I plan to get my new MetroPCS phone in three days. I have the $100.00 Boost Mobile phone, that I got last month, that I will sell. I have had it one month. It cost $100.00 I will sell it for $50.00 and $5.00 shipping and I will ship it right away as soon as you pay via PayPal. You can check my eBay reviews (user HNBBS) and you will see they all have been 100% happy with my sales. If you are interested in the MetroPCS phone eMail me:

Tell you what…any one that reads the blog that wants it can get it $50.00 and I will pay the shipping. If none of you are interested I will post it on eBay in a few days.
I been using IE and Chrome with Windows 7 RC. I decided to see if Firefox would work with it. I downloaded the Minefield version (version 3.6a1pre). It works and it works great with Windows 7 RC. My guess is that the normal Firefox release of 3.5 will work for you. Let me update you on Windows 7 RC. It is excellent and I am not having any problems. Everything seems to run on it. I will be buying it and you know I have cussed Windows here for years. It looks like they got it right this time and it is about time.
You may remember that I was telling you about the loud sounds from my CPU fan. It was so loud that it hurt my hears and I shut down the computer from time to time. I fixed the problem. I had opened up the computer a few times and messed with the fans and the CPU fan and nothing would help. I laid the computer on the side so that gravity would help hold the fan on top of the CPU and it fixed the problem.
I can not wait until tomorrow. I plan to go get a Samsung Finesse from MetroPCS. I hope I do not chicken out. That is a lot of money for me to spend ($350.00). If I get it you will know because I will take some photos with the Finesse and make a video with the cell phone just to see what they look like. I will also try posting direct to ShowMeBlog and Howard’s Notebook using the cell phone. I hate to spend even one more dollar tomorrow but I am going to want a MicroSD card for the phone. I just checked and it does not look like Radio Shack has a sale on anything I can afford. They do have a 16GB MicroSDHC card. It is $59.99 (normal price of $119.99) but that is more memory that I need and I am not sure the Finesse will support 16GB. My guess is about 8 GB. I am looking forward to tomorrow.
