1338792 2013-04-29 07:32:00 Now that we have that out of the way, what on earth were you doing?! Peeing, winky in one hand, N4 in the other?!

Like we suspected you of doing at the last meeting? :p

1338793 2013-04-29 08:40:00 Hey I was sitting down. You must always keep two hands on the N4, or otherwise silly things might happen... Like it slipping into the loo :p Chilling_Silence (9)
1338794 2013-04-30 02:16:00 :eek:
Have you tried drying it out? Do you have a house contents insurance policy?

Unfortunately no to the insurance and of course to drying it out - I've even taken it to one of those dodgey phone places for inspection but the motherboard is coroded? (been damaged from corotion I'm guessing but spelling?)


Bahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha

Well you know it can access the internet and I was feeling slighty... JOKES - yes peeing, winky in one hand, N4 in the other!

Seeing as I have your attention in regards to this matter mate, any chance that ordering you've done for us had a warrenty come with? If not what do you think of just jumping to 2degrees $89.00 plan to get the N4 free?

perhaps someone forgot which hand the TP was actually in :o

I never will understand reading (or txting) while on throne, its the 1 room I dont want to stay any longer than needed.
Receiving a ph call from someone in that room is just so wrong.

1338796 2013-04-30 02:31:00 I was having a play with a N4 the other day, and didnt think it was slippery the edge on it gives very good grip..??

Or do you have slippery hands

1338798 2013-04-30 03:52:00 Hell no I wouldn't jump on 2 Degrees given the chance again... I %@#$ hate them with a passion.

Example: Wife and I will be at Orewa beach. I'll go to share a *single* photo to G+, she'll share 10 photos to Facebook (Competing social networks, adds flavour to the marriage).
Mine will take anywhere up to 20 minutes to share one single photo on 2 Degrees
She'll share 10 of them in 2-3 mins to Facebook, on Telecoms XT network.

Same for hacking portals, in Henderson. I've got a total dead spot where it'll literally take me up to 5 minutes to properly hack an Ingress portal. Brother on XT has *zero* issues. Identical model phone as I'm sure you're aware.

So no, I wouldn't sign up with 2 Degrees, you're *way* better off just throwing it on your Credit Card or something and picking one up from The Warehouse or Noel Leeming or something if you're in a hurry...

I think it could have been for the fact that it's a non-openable case - water goes in - water doesn't come - out sort of situation.

It's got a red light when I plug it into the charger which I thought gave me hope - but does nothing from there. I might look into REALLY (couple of days) drying it before I try it again.

1338800 2013-04-30 05:17:00 Warehouse Stationary do a "Price beat" thing too, keep that in mind! I think they'll do them down around $620? Keep an eye on TradeMe for good deals too... Like this: www.trademe.co.nz Chilling_Silence (9)
1338801 2013-04-30 05:32:00 Cool cheers dude. By the looks of it Noel Leeming do $699.00 so I'll get a quote from them and take it to the Warehouse Stationery and get them to drop their same price of $699.00 haha. lordnoddy (3645)
