brain cancer

By anders pearson 15 Mar 2001

today i finally broke down and bought a cellphone. Ericsson T28 World. my coworker got one today as well and when he showed me the phone and the plans that they had, i decided that i had been left behind for long enough.

my metric for the ideal cellphone has always been that i want a phone that is small enough to accidentily swallow. well, consumer technology doesn’t seem to be quite there yet, but we’re getting closer. i can fit the entire thing in my mouth. not sure if that voids my warranty or not though.

interestingly, i hadn’t really done much research on calling plans until my coworker got the same phone but it really looks like you can get a comparable, if not better deal with a cellphone than with a regular wired phone. especially if you make lots of long distance calls. the fact that you can get your email forwarded to your cellphone is pretty sweet too. and the funky brain cancer is just icing on the cake.
