Ouch. Man, that's tough. Let us know how it goes. Despite not really wanting to have a keitai, I am the owner of one nevertheless. And since I own it and pay for it, I use it. I am sure it is rotting my brain, though. So far I have resisted the temptation to moblog. Well, at least, if they don't give you your service back, you can think of it as anti-moblogging therapy. I am sure the ol' moblog gets a bit addictive. ;-)

Oh, I misunderstood the meaning "dead in the water". I assumed that you dropped your keitai into the bathtub or toilet! Now I understand your situation. Sore ha taihen desu ne. Demo Andrew ga iuyouni, "keitai chudoku" kara tachinaoru yoi kikai kamo shirenaiyo!

While we're (loosely) on the topic of cheap stuff. I wanted to know if you know good places for used items. I have a few CDs I might be wanting to pick up and a couple volumes of manga in addition to whatever else I am tasked to get for people while I'm there. I remember hearing that certain types of items cannot be sold as "used" such as video games, but I've also heard that you can get CDs for cheap at used CD places. So I was wondering if you might have any insight into this topic.

Yea I've never seen used games actually, nor rental games even. But I know plenty of used CD shops and CD rental shops (I think Yatsuya is the most famous) Plus I have a cd burner ;)
