Developing a desire for a candybar handset

I don’t know what’s come over me.

I really feel like using a real phone.

A phone’s phone. You know, a real, candybar style phone.

I still very much like my E61…. just, I dunno… I’ve been eyeing my N73 and thinking, maybe, just maybe, I should convert to using that as my main handset…

But then, I can’t tell you how exciting it is, from a TOTALLY geeky perspective, to walk along the river by the Notre Dame with nothing by the E61 in my pocket, knowing that I can call, text, or email right there, right now. I really like that ‘connected potential’ feeling.

I can query my 1.8gig email folders immediately, from anywhere. I can knock up a google map and find out where I am, and even see a satellite image of my location, there and then. Or I can make a phone call
