Broke my cellphone, replaced with a broken(!=?) iPhone

Monday, August 4th, 2008

The other day I slammed my Nokia E65 on my table, breaking the screen. It still works, but the screen is entierly black. Don’t have a device to take a picture or video of it, but you get the picture..

I had to get another cellphone anyways. This phone was pretty buggy and beaten up already so I ordered myself an Apple iPhone 3G from the only distributor of it in Norway, Netcom.

I received the phone on saturday and was really excited about it. I booted it up and everything looked perfect. After browsing this wonder I had to try the iPod-part, since I’ve never used an iPod before (yeah, never). I shutdown Ubuntu and booted windows to access iTunes to be able to sync my music. What’s up with that? there isin’t only two OS’s in this world you know.

Back on track; I transfered some mp3’s over and tried to play them, but no sound, hmm. Making a long story short; my Apple iPhone 3G’s speaker was/is dead. And since it only has one speaker (one microphone and one speaker), I’m screwed.

The phone is going back to Moobi to be replaced with an working iPhone 3G ASAP.
