Neat Phone : Helio “Ocean”

Mar 26, 2007 in citations

Honestly, I really don’t care about new cell phones.  I’m the guy walking down the street with the 4 year old dual color Samsung (yes, that’s blue backlit and black text, no graphics here).  It’s a tad scratched but it works.

All that being said, Telus Mobility did call me the other day and try to get me to buy a new phone.  They offered $150 discount and I (supposedly) wouldn’t even have to lock myself in to a plan.  The trouble is… all their phones are boring.  I can’t think of a single compelling reason to upgrade.  It’s not just Telus either, every phone I’ve seen in Canada is boring.

Maybe if they had the new Helio phone?

Too bad it’s not (and won’t be?) available in Canada.
