I've got your number written on the back of my hand

[venta]

My phone's gone off to be Looked At (and, with luck, Seen To) by the nice phone shop people. I have a borrowed Nokia to tide me over til it comes back, and so I am temporarily bereft of numbers.

So: Please can anyone who sends me an sms sign their name to it ? Even if you *know* I've got your number ? Otherwise there's a strong chance I won't know who you are.

And no, I haven't broken my own phone. Well, only a little bit. It had a bizarre intermittent fault, which I have no doubt they won't be able to reproduce. So, they'll probably just flash it, and send it back to me with all my numbers wiped :(

I've got a Vodafone phone. It's a Sagem my V-65, which I believe you can *only* get from Vodafone: it's been customised specifically for them.

The interface sucks. If this is an example of their standardised interface, then they all suck.

(eg. Phone book: Press 2 to go to "A", 3 to go to "D" etc. If you are on "A", and you press 2, you... go to "A". My Seimens went to "B", and then "C". The fastest way to get to "Smith" in my Phone book is to press 8, for "T", and then scroll up. And that's just a mild example. T9... Don't start me on T-bloody-9! Teach it new words? Can you buggery? OOh. I've just checked. It knows how to spell that. Wow. First dubious word it's recognised!)

My old Nokia phone was lovely, but then I lost it and couldn't get another. So now I've got some Siemens (I think) gubbins. What I really want, though, is a proper bakelite mobile phone with a rotary dial and none of this texting nonsense.
