addicted to mobile internet

after three years of sticking with my old phone, i decided to get a new one. finally! i owe it to myself, the navi key of my old phone is pretty screwed up already anyway. imagine, the down function won't work. i already had a workaround system in place. but the bottom line is, i didn't have to. so I got myself a new phone.

so, after hours of googling all mobile phones, i have decided to purchase a samsung. my sister has a samsung, and she has been raving about how nice it is and all. so i took her advice and purchased one for myself. i had a different unit in mind, though. i wanted a phone that a.) has a nice camera, b.) has a pretty decent music player, c.) has a large memory, or at least one that is expandable, and d.) has internet connection via wifi, gprs,hsdpa.

i was thinking of purchasing the pda phone of samsung, but i realized i may not be able to utilise the pda functions of the phone, so that would be a waste. i finally decided on the samsung sgh-g810, which, as it turns out, is samsung's phone to compete against the nokia n95. not bad, eh? both have the symbian OS, have a 5MP camera, are slider phones and are of the same height. the samsung, however, is sleeker, albeit a bit on the thicker side.

what i found truly amazing (and addicting), is the fact that i could go online practically anytime, as long as i got a clear 3G signal or if there's wifi available. and that's now the main purpose of my phone. i mean, yes i still use it for texts and calls, of course. but given the fact that i got another mobile number with cheaper rates, i tend to just use it for the internet.

not that i'm complaining, mind you.
