Blue Teeth

Since I got my new cellphone I've been having loads of fun playing with all the nifty features it comes with. The old one suddenly seems so outdated! Yeah, I'm a bit of a gadget chick.. :-)

But it's taken an entire week and a bit to set up Bluetooth and get the darn thing talking to the laptop. Remember those idiocy levels I mentioned? Yup, they kicked in big-time on this one, to the point of forgetting that the phone actually came with an installation disk for the PC! But now that that's sorted, it's all good.

(OH, before I forget - one and a half weeks. That's how long it took Virgin to port my number. Not 24 hours as initially promised. But thankfully the darn thing is through at last.)

I have big plans for my little cellphone. To start with I've given it a cool wallpaper. An Olivia wallpaper - so you'll know it's mine. In fact I'm surrounded by Olivia - cellphone, computer background and one pic stuck up on the frosted glass divider by my desk. I figure if I have enough of her to look at I can't avoid getting stuck in to what needs doing! Except that, as Steve reckons, I may need a wetsuit to work on her this weekend...

So that's the first thing done to the phone. I've been checking out other free downloads online too, seeing as it's so easy to transfer stuff to the phone now. A while ago I bookmarked a Lifehacker tip on creating your own cellphone ringtones. I got some Tchoons waiting for reworking!

I've also customized one particular ringtone and added an image, and just yesterday managed to send my first MMS.

Getting there! Slow and steady, bit at a time. There's still a lot of functionality to explore.

But these blue teeth totally rock.
