  Usually it takes me more than months to use up RM100 reload card for my mobile phone. Celcom suck it all up in 1 day. I called Celcom support to find out but the support staff said Celcom network is not meant for iPhone. What a statement to get rid of customer??!!

  The staff told me that my iPhone is accessing internet. I asked them to tell me what server my iPhone is accessing. They cannot tell me. Believed me I know how to switch off APN/Edge and even turn off push feature on all my email accounts. I have SBsettings & BossPrefs to disable Edge, 3G or any Internet access through telco.

  Surprisingly, it starts sucking my money after I return from travel. I suspect that Celcom must have reset my configuration on my account. Previous 2 months, it was good as I have no charges on Internet.

  Anyway, I hop back to my good old Digi. Service was superb, activated my phone in less than 24 hours. Digi, please improve your signal at my home and my office. If you do that, I will stay on forever with you!

• callerTunes I Hate!

  I really don’t understand why people want to change the “receiving tone” to music. Oh it is called callerTunes. For those who have not come across this. It is when you call someone’s mobile, the mobile suppose to go “tut tut, tut tut…” until she picks up. Now she replaced the “tut tut” tone with a song. It is loud, annoying and those songs they chose are horrible. I have to bear with it until the person picks up.

  Bad idea! Not everyone like your choice of music. Worst is the person I called was my supplier. I am very put off by it as a customer. If you are running a business, please get rid of callerTunes. It is good if you know your customer’s favorite song. If you don’t turn it off. First time hearing it, I thought I dial the wrong number or the mobile had problem.

  Just imagine when you are depressed and someone chose a more depressing song for you to hear. How depressing.

  What do you get when you combine all this into one?

  Isn’t technology amazing? I cannot imagine me carrying all the above out. The reason why I bought the phone is because the price slashed almost 50% and it has an mp3 player. By the way, if you have a java enable phone, install opera mini for browser. It is very cool, better than the IE on the phone. You can check gmail, blog (if you like punching alphabet on the phone which I hate), chat…etc.

  I always wonder how people can use the phone to SMS chat, they really good at it too. Very fast. I had so much trouble, just sending “OK” to my friends. Send him a few “6” instead of “OK”. Tell you how much I SMS. Now, I can connect this phone to my notebook and use the keyboard to SMS. Pretty cool. Oh well, so much for my new toy.
