Why I'm not on T-Mobile Signal more...

[chokaay]

In case anyone is wondering why I'm not posting as much as I used to on T-Mobile Signal, my laptop's LCD went out last week, and I'm waiting for a replacement part to arrive so I can "attempt" to fix it. Currently my laptop is on a table in about 15 different pieces (not counting the screws), so I can't be online as much as I was before. Once the part arrives, hopefully the "operation" will be a success (haven't really done this before on a laptop, so we'll see). Otherwise I'll be ordering a new computer and won't be on TMS until THAT gets here and gets set up... :(

oops!
sorry to hear that
I think you're still possible to come through your phone (wap version, or regular if your phone is "powerful" like my K790)

Come back soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was you who brought me here, i'm but your padawan learner!

working on a laptop is not any different than working on a desktop... it's just a much smaller form factor. hopefully all you need is a part swap.

and yes, you can still post on here via your phone... just use the wap site: http://www.t-mobilesignal.com/mobile

Yes, that is true, but it's a PAIN going through either WAP or Opera Mini on my V3 no matter HOW fast a site is... especially since RAZR V3's don't have EDGE, only GPRS.

Plus, even when I do visit, I really don't post unless I "have to" via phone, since it's painfully slow for me if I don't have a QWERTY keyboard.

That would be something I would enjoy doing, as long as it's not my laptop that is, lol. I love tinkering with and fixing computers. :)

I'm gonna guess it's not a ThinkPad...they're a breeze to work with. LCD swap is one of the most time intensive jobs (next to a complete disassembly). Just make sure you take note of where the screws go.

you should try sonyericsson phone
the t9 is alot better, you can make a combo if t9 can't make a single words
e.g. you can key 7669(press right on d-pad)37427766 to make sonyericsson

no matter how bad feedback on Dell, I am happy with Inspiron 6000d, and it's still strong after 2 years (just the DVD recorder died, and I had to upgrade anyway)

[chokaay]

I'm happy to report the "operation" was a success (no leftover screws or anything... YAY!). :D

And yeah, it was a Dell. I've actually been happy with Dell for the most part. I still have an extremely old Inspiron 7000 that works just fine (needed a motherboard swap and hard drive swap in the past, but all under warranty). This was my second laptop, a Latitude C640, that needed the "surgery" (never needed any replacements before).

At any rate, I may keep my eyes open for a good deal on a 3rd laptop... just in case... ;)
