T-Mobile Saves the Night

Keeping in touch is an addiction and I got it. It is quite obvious on press trips that I am not alone. True the last toast at the dinner table is still a part of the trip, but it last far shorter than before. Everyone is on a lappy checking his or her e’s. Those without their laptops are lined up at the hotel’s business center.

I’ve taken the addiction one step further, a Sidekick Two, from T-Mobile. The only downside is that Paris Hilton used the same phone. Still the girl is busy and is always in touch. Just read Page Six of the NY Post! Cargo Magazine did a piece on the different phones and services that can keep you in contact virtually from anywhere. With my GSM phone I can virtually call Max or home from anywhere, but watch the minutes they are extra. Still according to the article T-Mobile offers the cheapest permanent minutes of all the carriers. It also can be used for data services like text messaging, Web and e-mail. Handy if I ever need to see Paris’s latest web cast. Better yet I can be in the hotel lounge or nearest hot spot doing my job, checking things out. At my age I hardly think Paris and I will be checking out each other!
