new cellphones

Amanda and I got new cellphones the other day as well. Her’s finally crapped out way early one morning while she was answering a page, so we went downtown the next day to get new ones. We stayed with Verizon. While I like their network and their service in general, they do not have a great selection of phones and they lock them down with their own UI and firmware so that you can’t do anything with them. I have to see if there is an easy way to hack my phone now that I have a new one.
It took a long time to get the phones, activate them, do all the paper/computer work, blah blah blah, but I expected that. We drove downtown to save time, but we foolishly decided to try parking in the Westlake Center as that is where the closest Verizon place is. That was a mistake as we then coughed up $9 for parking.
I forgot to get some pictures off my old phone before the new one was activated, and now I don’t think there is an easy way to do so. Unfortunate, as there was a picture of Christy at her birthday party that I wanted to keep. Ah, well.
