08-05-2008 - The gift

APAD_20080508 (The gift)

Today was an interesting day. I received a call from Vodafone in the morning telling me that I had won a phone and today was the last day I could come and pick it up! No details, nothing. Anyway, I made my way over to their corporate office and came back with a brand new Magic Box 225 that put a huge smile on my wife's face when she saw it.

So how did you like it? Neat ain't it?

Esp. considering the price!

Yeah it's pretty neat. I was just generally browsing through the menus and most of the most frequently used stuff is available, which is just great!

We haven't "used it" used it yet, but just popped my SIM into it and switched it on for a while and tried to make a call to our land-line. Just a small "test drive" :).

Really liked the size and weight. It's much lighter than my 6800. I don't lose stuff too often so the lighter weight isn't a problem for me like it is for some (the "won't notice it if it's gone" types). In any case, we're not going to start using it any time soon. I'm still waiting for my 6800 to turn 5 (November this year) and my wife has already laid claim to this little puppy!
