OK, I’m so cross I’m inspired to blog!

I’ve had a few phones in the past - each gaining in sophistication on the previous model - an experience I’m sure I share with many people. The phones are now trying so hard to be more than just a phone - email, pda, mp3 player, modem …

I’ve currently got a Sony Ericsson K750i which was quite cool when I got it (aren’t they all?) and it did a job. But I always regretted putting the bloody CD in my computer to install the ‘PC Suite’ - the computer has run like a dog ever since - it never did what it said it would do (sync stuff up etc.) so I basically gave up - and stick to treating the thing as a phone.

But the little joystick nipply thing first stopped going down, then stopped period. Common problem I gather. I ‘acquire’ a spare phone and go to try and copy all my settings, contacts, ringtones, games etc. from one to the other - so I’m back in the world of the PC Suite and now I’m REALLY CROSS!

Whoever came up with the idea of mobile bloody phones and tried to make them clever?

I wish I was one of the few who refuse to use the frigging things!
