I am such an idiot when it comes to any kind of technology - but I've been in desperate need of a new cell phone for a while.
So I finally got my T-Mobile bill paid up so I could negotiate a new contract with them. I've been with T-Mobile forever - actually I started with Omnipoint, which turned into VoiceStream, which was bought by T-Mobile. So even though my credit in the real world sucks ass, T-Mobile thinks I'm the Daddy Mack.
So I called them up and: a) got 400 texts/month b) got unlimited calling, and c) got a new free phone. And I got all of this for LESS than I was paying before. Previously I had to pay for all my text messages and I only had so many daytime minutes I could use each month.
And yesterday I received my free Nokia 5310...
Please DO NOT leave comments about how much this phone sucks. As long as this bitch can make and receive calls, I'm happy. And to demonstrate how 20th Century I am (as opposed to you 21st Century kids) - the only thing I figured out how to do was operate the FM Radio. I was thrilled!! Yeah, the phone also has one of those MP3 thingies, (I think) but I'm still not quite sure how those bitches work. I CAN, however, operate an FM Radio. Most of the time.
Even Oscar tried to show me some of the neat features of my new Nokia, but all I want to do is listen to the radio...
If it could just play my old Culture Club cassettes, my phone would be absolutely PERFECT...
