Shop, Shop, Shop - update

Ok, some updates.

While the shopping was fun, not all turned out fine.

- Osim: guess what? The intended recipient choon choon also went to buy an iSqueez!! I scrambled like hell, called them to cancel the order. Unfortunately, the money has already been debited, although they allowed me to change the item. Finally 3 calls and 3 emails later, the order was changed to the uPapa and iCare200. Phew ...

- Nokia N73: instead of trying to solve 1 problem, I got hit with 2. The inability to install the old backup file into the new phone already got me quite cheesed off. I was trying to update the firmware when the thing crashed on me. It just went POOF! and refused to power up. WTFFFFF! Had to bring the phone back to the shop, and for them to t-loan me a used set, while they send it in for repairs. The trip to the Nokia Service Centre didn't help either. "We only do repairs here. Cannot help if it's software." WTFFFFF! Then why is it called a Service Centre and not a Repair Centre?? Went back to the shop to borrow the N70 PC Suite CD and data cable. Finally managed to install the old backup file into the t-loan set. But guess what? There was insufficient memory, and not everything was installed. So now, I have buttons that don't work. Should have taken Wifey's advice, and just make do with the copied-over contact list. And hack the rest!

- TV: already delivered, installed and generating happiness for the new owner already!

- 2 bags: carefully tucked away waiting to be called upon when the occasion arises

So eventful!
