I’m saying goodbye to “old faithful”… my Nokia 6680. It has served me well. Goodbye, old friend.

Meanwhile, I say hello to a new associate – my new Nokia N77. The phone, my official office service unit, arrived last Friday from SMART and that (along with Rica Peralejo coming to visit us) completed my week.

I really had a tough time deciding which unit to choose (from the Smart Gold packages). At first it was a toss-up between the N81 8GB and N95 8GB. Being a gamer myself, I was inclined with getting the N81. After reading some minor glitches about the N95, I already wrote down the n81 at my application form – until Chino, RF Online Game Manager, showed me his N77 and I got to compare it with another officemates’ N95.

It’s the myTV that got me hooked!

I narrowed my choices to the following pros and cons between the 3 phones

N81

• Good for music and multimedia
• Great for games
• Camera was fine but not fantastic
• Big memory 
• NO TV!!! Amp!

N95

• Perfect for “pogi points”
• Nice PDA functions
• Fantastic camera and video
• Big memory
• Bulky
• NO TV!!! Amp!

N77

• It has TV!!!
• Nice speakers
• Light
• Not too bulky
• It can do (almost) anything that the above two can do

It’s obvious. The TV feature got me. Imagine all the things I can while travelling or on a long commute. Or how about waiting in line at the bank? Boob tube is the best entertainment ever. My phone has cable channels! I kid the not!
