Mary Anne Tolention's Facebook, Nokia or iPhone?

Want to eavesdrop?

Copy of Mary Anne Tolentino's Facebook wall discussion on Nokia or iPhone...

Mary Anne Tolentino... someone told me Texting in iphone is quite challenging. I tested it a few days ago in the apple store, medyo hard nga....easier with N97. Ergo, I need to decide will it be N97 or Iphone 3GS? Of course iphone looks sexier :)

Suzanne Bowen... Mary Anne, Perry Ismangil said the Nokia series is easier to text and use Internet on than the iPhone. He's at http://perry.ismangil.com/. I use Nokia e61i, a little older than the 97. Enjoy, whatever you decide!

Eric Tiongson... If texting is that important, I'd suggest the N97. :-) I'm using an E71 and I can't imagine doing as much typing as I do on an iPhone.

Mary Anne Tolentino... voice calls, SMS, email very impt, internet sufing, FB of course, video, camera those are the impt stuff I use it for. Not music, mauubos battery agad. Another consideration is, can I get a spare battery at once? mpt for me. cant wait to have it charged before i use it again.

Eric Tiongson... iPhone's cannot have their battery replaced, so usability-wise N97 is looking good for you. :-)

Catch though is that if you don't get an iPhone from Globe now, you might not get one in the next 2 years. Whereas Nokia's can be purchased anytime anywhere.

Suzanne Bowen... This is an excellent discussion on cell phone choice, Mary Anne. Small favor? Can I copy this discussion to my blog? Can I leave your names in or do I give a pseudo name for each? The content is something people should read.

Friends become Business Partners and Vice Versa

Sometimes your friends become your customers, business partners or suppliers or vice versa. We think the world of VoIPSwitch as friends but also as inspiring innovators in IP telephony and IP communications. We met online through DIDX back in 2005, but we met Chris, Lukasz, Michel, Michael and more from VoipSwitch in person finally at ITEXPO East in Miami.



VoipSwitch and we met again at CommunicAsia 2009 in Singapore in February and had the most amazing time referring clients back and forth, helping entrepreneurs make their mash-up ideas a reality, and bringing on new global carriers to sell DID from new countries on DIDX!

Check out their video that explains how to leverage the wholesale DID marketplace on Youtube with DIDX's new API, and the great article that TMCnet editor Tim Gray edited on the DID/DDI channel.

So, what else are DIDX and VoipSwitch doing? Co-sponsoring a Lucky Strike Bowling Party during ITEXPO West 2009 in Los Angeles! ITEXPO West is a great conference for consumers, early adopters, carriers, voip companies, ip communications companies, ip pbx vendors, wireless operators and more. It's Sept 1-3. You can sign up for free expo passes, but even better get a conference pass which includes great educational sessions, breakfast, lunch, receptions and more close proximity to others who are serious business development and procurement. Sign up at http://www.itexpo.com.

Thank you, Phil and Steve

I have a wish. Can I blog and run in my sleep since it's tough to make the time during awake hours to do either? I'm not complaining, just wishing.

I truly enjoy my company, our team, our customers, our services, our partners, and our suppliers. I spend about 12 hours per day M - F and a few hours on Sat and Sun working. I'm complaining and I know it. ;-) But I really love what we do.

I've got a new responsibility, to look out for a friend who is suffering with Benign Positional Vertigo. I embrace that totally. It's tough, tougher for him, than me, but we can kick this down. Especially after getting a call from Phil Giordano yesterday whose had a huge new challenge thrown at him in life, and after I listened to him, thought, what a wimp you are, Suzanne. Thank you, Phil and Steve. Thank you.
