BT TOGO ANYWHERE

By Sophie Locke on Dec 24, 08 03:36 PM


I have received a BT TOGO ANYWHERE, this is fantastic.

This phone enables me to email and use the internet at home when I am in my bedroom or when I am out and about with my friends. There is unlimited downloads at broadband speed with WiFi inside and outside my home. I am also happy about the 10mb download allowance. I get 50 minutes calls,and 50 free texts any network any time which will be good when I am contacting home and my friends. I am also pleased that there is a built in mp3 player which I have always wanted.

I will be taking this BT TOGO ANYWHERE on holiday skiing in February so I can email home and send my family pictures of me skiing.

The good thing is I can sit in my bed on MSN on this phone instead of having to sit at a computer talking to my friends. For a small phone it offers so much I am really going to enjoy using it.

FREE INTERNET USE

By Julie Locke on Dec 22, 08 02:17 PM


We had a great morning in Birmingham City Centre today.

Myself Sophie and Kieran were out and about testing out Sophies mobile phone and Kierans Sony PSP. We logged onto the Birmingham Fiz which is a free internet information zone around Birmingham while we were actually out and about walking around Birmingham.

Kieran looked up whats on at the cinema and Sophie looked up shopping so we set off in the direction of the Bull Ring to do some shopping. We were lucky to be there while the German Market was in full swing and Sophie and Kieran ordered themselves chocolate doughnuts which were very sweet but nice.

Sophie looked up on the Birmingham Fiz site, information I needed to find out about the Birmingham Art Gallery, Sophie also used the web site to look to see if there would be snow for Christmas Day (sadly no snow).

When we won this competition to be part of Birmingham's Digital Family as a family we were unaware of what is actually on offer around Birmingham for free. We did not know that there were free internet zones such as the Birmingham Fiz available. The good thing about these free information zones you can use the sites while on the move without having to stay in one place.

Sophie would like a new pay as you go mobile for christmas and with the free internet zones available around Birmingham City Centre, Sophie does not have to worry about using up all her credit on internet use.

It was a fun morning and we had fun testing out the mobile and PSP while out and about around Birmingham and we will definitely use this free service that is available for internet users again.
