Friday was quite boring, mostly spent in waiting for my Wireless and Landline+Internet phone. Fedex arrived with my Verizon at 2:30pm. I hadn’t known which phone my Uncle had sent, so I was excited about that too. I opened it to see a basic Nokia phone. The excitement of finally getting a phone to chat over the weekends covered up the disappointment over the phone device.
The Wirephone (ATT) was installed at around 4:00pm. Later that evening, I went to Walmart, and got myself a Uniden cordless phone for the landline for $9. Perfect.
Next day, I install the modem that I’d got a few days ago, only to find that I was getting horrible speeds of 224kbps’V’ and 128kbps^ . I call them up and I’m told that there is a restriction on the account for the first few days, during which the line is tested. The restriction was removed when I called ‘em up, and now I’m here writing using my fast internet connection.
Feel nice to have finally broken free from limits of prepaid phones, and data limits of CMA’s expensive internet access.
