iPhone + hellstra + random

7.01.2010

POSTED IN Personal trash

This week I managed to lose both my iPhone and home Internet connection, which means I have been living in hell!

First of all, dealing with Telstra is the biggest waste of time there could be. I had to call 5 times over 3 days just to get my phone line reconnected, and I’m still waiting! On top of that, my iPhone decided it would be a good idea to randomly die on me as I was using it.

I was getting the “infinite restarts” problem, the phone would not boot up properly and wouldn’t go bast the apple logo. Annoyingly, iTunes does not let you restore an iPhone without an Internet connection so I searched to see if any of my neighbours had something to offer me. No luck there.

Instead of restoring my old iPhone I decided to get a new one, and somehow managed to do just that at 10pm. I still needed Internet to activate it so off to mcdonalds carpark I went! They have 100% free wifi now which came in very handy! Having a new iPhone means that I’d lose over 25,000 text messages (You would text that much too if you had unlimited). iTunes did give me the option to restore a backup but I chose not to, I still had all my contacts but I didn’t see the point of restoring all my messages and apps. It’s a new year, new start.

So now I’m sitting here writing this pointless blog. I really shouldn’t call it a blog, I don’t know who would waste their time reading it. It’s more of a diary, an archive. I’ll read it again in 10 years to remind myself how lame I was/still am. Still waiting for my phone line to be reconnected! I hate telstra. Although I am considering forking out $200 a month for 200GB DSL2 as they are the only provider in my area

I type way too fast on the iPhone, need rehab. Can’t wait for the weekend it’s gonna be the biggest one yet!

Random. Over and out.
