Lost my Vodafone Nokia E90… arse
Yes, triple arse. Quadruple arse. Somewhere amongst the bustling morning, I lost my Vodafone branded Nokia E90. Or it was stolen. I don’t quite know. One moment it was in my pocket, another moment it was gone.
What a total arse.
The moment I realised, I got out my 3UK handset and called Vodafone UK. They’ve barred the SIM from making outgoing calls. I rather helpfully put the phone on silent/vibrate so even if it’s lying somewhere (like, for example, in the back of that limo I was in this morning), it’s not going to be easy to draw attention to it.
I couldn’t speak to the insurance department because they were unfortunately closed. I have to phone back ‘first thing’ tomorrow — so perhaps later on this evening, my time, here in the States. I doubt they’d send a new E90 out to me in Las Vegas. I reckon that’s a little bit beyond the standard insurance plan I have. I’ll let you know how I get on. I’m not back in the UK until next Thursday so I think I will be E90-less for more than a week.
If you’re trying to call me, go ahead. It’ll go to Spinvox voicemail, hopefully. And I’ll get the message by email. If not, you can call/text my US mobile number courtesy of Microsoft: +1 702 445 3872.
Here’s the E90 yesterday, in better, joyful times:
aaahhhh… memories

Those horrid belt holsters have some worthwhile purpose, I guess.
Have you considered having a phone surgically attached?
Posted by HeavyLight on April 3rd, 2008 at 11:32 am.An N73? My god, no! I feel your pain! ;o) I also know a thing or two about losing a precious piece of tech goodness in the States! :o(

Posted by Anthony on April 3rd, 2008 at 6:02 pm.Try not to be so hard on the N73 - it’s a respectable old workhorse! It was my introduction to S60 and looked after me for a long time. I only retired it because I couldn’t resist the lure of the N95 8GB. It’s still sitting here in a draw with it’s battery off, just in case the new-fangled one lets me down…………
