Not much new on the scene, but the phone is still working fine
I haven't really been checking on what's new regarding the E650. I've just been jogged a little by a comment on this blog. The phone is still fine and in good working order. I am using the internet on it from time to time, but honestly I'm never too far from a computer and browsing on a phone is the pits.

My only complaint is that the little rubberised tab covering the USB charger socket keeps on popping out. I'm tempted to just pull it off.

My HTC case arrived. See this post for details. It didn't take 15 days like promised, it was more like 4 months. I had almost forgotten that I had asked for one. It is good though and it does the job well keeping the phone safe and clean.




I did have an issue with Orange, my operator. I had taken out a data package, then realised that it would be gone in two days. I upgraded to the expensive 20MB/month plan only to discover that I used 22MB in my first month. This seemed to be eaten up by emails alone.
I had set my phone to check my Gmail account too often (a few times per hour) and the data consumed just checking the account was quite a bit. I now check the account a couple of times a day and my data usage is less than 5MB per month.
