Default Great my phone hates me.

Plugged the phone into the computer to back up all my contacts. For reasons best known to nokia's software it decided to update the firmware.


Now its deader than a doornail, and I have to go see T-Mobile tomorrow. Seems quite a common problem according to nokia's forum.


This will treach me for looking at upgrades.


Apple please bring your phone over here quickly plllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeeeeeee eee.

6280 and having read nokia's forum, a more then common problem. Luckily I run 2 contracts so I have a backup phone, even if it does mean swapping sim cards every so often.

And now my night is just getting worse. Just made a phone to find out the plans for tomorrow, to find my plans have just changed. I was supposed to be photographing a band in Dagenham, just found out they have forgotten to get me access to the venue, so the only way in is to spend 15 quid on a ticked **** that.

Its not like I was charging them either, I was doing it as a freebee as I fancy the **** off 1 of them and she knows it. Which probably explains the ooo we forgot answer.


Sorry that was a bit of a rant
I am now thourghily pished off.

ugh - apple phone...

Will it insist that you install apple software on every bit of electronics you have before it will allow you to make any calls (obviously, you'll have to change all your telephone numbers into a special format that only apple phones understand)

Well - according to all their new adverts I'm too stupid to be able to use a Mac so buying one would be totally pointless
