I hate my LG Viewty

Jul 6, 2009 Author Nik

I’m nearing the end of the 18-month O2 contract I took out with my Viewty. With new technology reaching obsolescence after only a short life, why post about something that is so old?

Because when the Viewty first came out, people seemed to be falling over each other trying to be the first to review the phone. They hadn’t used it in anger. And boy, this phone makes me angry. When people ask me “is it a good phone?”, I struggle not to begin ranting. It is still widely available, so if I cause just one person to stop and reconsider the purchase of a Viewty, I will consider this post to be worthwhile.

The technical details, pictures, and many reviews of people singing the Viewty’s praises are everywhere. Just google it. I’m going to skip all of that rubbish, and tell you why you should have stuck with Sony Ericsson.

Teething trouble

Dec 4, 2007 Author Nik

Oliver has started losing his teeth. In fact, he’s been teething for a while now, though you probably wouldn’t realise without being told; even teething, he still chews stuff a lot less than other Labradors do any other time.

Today I found a tooth under his bed. Judging by the dried blood on it, it had been there quite a while, so he won’t miss out on any money from the tooth fairy. I’m not even sure the tooth fairy does business with dogs.

Anyway, it surprised me because it’s a tooth from the back of his mouth–a wide tooth with a flat, triangular surface–but it’s the only tooth I’ve seen lying around. Surely, a tooth in the back of his mouth is more likely to be swallowed than any of his front teeth? But apparently not. He now has adult teeth right at the front of his mouth, but he seems to have swallowed them. Or deliberately eaten them.

Just waiting for him to get his grown-up canines now, to replace the one that I broke for him…
