Going mobile
I bought a new phone a couple of months ago as part of a better value contract and because it looked as if it was better on the web. Interestingly I didn't really know what I was getting with it and using it has pushed me into mobile living - I am using my laptop much less as I find it easier to check my email etc on the phone.
