Yesterday I had the privilege to walk around the Sony Ericsson world HQ in Lund, Sweden. It was pretty cool. For kicks, I did a network search and found two secret networks, S 98 and S 99. S 98 is standard GSM and S 99 is UMTS. Unfortunately I couldn't join either them, using any of my SIM cards I had on me (T-Mobile US, Vodafone UK, 3 SE, Telia S). I wish I had some crappy 850/1900 phone on me to see if they had test networks for those as well. Thought the SE fan world might be interested

SE HQ:

I live down the street from that place, and it's indeed a kind of mecca.

(naturally, pictures taken with k750i)

Actually, I do have more, but not of SE HQ. My trip to Sweden was only one day and basically all of the pics are my V800 and T68i on Icelandic, Danish, and Swedish networks.

I forgot I had my BB on me, but who cares about BB.
