It's a sad Day

As the title says . . . . .

It's a Sad Day . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . When you come home from the mobile phone shop. . . . having being invited there because you were due an up-grade on yer phone.
The very pleasant young lady got a range of equipment out for our perusal (I say our - we were both due an up-grade) . . . spent ages (h)explaining them.

We plumbed for the Galaxy Ace (one each) . . . being our first foray into smart phones.

All is well . . . . we're learning . . . . like a Fisher Price kindergarten . . . I wonder what happens if I push this button ?

So . . . Why a sad day ?

There are now three things in the house smarter than me a wife and two androids

if it is anything like my HTC OneX then it will gobble up your data allowance for breakfast and then some...not good. Used it for a few days whilst in Brixham,Devon...goodbye data. Am almost up to my limit and still got another 4 days before it resets !

That's it in a nutshell.

We didn't notice that two of our company phones didn't have the unlimited data bolt on as specified.
I was OK since I knew how to kill running apps, but one of the other field maintenance lads never spotted it.
We only realised the mistake when a monthly bill came through for for his mobile that was several hundred quid more than anyone else in the company.

yeah, our software director went over to the US for 2 weeks and thought it a good idea to use his phone as a sat nav...762 pounds later LOL
