Shiny New Toy

As a result of my "strange behaviour" mentioned recently I have taken delivery of a new phone to replace the SonyEricsson T68i (which took a soaking down the toilet).

As you can see from the picture it's a lovely SonyEricsson T610 on Orange. Very smart. First impressions are good. It's actually slightly smaller than the old phone but the screen is twice the size. Included on the phone is a nifty little camera plus all the usual goodies such as Bluetooth etc. The only downside I can see at the moment is the lack of the Naval Command game (Battleships) which filled my regular afternoon break sitting on the toilet trying to sink a sub (ooh err... did you see what I did there? Comedy). Modesty forbids me commenting on the battery (I design rechargeable batteries for a living) but suffice to say if you need a spare one for a T610 then give us a shout.

All that is left for me is to wonder if my laptop will fit down the pan in the same way, and whether I'd get away with it.

  • So it's you I blame for my T610's poor battery life? Mini golf's better than Naval Command anyway.

  • Actually no I didn't design it and in fact my company doesn't manufacture that particular model (we're supplying their low and high range models at the mo). But, if you need a spare one give us a shout as we are getting a batch sent over from Shanghai (from a competitor).

    The battery I'm currently working on (if configured as 3.7v) would power your phone for about 7 years between recharges. It weighs 25Kg though and will be used by wireless telecom sub-stations.
