I got a new cell phone.

It is a lot of fun. I got a Sony Ericsson T610 from tmobile. as you probably know I was way into sprint phones for awhile. and I recently used the new number portability rule to switch from sprint to tmobile. it was relatively painless - but I spent to much on the phone. btw. bluetooth RULES.

A500Hacking.com

I got a Samsung A500 from sprint and found what i was looking for. The phone had so much potential - but no one was really taking advantage of it. So i made a500hacking.com.
