I've got the K700i and mine's fucking shit, though it has been dropped a few times while pissed etc....
