Some of you may remember my first cell phone, the Treo 600. After a mishap on the Metro I bought a $17 EBay phone as a replacement. The phone served me well, but it was time to move on....to the Treo 650! Email, bluetooth (ie, wireless communication with the D4t4Mobile), palm software (including directory assistance), SMS, and AIM are all neatly packaged into a phone that fits (mostly) in the palm of my hand.
Today's WP had a front-page story on personalizing ring tones, which, coincidentally, I've been actively engaging in for the past two days. A person mentioned in the article had to pay $2 per tone--not so with my new Treo. I can play any midi file, and the Internet offers thousands (millions?) for free. Thus, if you want a personalized ringtone when you call, find an appropriate midi and email it to me. I've already assigned "Harry Potter" to Chicklet, "X-Files" to Seth, and "Deep In The Heart Of Texas" to Rachel.
Grad school application status: all recommendations in the field, still waiting for GRE writing scores.
