thanks billy. I had found that link but it says "if it is charged it will start up when you put the sim in"... but it hasn't!

surely there's an on/off key.

or maybe I'm impatient and it's not fully charged, but it's been charging for a couple of hours :o(

[No,Knowledge]

tell it that it's the sexiest phone you have ever seen.

[sara3]

you're just rude

[No,Knowledge]

rude me?????????/

[ll_billym]

Press the red phone button / power key.

[sara3]

thanks again Billy, I see that now but it's still not doing anything. I think I'll leave it on charge overnight and see if it wants to play in the morning.

I guess it may work for a couple of hours on a full charge!

I did expect it to turn on though :o(

[craft1948]

some need charging for 24 hours first time....

[craft1948]

oh no that was my tooth brush.....

[ACtheTROLL]

yet another smart phone smarter than it's owner

try searching for turn device on

[sara3]

before it even switches on? I'm obviously really impatient!

thanks craft, I'll pay it a visit tomorrow ;o)

[sara3]

thanks AC, I think we've already covered that.

[No,Knowledge]

be like that then :0(

[sara3]

btw, no need for the apostrophe in "it's" unless you're meaning "it is".

I win.

[No,Knowledge]

what?

[No,Knowledge]

how do I turn the bloody thing on?

thank you.

what's rude about that?

[sara3]

that was meant for ACtheTROLL, who thinks I'm more stupid than I really am :o)

[ChuckFickens]

hold down the red (hang up) key

[sara3]

it's not working Chuck. there's a red light on while it's charging, but that's it.

maybe it has to charge for 24 hours, as craft suggested.
