so, very very sad.

i researched into the whole GSM and ATTWS and the sim card, and found out that i cannot just get an unlocked GSM phone, i need to make sure that the phones run on 800/1900 since apparently ATTWS is focusing on the 850 right now. and of course, the phones that i like (the sony ericsson z200 and motorola v690) are NOT on the 850 one (they have 1900 but i dont think itd be enough) so i have been reduced to a motorola v400, which is not worth the price if bought without signing on to a new plan. the other option i have right now is the nokia 7200, which hasnt been tested in this country yet, so the price is over 400$ and the worthiness is in the dark. therefore, i have been reduced to not getting a cell phone until either i convince myself that it is worth paying $200+ for that v400, or just wait until the nokia 7200 has been tested on this side of the world. looks like i am stuck with my absolutely crappy siemens c56 (i hate this phone so much -- you have NO Idea!)

but watever. i suppose i can now save more money to buy that new computer that i need, which is another huge investment, but am unsure when i will be committing to that. at this moment in time, i need a new AC. its so HOT in the apartment, that one lousy inbuilt AC is not enough to cool down two very hot and horny mammals .. heheh =)
