More phone dithering

Alice's phone is being unreliable, so I could use that as an excuse to pass my phone to her and buy myself a shiny new one (along with my PDA's previously mentioned flaky sync socket).

Tesco are about to do the iPhone as PAYG for less than Play charge for an unlocked 3G, and with 3GS also available from Tesco.

But the principle of an Android phone still appeals, e.g. Geeksphone One, HTC Tattoo.
And there are lots of rumours of assorted future Android stuff.

Or a boring less shiny Windows Mobile Zinc II would be rather cheaper.

(Edit: But T-Mobile Pulse now less than that:

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

"Abantu bazaalibwa nga balina eddembe n'obuyinza ebyenkanankana, batondebwa nga balina amagezi era nga basobola okwawula ekirungi n'ekibi bwebatyo, buli omu agwana okuyisa munne nga muganda we."

There are so many peoples and languages represented in the list of available translations of the world's most translated document. This is Luganda, "most widely spoken second language next to English" in Uganda - a Ugandan MP is currently defending their Anti-Homosexuality Bill by saying it's all right, the death penalty is only for aggravated offenses.

Meme via muninnhuginn. (Though I still don't really like memes that even implicitly suggest that if you don't choose to copy them, it could be because you disapprove of e.g. human rights.)
