A Calling Station No More!

I actually only wish this post was poker related, but alas it’s not! Last night I went out to the forum in Waterford. It’s where I usually go out on a Saturday night because I’m part of the “alternative crowd” and places where they play trance and black people music make my eyes and ears bleed! It’s pretty much no holds barred and the dancing - if you could even call it that - consists of jumping up and down and into people! It’s crazy stuff, but I can think of no better way to spend my Saturday nights that doesn’t involve coke and hookers!

Anyway, while I was “dancing”, my almost brand new Atom Life phone slipped out of my pocket while I was in midair and came back down to earth with a crunch! For those of you who aren’t familiar with this phone, think of it as the perfect portable media player, the perfect texting tool and the perfect mobile internet surfer.. it’s a pretty decent phone too! The stylus (pull out tool for the touch screen) went flying across the dancefloor, but I didn’t give a crap about the worthless piece of metal and only cared for the €320 phone which upon closer inspection I found had its TFT screen turned into an illegible black and white mess! Sick!

I’ve sent off an email to the manufacturer saying that the screen slowly stopped working properly. Hopefully they’ll believe me, or feel sorry for me and will repair it free of charge. It’s well within warranty after all, but I suppose the warranty doesn’t cover me for it falling from about 6ft onto the ground! I’ll just have to wait and see!
