It's an artform, being able to browse surreptitiously. Having a very low boredom threshhold also contributes... That, together with chronic insomnia :-) Mario, have you seen the 8800 yet? Not too bad, hmmm?

Has the insurance company contacted you about your 6600's replacement,Kryptik?
Don't let the buggers stall things.I'm sure we all know how ridiculously tardy insurance companies can be...

@kryptik, the 8800 is sure a good looking phone, but if youve got big fingers it's not the mobile for you, damn those keys are close also the weight of it, quite heavy 134g.

Just had a call from them, 5-7 more working days. They've ordered another 6600, non-negotiable :-( I had hoped to kick in the difference on a different handset, but *sigh* ja nee, so gaan dit.

all the insurance company's I know of give you the option of purchasing any handset up to whatever your'e insured for , it's really baffles me why your'e not given that option, you should check on this kryptik.

Just been able to log in now, day's been hectic with armed robbery @ work, and assorted other hassles. Just left message on their machine re- choice of handset. (Auto&Gen'l) Spoke to after-hours consultant who couldn't comment on their policy regarding this issue. Hopefully i'll be able to post happier news tomorr.

Browsing through the SE section at
www.cacell.co.za I ask myself the question what's the use of having an online shop when your prices get beaten by the Game's and the Makro's of this world. To illustrate my point, they're asking R2000 for the K700...just yesterday I saw the phone being advertised for R1800 albeit excluding the price of the starterpack. Still an online retailer should be at least cheaper because they don't have huge overheads.
Check out that site and tell me if I'm just a cheapskate.

LOL brix,
then da Wanqsta must be some kind of champ of the cheapskates,as I am on the daily net-prowl to see what specials are to be had.
The King of Bling 8800 going for a mere R7900 on that site...

...or pay R50 more and you'll be able to get a P910i AND a Z800i!
It must be nice for those with more money than common sense. I'm not denying that, aesthetically, the 8800 is something very larny and chic.
Maybe the 8800 is like having a relationship with a stuck-up supermodel..all show but not much go...and both will probably put your credit card in the red...

@wanqsta: I'd like to see the expression on someone's face who'll be losing an 8800. Talking of prices saw a 42inch plasma being advertised for R14k at Makro...ok it's a no-name brand(Maxdorf) and the resolution is nothing to write home about but still it's a good sign that prices are falling.
