iPaq MSN

iPaq with Windows Mobile 2003 running MSN Messenger

I’ve now joined the tribe of pointless-be-everywhere instant messenging. I only plan on using it when I’ve got 802.11 coverage, because I’m so not paying whatever GPRS rates are for it! Still, all good fun for a couple of days. Then I’ll be asking myself what possessed me to buy such a monstrosity. Ah well.

Addendum: Just checked the cost… apparently it’s $0.20c/minute. I’ve very rarely, if ever, had a conversation on MSN that good. Or at least, not so good that it couldn’t be supplanted by an even quicker/more effective phonecall.
