New Mobile Phone — Sony Ericsson W300i

Sunday · 15 Oct 06 · 08:00 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

I bought a new cellphone today!  This is the Sony Ericsson W300i, which is one of the phones in Sony's Walkman range.  Apart from the phone's design, I really like the fact that it has a 256 MB memory card, so I've stored a number of songs on it; for listening during long bus rides to and back from office.  A few score MIDIs were also uploaded on to it — the entire Doom and Doom II soundtracks, a few select Tolwyn/Klem tunes and other game songs, and some general ones.  The current ringtone I've set is a track from Requiem by Mark Klem.  I transferred everything from my computer using Bluetooth — that's much simpler instead of messing about with the USB connector (more software to install).  The phone's inbuilt speaker is quite good, and is actually pretty OK for listening to music.  Yet to try out the headphones though, and I've heard that the quality is excellent.  The camera is quite decent as well.  For a more detailed review of the phone, you can have a look at this page on Mobile-Review.com.

In other news, I've been involved heavily in recruitments on Friday and Saturday.  Friday was spent at Vel Tech Engineering College, where we had conducted an online test, for screening the hundreds of students who had applied to the company.  After this, I watched Lage Raho Munnabhai in the theatre, which I enjoyed.  Yesterday we had a recruitment drive as well, and I was exhausted after being on a panel for 15 interviews.  Anyway, last night I watched the most excellent Hard Candy, and today, I plan to watch The Skeleton Key.
