Yey My phone's back from its holiday

I got my phone back from the Carphone Warehouse! I've missed using my own phone. It transpires that it was ready last Monday on the 22nd. But they were calling up my old home number and couldn't get to me. Didn't they think of ringing my mobile number??
Thanks very much to Laura for lending me her spare phone, saving me from that horrid piece of Motorola junk which I had to pay a £100 deposit to borrow from the Carphone Warehouse. With hindsight I should have called 3 to repair my phone instead of the retailer. Cos what 3 do, is send you an instant replacement, coulda saved myself a lot of time. But knowing how 3–mobile work, I might have just saved myself a lot of unnecessary grief!
They've replaced my phone again with a new one. This is the third K608i since September. The fault was incredibly weird this time as well. Unfortunately its SIM–locked again. And this time Chris isn't sure he can unlock newer K608's :(
Update: This phone has got the buggiest excuse of a firmware, its so bad! Keeps crashing. The last one was immaculate... apart from the fact it didn't turn on...

Welcome back to the club, don't get your hopes up yet though, your phone will have to go through an ancient initiation ceremony known only as the Pursell Test.

To brick, or not to brick, that is the question!

My sister was fond of the Persil test – no phone's ever survived the washing machine.
