Phone blogging

Of course, (she says, with a sigh) the other reason my phone signal suddenly disappeared yesterday morning could well have been the well known and widely reported iPhone4 aerial problems.  Just now, whilst fiddling with my phone I noticed the signal suddenly disappear in exactly the same way – but moved my hand from that bottom left hand corner and watched the five bars return instantly.  Next time, will someone please give me a nudge and remind me to hold the phone more carefully?

 

Yes, thank you, Apple, I have got a complimentary rubber bumper, custom made with holes in all the right places and fitting perfectly.  Trouble is, the hole for the charging cable is ever-so-slightly too small to accommodate the manufacturer supplied charging connection, meaning that every time I plug it in, I have to remove the bumper.  After three days I decided not to put it back on.

Such clever design.  Such irritating design.

would something hot ... who knows what ... enlarge the hole enough? I know that having the new hot thing is one of the ways to find out what is wrong with it, but this one has been a comedy of errors..... I just wait for version 4 when most of the kinks have been worked out, the price has come down ... and most important .. my two year contract has expired. Actually, I think the last is the real reason <VBG>

it IS cute, though

My contract did expire recently and I got a tiny sony phone which is lovely but, so far, quite maddening. I couldn't justify the iphone having shipped in an ipad as a treat. I think I've peaked technologically - I can't cope with all the different upgrades and systems and whizziness although I'm always swayed by something black and shiny with a touchscreen. How do you blog from your phone???
