[rant topic="Mobile Phone"]
When I try to send an SMS in a dodgy signal area (such as from my desk at work), it sometimes fails. Well that’s OK – no signal, no SMS, that’s kinda how it works. What isn’t OK is the way the stupid phone deals with a failed SMS. I’m no user-interface expert, but I would have thought a simple “Try again” option would be nice – instead I get a nice little message saying “send failed – message saved in drafts”, and I have to go and navigate through the silly phone’s menu systems to find my message and then try to send it again. It takes 10 clicks of the little joystick thing, rather than the one click a “Try again” option would need.

So, Sony Ericcson (yeah, I know you all read every single one of your customers’ blogs…) how about a nice little firmware patch, just for me? Please? Pretty please? Cos I really like not having a Nokia

(PS – as you’re reading, Mr Sony, can I have another little rubbery sticker thing? Mine’s come off)
(PPS – I’m slightly frightened by the sudden increase in popularity of the Hey Hey 16k song in that Yahoo vote… surely I don’t have THAT many readers? I reckon it’s down to Ant and Mike, myself)
Oh I am so with you on that. Its always a suprise when I notice one has not sent to find like 3 or more others in there silently nestling away.
Dear Sony – give me a visual / audible / vibrate alert when something has not sent as opposed to displaying a message for 2 seconds saying “shhhh, it hasnt gone but I will file it for you somewhere you never look” – Harumph.
Well done 16k btw fine work – against the odds and all that.
