Howdy. I'm in Duncraig, WA.
I just got a P800.
I used to have a T68 with T68i software, but that's been passed on to my mum.
anyone know a good place to get a 128mb memory stick duo?
everywhere i have been sells it for too much. eg harvey norman sells a sandisc 128mb for $130. and a 64mb sony for $165!!!
the rrp for a 64mb sony is $75, and for a 128mb sony is $109.
I'm gonna look at megamart and sony central tomorrow.
If harvey norman still has their price match, i'll get them to order a 128mb sony in, and then i get it for the cheaper price, less 10% of the difference.
megamart does the same thing, but only 5% i think. and it depends if they even sell it.
sony central should have it, and it should be at rrp.
downtown duty free have it for $99.95 ex tax. so with gst it'll be $110.
if worst comes to worst, i'll get it from there.
they are just so damn hard to find
i don't want to order off ebay, coz then i still have to pay postage, and i'd rather pay a little extra and get one from perth.
i'm not in a big rush, but i would like to have one in 2 or 3 weeks at most. |

You can get them from Harris Technology, In WA they have a store in Osborne Park, they sell the 128MB MS Duo for $107, you can also order online with them if thats too far away from you.

Hello, I'm an irish man but living in sydney.
Just bought a T610 last week, am going to get it flashed to get rid of all that nasty vodafone stuff.
Just happen to work for optus and there is a service center in the building so hopefully one of the technicians in there will flash it for me. |

Was so close to getting the p800 from telstra with the same technique, but i was just short 5 points to be approved, I headed home to get my copy of my birthcert but when i cam back there was a different guy working and he informed me that due to my visa expiry date i could not get it. Bugger.
The other guy did not mind about the exp date.
So I went and bought a T610 from vodafone which i cannot get unbranded now. |

question for masseur - somewhere on this site I found a post from you on how to alter the delay period before the call gets passed to voice mail. I've tried the code;
**61*07973100123*11*30# - where 30=the delay period in seconds, 5 to 30 increments in 5.
it 'accesses the network' then returns a command error - any clues?
Thanks mate

to be honest I have never tried it myself but the number after **61* doesn't look like an aussie number (looks like a philipines number actually) and I recall the number there should be a mailbox number of some kind for yourself and the post you are referring to gave some info on how to get the number that should be used there.
remind me where that post is (saves me searching) and I'll give it a go

Sorry Masseur you didn't post it at all. Here's the post;
_____________________________________________
1. To hide your number before you call someone just press; #31# 2. to change the delay time before your phones answer machine kicks in press; d**61*07973100123*11*30# the last two digits between the * and the # symbol can be altered from 5 seconds upto 30 seconds only, the above example is set for the maxium delay of 30 seconds, the default setting is 15 second, so depending on how quick you want your answerphone to kick in enter 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30. unless i am very much mistaken.

I think I can be forgiven for thinking it was one of yours - look how he signed off - so either he's pinched your tag line or he's Murray Walker returned.
Anyway I'm in at Telstra Mobile tomorrow talking about their Java delivery platform so I'll ask them. If there's anything you'd like me to find out .......

 yeah I see what you mean
btw, here is another thread that describes the process. I just tried it on my UK vodafone service and it worked fine but I got the message "network problem" doing the *#104# command using my telstra sim card. I am in Germany so it could be something to do with that but if you know the number you have to dial to get to your voicemail box (not the short code) then thats is probably what you need
in regards to your telstra visit, perhaps you can get an answer for baz in this thread

well, I would suggest some of the following.
a dinner cruise on the harbour.
a meal up either centre point or australia square. Centre point is higher but Australia square is closer to the bridge. They are both rotating restaurants btw
I would also suggest a bridge climb. its not in the least bit scary or requiring particularly much energy, and you are hooked onto a rail on the bridge for the whole duration. I did it when it opened and it was fantastic
cocktail in a bar at darling harbour which overlooks darling harbour. unfortunately I cannot remember the name of it but it upstairs in the middle
if you like seafood you shouldn't miss Jordans at darling harbour. its not cheap but fantastic food
a quick once around on the mono rail
I haven't been to any night clubs in central sydney for many years so can't suggest much in that direction
obviously you can take a trip out of town to the blue mountains/katoomba or jenolan caves (or both)
thats what comes to mind right away. I'll add more as I think about it
and forget about the bl**dy spiders
