SITEX - new Handphone

At the recent SITEX show, I finally decided to get a new handphone after I lost my previous phone's charger. Went to the exhibition on a friday evening. It was not as crowded as it would be on the weekends. Found the phone which I was looking for the Omnia. I had tried this phone out on the previous week at one of those Hello! shops to get a feel for it. It's not too bad actually was looking to get the iPhone but decided against it.

Was at the Samsung booth and was talking to the sales person about the phone and finally I decided to get it I asked him if I could trade in my current handphone while was a Nokia 6110. He said he will check. He came back an said that can trade in for a $130 rebate, but needed my charger if not I could always go to any shop later and submit that in for the rebate as he said they needed the charger for the rebate. So I stood in line and when I got to the payment counter the counter staff took my order, got me my phone she was very helpful to get all my numbers transferred to the SIM card and put it in the new phone. I asked again about rebate for my Nokia and she said yes will accept even without the charger, how much I asked was the rebate ? She checked with her supervisor who was beside her and he said $140 and I said ok take it. I don't know why there was a $10 difference strange. Anyways got me my new Omnia still trying to get used to the interface.

We had dinner with some relatives a couple of days later and I got to use my handphone's camera, we were at Sakae Sushi and boy did they have the biggest bowl of noodles that I have ever seen, The waiter said that it's called the Bowling Bowl as it was as big a a bowling ball. The missus's nephew had a noodle soup and it came in that huge bowl, actually it's more gigantic than huge.
