cell phone is down...

Temporarily, while the NASA telecoms office transfers the number over to my new phone -- a Treo 650 that apparently came in yesterday. I should be able to pick it up this afternoon... good thing, as my old 3-year-old Motorola T720 is both flaky and the batteries barely recharge.

In the meanwhile, my cell number is unavailable this afternoon...

Having picked it up, I was dismayed to discover that they had decided to switch me from Verizon to Sprint. No wonder the Treo showed up so quickly... I'd planned to wait until Verizon had it in June. This means that various Verizon-using folks who used to get free mobile-to-mobile calls to my phone, now won't... plus, Sprint appears to have zero reception from my office. Feh.

No, not that at all- 128M was a minimum, not a max. The 1G cards are lovely. I'm managing on 2 128's at the moment, but might give in soon.

We do need to make a Fry's run somehow tomorrow.... they carry SD cards, among other things.

(Also, I bet you can switch back to verizon once they carry the phones, if you wanted to.. they can be unlocked.)

There's no Sprint coverage in either my office or home... I'm on the verge of just returning everything and asking them to restore my old phone.
