Slightly off-topic.... Happy Valentine y'all.
I am currently burning money on Glo GPRS. Vmobile GPRS not available at my home or office. I have a feeling we may still enjoy freebies on MTN GPRS again. They just have not covered Naija yet.

@amby: I tire for you. There's no perfect device. Me, I always follow the rule "FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE FORM". So, if a device delivers on the featurs and functions I need, I can deal with whatever its form.
In my experience, the 9500 has never been too big for me. And, yes, the camera does a very good job, nothwithstanding that its not mega-pixel.
Unless my 9500 dies, i have no motivation to change it yet - and for some time to come. i found my ideal device and I'm loving it.
I was at zinox office, Gbagada today and my 9500 shows a Wi-fi presence icon. trust me; I attempt to connect but find out thie network requires a WEP key and data. I fiddle with it for 5 seconds and I'm browsing free on Zinox's WLAN network!
And you people wonder why I love my 9500!

Aya, as you already know, one other factor hindering my acquiring a 9500, is that my Oga uses one too. I remember telling you about the "Jeep issue" and you recommended I wait for the 9300i
Instead. No, the 9500 is definitely out.
Mikky money no dey o, even the 9500 you recommend will not be less than 85k. Any new
except the P990 will hit the market at sub 70k

@amby: I sympathise with you in that position, really. Me, I can't stand all those complexes bosses have, so I chose to work for nobody (and I'm not suggesting anything). I got to be my own boss. I can drive ANYTHING. Use ANYTHING, and at ANYTIME. If any of my clients are not happy with that, they may very well take a dive in the Lagos Lagoon
My wife tells me I wouldn't last as an employee.

@Amby Beware .... most Nigerian Oga's will eat U raw. They feel they should be "boss" in everything. The key issue is: WILL YOU BE ANY BETTER IN YOUR TIME?
@All... MTN Nigeria won an Award at the GSM Association Awards 2006 in Spain. They won the "Best Mobile Community Service or Initiative" for the Rural Women Telephone Project. It is like the Glo NAPEP thing but for Women.... I think it was done in the East... not too sure.
Congratulations MTN!

@amby: Don't lose hope on SE and their new line of slim smartphones; I am sure a camera-emphasized version of this form factor will be released soon. SE announced a music version [W950] two days ago so there's hope for a S900/S950 smartphone. I am so happy that SE is finally expanding beyond the P series smartphones.
Pocket PC phones are good options too. Almost all new PPC running on WM2005 have integrated WiFi & 2mp cameras. Forget what mamba said about battery life and OS. The windows mobile OS is very stable, and my Jam and other WM2003 PPCs have significantly improved battery life. The major con is that they are quite expensive and prices don't drop drastically as nokias and SEs.

@coola: I read thru your post at normal speed without any problems. GSM boycott tomorrow? I didnt know there was a GSM boycott tomorrow.??@areafada: Download & install d latest version of PC Suite from Nokia.com. It simplifies internet connectivity between PC & the 9500 a great deal.
