It's the day I've been dreading. Okay, maybe not THE day, but A day I've been dreading. The day one of my daughter's gets a cell phone. I've been contemplating getting her a one-way alpha pager for the express purpose of being able to receive quick messages from her parents. For example: "On the way to pick you up, make sure you have your baseball uniform on, tell your sister to get ready."
However, after much research, turns out it's a better deal to use one of my old cell phones with a prepaid phone card. T-mobile's prepaid cards have free incoming text messages. So, now Darby, at age 10 (gasp), has a cell phone. She has a few minutes for emergency use, and can receive unlimited text messages, which is helpful for me.
So while I was getting Darby a phone card, I broke down and got myself the phone I've been drooling over for a few months. It's very nice. But as a Windows Mobile phone, it will take some getting used to.
