My new Crackberry
I think I have been really patient. I’ve stayed away from surfing on my Sony w810, and used my Dell Laptop’s Telus evdo modem to get my fix while we’ve been on the road. But after I drove over the w810 (actually it dropped out of my pocket while I was pulled over on the side of the road having a pee, then I probably peed on it, and then I drove over it… oops) the screen has been dying little by little.
I was tagged for an upgrade to a Blackberry, and we went in to check them out. It turned out for 99 bucks, I could get a Blackberry Bold 9000, so I said yes plz.
Being able to surf and look at stuff, receive emails, and update web pages from anywhere rules! In the places I hang out, if you pull a net laptop out, it’s a conversation starter, but now, I’m just another loser addicted to playing with his phone in public. Hah!
Still so awesome! Downloaded the Facebook app, Flickr app and an app called Qik. I use it all the time, even more than I used my Sony. Bored? waiting for something or someone? It’s surf time :)
Turns out the facebook for blackberry turns off a bunch of security settings on the actual website. Fail! Had to uninstall. I took a long time hand setting them on the website, so I will just surf it like a regular page instead.
I did find some interesting web radio posts… hmm. If it is possible to stream my favorite radio station KISM, then I might be interested.
