MrRTFM's Journal: I finally got a mobile phone

Last time I had one was in 2000, and since I've been in the one job i havent wanted/needed one.

Until now - the Nokia 6610 was on special for $249 AU (outright - no plans), so I got it.

Its pretty small but nice to use, and has:
- WAP browsing
- send emails
- Calendar, contacts, todo
- IR sync to PC
- FM Radio
- Java apps and games

plus all the phone stuff (which I hardly use)

Overall, I'm pretty happy - I would have like full email and web browsing, but I cant afford it here in ($1200 AU) and/or $79/month plan.

Now, my question is - why has no one built a java app that turns a IR port on a phone into a TV remote control?
