3G Yo!

Yesterday, the kampung boys discovered something.
They discovered the wonders – and the somewhat overrated – 3G! That’d be me and Ryan. The we bit.

It took me days to sort out my 3G settings. And since I had not touch, upgrade or did anything to my SIM since I got it in 2001, I thought it would have to be upgraded. But thankfully not, and it works fine now.

Since I don’t have that many friends on 3G, I called the only I one I knew for sure has it.

Is it me or that when a video call connects, some cheesy 70s-trying-to-sound-futuristic type music will be played. Or is it just my phone?

Anyway, after not knowing what else to say or do – Ryan flashed his arse to Ian via the video call – we reminded Ian to do the backdoor. When the opportunity arises, “Do her ---!!!” we chanted.

Man, 3G is so much fun. But the audio quality is questionable. The video clarity is acceptable and the delay is of course – expected. All in all, I’d say it’s still in its early days. By 2008 or next would be sweet. Maybe we could be seeing holographic-star-wars-like communication by then.

How cool would that be?

Ryan thought it’d be sweet if, “Just imagine we could poke his stomach and watch it go ‘boing’,” he chuckles.
