Mudchat Killed My Phone!!!

(kinda)

I've posted a few times about my LGCookie.
On the one hand, it's tiny, it's touchscreen, and it's great.

On the other hand, it plays Java like cack, it's got 10001 gaming issues, and the camera's next to pointless.

Yesterday, I tried Mudchat on the phone.
I wasn't worried.
I should've been!!!

All that constant internet connection started to warm up the phone a little.
Hmm.. I'd heard about the cookie getting warm, but this was the first I'd experienced it.
..
..
And warmer..

I continued to vaguely chat to DD for another 5 mins or so.

POP
..

....

My phone rebooted, but I wasn't going to try THAT again!

Skip to this morning, when checking my email gave me another little pop, and the phone's been refusing to reboot since.

It's at this point that I'm at a slight dilemma.
Do I send the phone back, under it's warrenty. Get the replacement?
Or do I just say f'k that, and move on.
The phone's neat, but it's not the best.

I'm tempted to just move on.

The thing is, you were using it to do one of the things it was designed for, access to the internet.

I think that LG should re-call them because that is a design fault.

If I were you, I would tell them to.....

I'm complaining my arse off, don't you worry.

I had a hunt for a new phone.
I was dead against getting a new LG but inevitably, I got another LG.
Silly me, but hey, what can you do! They're nice phones!

Ordered new phone (Viewty, due here tomorrow)
Emailing LG in a jiffy, and meanwhile I took today off from doing everything, and instead went into town where I bought a nice new 60-year Scrabble special edition board game.
Luvly stuff, and enough to stop me ranting and raving.

FFS, they didn't put any pencils or paper in the god damned f'ing Scrabble box!!
WTF?!?!
£30 f'ing quid, and no f'ing pencils?
BAAAH!!!
Cheap f'ers!!

LG and Mattel had better have their special Anti-Yell headphones on!!!
