Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Bah, I do this with my emails too (except it's not so much of a problem).
I realised the other day I hadn't deleted any txts for ages - a quick investigation showed I have 243 of the buggers, the earliest dated 28th Dec 2003! Also, my phone is shit so I can only delete them all, or one at a time - as I have a couple with some important info in this now means half an hour of "down, options, delete, yes; down, options, delete, yes...". Oh what fun.

Things like that should be controllable via a link to a PC.

My phone gets full after 10 messages.

I am so lucky!

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I don't think my phone can do 10. It's actually pretty annoying.

I have another phone which I can then can store 100-200, but the battery life is too shit to bother with.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I can store 60
I delete pointless ones as soon as I get them.
my phone is almost permanently on 90%+ full
I have messages dating back to september... on my old one I have ones dating back to 2001...
It's interesting reading through old messages.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I don't have a phone \o/

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I delete all messages upon receipt.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Losers like me who dont have any friends don't have this problem.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Mine stores 4 and that seems to be plenty

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

thats what YOUR MOM said too. :gollum:

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

She also said you've got the smallest dick she's ever seen

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

aye, that she did.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Mine has 30 available but I never receive any

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

i don't know how many messages fit on my phone but its a lot

[edit] ah methinks its alot, average msg is about 300 - 400 bytes and there on a 128mb memory card :confused:

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Mine has few mb free, can delete by selectin then deletin as many as I want at one time, oh and a usb link.

When you get one you plan on keeping save it in another folder? archive?

Then you can delete all of the "inbox" quite readilly when required to do so plus you can find that important info faster.

I can do this on my Nokia...

Telephones are meant for analog communication.
Use e-mail for your digital needs.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

If you ahve something valuable in a text message, WHY NOT MAKE A ****ING NOTE OF IT RETARD?

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

sentimental value, like keeping a letter from someone

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

in that case i will delete this number i have for you! :)

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Yeh... that number was from my ancient Swing200... it was so big, you needed a trolley to take it with you.
And it could only save 5 texts and only had capital letters.
Those bastards at KPN locked me off when I hadn't upgraded my credit for half a year. I never bothered getting a new phone.

Oh well... I guess I don't need to be "mobile". If someone wants to reach me they can call me at home or send me an e-mail.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I have the same problem, it's bloody annoying.

Well you can go "Delete All", but there are some texts I want to delete. So I periodically delete all of my Outbox - which saves every text I send, but my inbox gradually fills up and I have to spend 30 minutes or so clearing it out.

Big phones make us cool though, never forget that.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

I was shocked and alarmed when I received this message:

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Our love was to be secret :(

But oh no, giles has to go and let Echelon know.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

lol, it was actually saved as 'delphi'! what was that? round 4 or 5? lol

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

4 I think...

Mobile Phones Save The Day!

I think there's an opening in the Orange advert industry for you.

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

my mobile phone outbox has been used for this on more than one occation, to the point where when i upgraded my phone again this time i specified a phone that could handle a large number of message and saved outgoing sms :(
the ppl from orange laughed at me when i told them why though :(

Re: Why phones with lots of space are bad
 

Same here. If fact after every weekend I delete all my txt messages, and call logs and timers. It`s a good way of recounting what happened after a weekend, and not getting one weekend mix up with another :-)
