Frustratingly, it takes 10 days for my T-mobile phone number to transfer to O2. I was really very anxious to try the MMS stuff, since I'd managed to set up a quick Moblog using pMachine. Without the MMS service, I can't really incorporate images. I spent rather a lot of time on the phone with T-mobile trying to get the service activated. It only just works. I can send a photo to myself and sometimes it works, other times it sends me a text message saying I'd have to see it online. Quite bizarre.

WAP doesn't work either, which is also frustrating. I've always liked WAP, despite the tales of doom and gloom and "it's already dead". And apparently I'm right. So nyah.

I think we all know that the mobile industry is a bit of a dog's breakfast when it comes to standards and protocols. It's certainly getting better, what with J2ME, MMS and yes, WAP.

But damn, why do manufacturers make their accessories so specific? This Gamepad and little car are due for release from Sony-Ericsson, but only for their new, top of the line, Z600.

Bastards. I'd be in there like a shot if it would fit on my new T610.
