Smartphones are all the rage and to be hones with you, it’s a bloody good job they are smart, because without all that technology … I just would forget to recharge it! This thing beeps at me when it’s getting low on power.

Honestly though, can you think of a time before mobile phones? God what a horror that would be! Not being able to phone someone or even text someone when you wanted, or not having a camera with you at any time. These days of course, GPS and maps too.

So to all those people who took the plunge and bought massive bricks in the 80’s because it was cool, you know who you are, god bless you!

It’s that time of the year when the phone contract is up and magically they contact you to push another one on you. They tried a Blackberry but I looked on their site and found one much better, a Nokia E71. Great little phone, a little heavier than my other one, wider too, but lots of useful features for me.

I set up my gmail account on there in seconds, downloading via my wifi in a few more. Wandering around town it checks wifi spots and tries to connect if it can. God what terrible things these phones are becoming!

The time is rapidly approaching when my phone has to give up the ghost and I get a new one. Ok, so it’s just a year old but falling behind the times in this era of technological advancement. It seems there’s a new phone out every day, all hot and desirable. The iPhone for example, Keefe’s going to get one. Paddy just got a new touch screen Samsung (Tocco, I think or something like it).

Choices choices… I think I like the iPhone, but seriously disappointed with the pathetic 2Megapixel camera on it. I like having a nice high MP camera on my phone, useful for when you’re with family for example. So I think that leaves the iPhone out. So what’s left? Anyone got any ideas?
