Errands...and a need for electronics advice

[pixiecrinkle]

I've been really quite good this week about getting errands done at lunch time. Go me. Today I dropped the student loan deferral forms off to be completed, and got to the store to ask about upgrading my cell phone.

I have a conundrum though. I thought I wanted to get the Nokia 6800. It's got a full keyboard, and some PDA features (which cover anything I'd use a PDA for anyway). But, the price has gone back up this week, and there isn't really a break for previous customers. Though, they did tell me that state employees get all kinds of perks (Not that I am a state employee, but my ID badge would lead most people to assume I am, so therefore they have.)

So now, if I'm going to spend the money (though I haven't decided on that yet) I might as well consider the Nokia 5510, because at the same price, it's also got an MP3 player. That would take care of all of my electronics wants for a while in one little device. But the talk time is a lot shorter. And, well, let's face it. It looks like a labelmaker.

Hmmmmm...I think I'm still leaning towards the first one, because how much will I really use the mp3 player anyway?

You can tell I'm bored if I'm pontificating about this seriously. Our email server is down right now and I need to get messages to get work done. Sigh.

Get one with a camera so you can capture your friends doing all kinds of crazy embarassing things! I think the MP3 player would rock too. Might as well splurge. Nothing like an electronics purchase to make you happy for a time. I´m still running on the laptop and digital camera. :-)
