All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Huh. Tells me how below average my cell use is. I have to carry a phone about four days before it needs charging.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Tells me how below average my cell use is. I have to carry a phone about four days before it needs charging.

Yeah, I charge my current phone every three or four days. When I have a phone that needs daily charging I know it's time to get a new battery.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Before I had a smartphone I could easily go 4 days without needing to charge my phone. But since I'm primarily using it to access the internet, play music, play games, etc, I have to charge it every night. It's a small price to play for Pocket Frogs and Angry Birds.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, speaking of which, CURSE YOU, FROG-BREEDING WOMAN!!

Hey, I came very late to the Pocket Frog addiction! Blame Perkins and Le Nub!

Me, too. But I also don't have a smartphone. (Occasionally my sudoku-in-the-bathroom-at-work habit will lead to more frequent charging, but not often.)

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Having a workspace in the basement and the phone constantly trying to connect to a tower drains the hell out of your battery. Yes, it's rather frustrating. Can not wait until I get the new workspace area. And new office. Hopefully both will be in prime cell phone areas.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

For someone like me who isn't on the phone much, but wouldn't mind an inexpensive smartphone for emails/web/texts, this seems like a very good deal: [link]

For $25/month, you get unlimited Messaging, Email, Data & Web and 300 minutes of talk. The phone is $250 but it's a decent Android 2.1 and there's no contract. Am I missing something? Is there another deal I should be looking at?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm pretty happy with my Virgin Mobile prepaid, and have been thinking about switching to that plan.
