So sang Lene Lovich on this fab 1980s song written by my musical hero Tom Dolby.

And indeed I have — a bright shiny new Hiptop3, brand spanking new into the country!

They have been on back-order (around the world, as far as I am aware) for months. When they were first introduced into Oz they flew out the stores in a matter of weeks. A new shipment arrived on the weekend, pre-orderers like me were phoned today to be told “come and see it now or lose it because there are plenty of others in the queue after you!”

So I did come and see. Veni, vici, vidi. Well, purchased rather than conquered, but you get the idea.

Now I’m just charging the battery before using it and browsing and txting my lil’ heart out! $30 a month, up to 250 txts sent a day (blimey! not even excessive tweeting reach that limit!), unlimited browsing…

Fabulous!

“What’s in the clock?…It’s a little Toy Singer!”
sigh…I always admired Ms.Lovich, but I Loved Rachel Sweet. Usually I go for creators over performers, but Rachel had (has) such a powerful voice.
Guess I need to get back to “sending Semaphore Signals”.
Love & Peace, Clarence
