My 8850 recently conked out. I don't know why.

And my 6250 is getting behind the times features-wise. Although I have to admire its strength and durability despite of what I had put through.

I didn't have to think much in choosing my next phone. Dahil idol ko si afrasay, I got one of these:


It's a Siemens M65 with an open-line.

I got it from Wellcom in SM City.

They will also throw in a free Siemens C62:


Other free stuff:
*Headset for the M65
*Car adaptor for the M65
*Wellcom wristwatch
*Wellcom wallet
*Wellcom flashlight (no batteries required)
*Wellcom dicount card to various establishments
*A SUN sim

All these for a little less than Php 20K. The phones are warranted for two years. I think the deal was fair enough. I hope the M65 will serve me as well as my 6250 has (and still is since may simcard pa ding nakalagay sa kanya).
