OK, so, I want another SonyEricsson (I like the interface, and my K700i lasted 2.5 years--felled only by carelessness.) I want a good camera, Bluetooth, triband, some way of accessing the internet with my laptop (do I need WiFi or what? I would 't mind 3G so I could do better than 9600K... not that I'm stupid enough to use the net from my phone often but it can come in handy). I don't need a music player, which seems to be heavily pushed on all the better SE ones.

Ah well. Need to sort out the best way of getting new phone too... go to PAYG or pay upgrade. I don't want to get locked in to another 18 months. (And since Neil's on Orange, I'm not switching operators!)

Santorum is GONE! (Hardly a Casey lover, but Santorum was one of those guys who inspired an "anyone else, PLEASE!" reaction.)

(Sorry, Lincoln Chafee. You seemed nice enough. But you stuck with a lousy party, and you knew that eventually Rhode Island would give up on the national GOP. It's pure personality keeping them in in Maine.)

So far, Dems held NJ (voters forgave ethical lapses rather than go red), took Ohio. Held New York as expected. Spitzer is governor by a landslide. You took on Wall Street--can you conquer Albany? (ha ha ha ha ha, New York defines dysfunctional state government).

Oh, and Vermont has elected its first independent socialist senator, Bernie Sanders. :) (Taking over from Jim Jeffords.) He counts as a Democrat, basically. His House seat is expected to stay blue. Ah, Vermont, you bunch of tree hugging hippies!
