There are a few firmware updates available for my Sony Ericsson K750i, but as I don't have a Winblows installation lying around, no update made it onto the phone. Such is life in the Microsoft dominated world. Time for the revolt, I'd say.

However, there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. Turning off the phone and turning it on again seems to allow a new Bluetooth connection to be made to it from my Powerbook. This allows me to get the photo's off the phone and upload the lot to flickr. It also allows me to sync my calendar and contacts to the phone. Sweetness.

After trying a few times, it still seems as if my Powerbook will not connect to my phone after the initial setup connection. Each time I pair the two devices, I am able to connect via e.g. BluetoothFileExchange. iSync works then in 50% of the cases. After the first disconnect, my Powerbook claims it cannot validate the phone anymore and refuses to connect to it. Needless to say that this is annoying me immensely.

This is it. Is finally succumbed to the mobile phone infection. I guess Poliel is not kind. It was, in the end, a pretty hard decision. I had narrowed the choices down to either the Nokia 6230i, or the Sony Ericsson K750i. I finally decided on the Ericsson, despite my dislike for Sony since their recent DRM fuck-up. The reason I went with them is my hapiness with my Sony Cybershot, and the fact that some relatives are having issues with their Nokia batteries. The phone came with a 64MB memory card - usable in my Cybershot as well, I assume, a headset, USB-cable, and power adaptor.
