Hey!

This was at first meant to be just a Christmas thread, but I decided to also complain a bit.

So today I acquired my first ever smartphone. Some of you are probably wondering how could I live so long without such a device and honestly I don't know. I just did. For the last 7 years I was using my amazing, reliable and indestructible Nokia 5130 and never really felt I needed anything else. Thanks to the Polish Post it took exactly one month to deliver my new device from Netherlands to Poland. And because I live in EU and I was lucky enough that my parcel didn't avoid a customs control, I was charged with a 23% VAT and ~$1.65 tip for Polish Post, because why not. So I'm a bit late to free my Steam account from that new great feature called escrow before the Winter Sale starts, but at least I will be free before it ends.

This is where my cool story ends, as I didn't have a time to test the phone and, but I wanted to finally give you GAs links. I hope you enjoyed it though.

And finally, GIVEAWAY TRAIN
(41 stations with 2 games not on the bundle list)

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to everyone!

Well, it arrived to my country today. Must be at the end point soon.

Btw, I don't know about your old Nokia, but my 6-7 years old Sony Ericsson is at good condition (except shabby appearance), but battery... It is more dead than alive. It also needs to be recharged every day or two, though main problem is weak load currents. You may have full-charged battery, but after a minute of talk it will turn off. You restart it and after a few minutes it again shows 80% or 90% charged. Very uncomfortable in everyday use.

Same happened to my old phone. It was in good condition, but battery needed to be charged every two days. It also would crash occasionaly and then it would take some time for it to restart.

I still manage to survive without a smart phone. I can't think of a reason why I'd want one. I use my phone to make phone calls. I like to get away from computers and not be distracted by the internet.

I used to use my phone just for texting/calling. But the smartphone should be helpful to me on the studies. And I also have some mobile apps programming in plans. So it was kinda a "must-have". Happy cake day btw!
