Searching for a cell phone

My nokia 5610 is screwed up with hardware issues - it was a really good deal that time ( my sister and bro in law gifted it to me) .Nonetheless it worked well - 3.2 mp phone camera was worth it and for the very little amount of music I listen to the loudspeaker quality was decent.
Anyways, now with the memory card not being read by the phone, the slider acting cranky affecting the screen display its time for me to look around for a new one. And man its proving to be a tough !!
For the budget in mind there are no good phones - either they are slider ones or dont have a decent camera.I have gone to google and did recee the stores , the nokia e 63 looks good so far . My room mate has picked up the same and it does look good- wat does add up in the end is that its time for me to move up the value chain

Masinagudi

It was after a long time that I had a road trip weekend .Went to masinagudi with office colleagues and man it was an awesome place to stay at the homestay- Mountain Mist . It was my responsibility to make sure that the place we stay be a good one - after all I had called up my pal in Mysore to find out somebody to arrange this. And everything fell beautifully into place. The homestay was just nestled under the foothills of the Nilgiris and man it was so silent that talking in loud voices there made one feel guilty.

It made me doubly happy and proud when such things fell in place for rarely have I got a chance to do things single handedly esp when one is the youngest in the family and most of the time made to sit on the fence.. It showed that I could do things on my own and that too smartly - that I can pull it off when the time came .

Finally on facebook !

Sometime ago I commented on a cartoon strip that appeared in Sunday Times - about a woman not being on Facebook and how she did not want to succumb to conforming to the world around her.
I tried my best to hold out and not be on that networking site - the entire world was there and that was exactly the reason I held out but finally succumbed. Another reason I held out was the concept of being on a networking site is bit oxymoron - if u want to stay connected- pick up the phone and call why be on a virtual network ?

I poked my brother in law and added a few friends - lets see how things work out ....
