A630 Will Soon Be Mine

20Nov04

T-mobile has launched the Motorola A630 for $300, no rebates, and Amazon is listing it again for $100 after a $200 rebate but the ship time still says 4-6 weeks.
Auf wiedersehen, CingulAT&T.
PS: The T-Zones Overview says the difference between T-Zones and T-Zones Pro is unlimited access to corporate e-mail. How does that translate into a […]

This stuff is supposed to be easy?

My Gateway Connected DVD Player had no video love for me, but now it’s working great.

Still Playing

One week later, I’m still enjoying my Audiovox SMT5600. The horizontal belt case that it came with has already broken. Jawbreaker is massively addictive — my highest “Big Burst” score is currently 420.
