Rating: I’ve got more phones than you!

I loved this post from SMS Text News about dear old me

‘Geez. That person’s a class-A geek like me,’ I thought, ‘You don’t see many of them around.’
Who was it? None other than Bena Roberts, Founder and Chief Analyst of BKI Media — and also Editor of GoMo News! GoMo’s been in my feeds for a while so it was nice to actually say hi to Bena

and I just want to say SMS text news is also a favourite of mine and that I have added to my geek device range.

I would like to personally thank T-Mobile for sending me the Nokia W880i with MPS-70 portable speakers and Bluetooth Music Receiver MBR-100. I definitely feel myself simply closer to T-Mobile and this is a great thank-you for attending the T-Mobile Summer Showcase (articles here and here).

As a thank-you I am going to purchase a T-Mobile UK SIM. I have a German one but its about time I had a UK one too to add to my 3,Vodafone, Orange numbers (by the way O2 is the only operator that I haven’t had a free phone from in the past year … Boo Ha!).

The second device is not a phone but a Nokia 770 Internet Tablet. There is a great story actually about how I got it that embraces the whole world of social networking.

Basically, I was updating Twitter when Technokitten published a mirco-blog saying just got this…Nokia 770…. I clicked the TinyURL and got to expansys. The offer was for the Nokia 770 regular retail price GBP 300: Internet special promotion for only GBP 74.

So I purchased one and I have to say – I am quite excited. If it works well enough it might be a life saver. Its officially my first ever Twitter recommendation but what a great way of non-search related discovery? (Oh dear, am going off on a tangent - but am getting ready to write several blogs and two analyst pieces on Nokia’s mobile search).
