Revisions for Mobile Upgrade - Nokia 2310 to Nokia 7230

m0rnin all,

Finally upgraded my ph0ne. Was using a Nokia 2310 http://www.nokia.com.au/find-products/all-phones/nokia-2310

Am n0w running this, relatively advanced Nokia 7230 http://www.nokia.com.au/find-products/all-phones/nokia-7230/specifications

Biggest c0mplaint pr0bably w0uld be RECEPTI0N. I decided t0 stick with V0dkaf0ne, better the z0mbeh c0rp0rati0n 0f death y0u are already familiar with I say (Optus recently screwed me 0ver in regards to a sim card I didn’t activate in time, strike them fr0m my list. Telstra & me have n0t mixed since I was 11 years 0ld.)

2G recepti0n in my area is better then 3G recepti0n with v0daf0ne h0wever, pr0bably why I’ve seen pe0ple carrying ar0und tw0 ph0nes m0st 0f the time, great f0r the ph0ne c0mpanies hahhaha. I’ll have t0 keep the 0ld 2G ph0ne recharged 0nce a year t0 keep that acc0unt & number alive.

I find s0me pe0ple have had issues with Nokia in the past ( typically, pe0ple wh0 bash their ph0ne when it d0esnt w0rk, thr0w it acr0ss the r00m when it d0esn’t w0rk..ect..), but my experience with the last 4 phones that I have had, all being Nokia, I have few little c0mplaints.

The 7230 supp0rts s0me level 0f Java Applicati0ns (J2MC i thiink?). Already g0ne ab0ut adding in a few extra things here and there, games, ect.
I put on this http://sourceforge.net/projects/jmirc/ and was quickly and easily able t0 access the Teams IRC. Awes0me. Als0 the Opera Mini already 0n the ph0ne gets 0nt0 plenty 0f websites with en0ugh ease. I can check the still Radar images from the Bureau of Meteorology http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR713.shtml , s0 I can see if any ph0ne killing rain is 0n the way while I am 0ut and ab0ut.
Easily ab0ut t0 access the teams site t00. Much fun. =p

s0 as this level 0f ph0ne techn0l0gy f0r many 0f y0u may seem insignificant, it is a huge leap f0rward f0r me. 0fc0urse I w0uld always find myself, 0nce having the chance t0 get used t0 this ph0ne, wanting it t0 be able t0 d0 m0re, but f0r n0w, I am rather satisfied.

Als0, the inbuilt maps are rather nice t00. Sh0uld be able t0 buy a GPS Bluet00th receiver t0 c0nnect t0 the ph0ne t0 give a current l0cati0n 0n the maps. Rather nice indeedy.

g0ing t0 give the tedi0us, maybe imp0ssible task (f0r my ph0ne m0del anyway), 0f having my 0wn h0me internet w0rking 0n my ph0ne via the bluet00th.

One final thing really, Nokia PC Suite.. Nice.. Made it a heck of al0t less hassle t0 just type in the c0ntacts and details fr0m my 0ld ph0ne 0n the c0mputer, and have that transmit/sync t0 the new ph0ne. Can als0 read and resp0sed t0 all my SMS this way. Fun. =p
