Did I all tell you I had a TV delivered yesterday?
It was the wrong one, I ordered 40inch full HD TV, I got delivered a 32 inch 720p Tv. Fucking jokers.

Hahaha, I reckon with all the hassle you've been put through, you'd have been better off just buying a telly properly.

Two phone calls and 3 emails is pretty much worth a 40inch TV if you ask me.

nice, which version?
I'm intreged as these deals always seem to good to be true

They're the basic versions non smart TV only 2 HDMI sort of things.
Still they're pretty good.
Have a look here. www.moneysupermarket.com/mobile-phones/gifts/
They're shit companies but they are still legitmate companies so they're not lying about the deals they'll just fuck them up.

Oh and I'm saying they should give me a 43 inch 3D plasma tv now to make up for my heartache.

Good luck with that

(, Tue 19 Mar 2013, 12:24, Reply)
Their terms and conditions say that if they can't provide what was ordered they'll send a equivilent or better.
They've stopped doing the 40 inch, and the next one up they do is a 43inch.

Bigger isnt always better
they could claim that the smaller screen size has greater feature/ connectivity etc,
(, Tue 19 Mar 2013, 12:27, Reply)
They couldn't claim a smaller 720p is an upgrade of a full HD TV
anyway their T&C's also said they'd contact me to discuss a replacement before sending it out, which they didn't.
(, Tue 19 Mar 2013, 12:28, Reply)
Still though, good luck with that.

Oh they could
they would be wrong of course but they could still claim.

He'd only be able to do texts and calls really...
... it's the phone equivolent of using IE6. They'll be very few websites that would run properly on it.

And I don't buy into that "I only use it for calls and texts" thing, he won't be able to get good bumhole pictures of his misses on it either.

I'll just change browsers
and gmail will still be supported for all the bumhole needs.
(, Tue 19 Mar 2013, 12:53, Reply)
The browsers won't run properly and the screen resolution is so shit that you won't be able to make out the little beads of sweat.

(, Tue 19 Mar 2013, 12:55, Reply)
Of course they will.
2.3 is on millions of phones around the world and it'll keep being on them in China, India, Africa as more budget smartphones and feature phones come out. As much as the top end of the phone market makes the money that is getting saturated. The real growth is in affordable phones in the developing world.
Hey the richest man in the world is a mexican telecoms person. They'll keep this stuff running so they can run android on the cheapest chips available so they can sell them all over the world.

You're fooling yourself, even the emerging-market's phones are more powerful.
Take a look at the lowest range nokias, for example.
