Amazon was running a great rebate deal on the Nokia 3650 which basically has them and AT&T or T-Mobile paying you $20 to get the phone with a 2 year contract. Since this phone is the uber-geek phone with a JVM, Symbian OS, camera, Bluetooth, and infrared among other thing, I fell for it hook, line and sinker. Of course, since I already had another contract with AT&T, this means that Mary now has a cell phone as well. I had to upgrade my existing phone to a 3595 because in order for us to have a shared plan we both have to be on the GSM/GPRS network as opposed to TDMA which is what my existing phone was on. The coolest (read as geekiest) thing about this is that with the new phone, I can now moblog. I’m going to permanently link this somewhere, but you can check out the first post (and subsequent posts) here. It’s setup such that I can take a picture with the phone, attach it to an email with whatever text I want and send it to the site. It’ll automagically post the text and picture as an entry on the moblog. Pretty sweet.
We went over to Ted and Jenny’s for dinner tonight to meet Tess. Kids and grown-ups had a good time. I’ll post pictures from the digital camera later tonight or tomorrow.
