I've been using my Nokia E61i for almost 1.5 years now, or has it been two? Well, most of my friends who also bought Nokia E61i or Nokia E61 have upgraded their phones but I still haven't. Actually, I don't normally chase after new phone models but lately, I found that my battery is not as strong as it had been. I need two full charges daily now instead of one.

I am thinking that I shouldn't waste money on the battery and just upgrade my phone. After all, original batteries are not cheap so I might as well just trade in my phone or sell it off and top up to buy a new set.

I've set my eyes on brand new and unlocked blackberry phones. They are similar to my Nokia E61i and come with QWERTY keypads as well, which is what I prefer. Also, Blackberry certainly looks sleeker than Nokia ever could.

Maybe I should start counting my red packet collection even before Chinese New Year is over!
