I really want both a PS3 and a Nintendo Wii.
Now clearly at the moment I don't have hundreds of pounds to throw around and so this is pretty much a pipe dream.
Then I had a dawning realisation...
May 2008 is Mobile Phone Contract renewal time for both Serena and I. I am no longer precious about changing my number (although Serena might be), so I reckon I will go for a good deal and worry about the number afterwards.
I had intended to go direct to Orange like always, but looking around I can get a better deal from the likes of The Link or Carphone Warehouse AND I can choose a free PS3 or Wii. Since I have 2 phone contracts to upgrade I reckon that means I could get both!
I need to check the fine print, but I see the start of a beautiful friendship coming! (Although I may not get the phone I really want - Blackberry - with the deal).

Yeah mate, it's extremely likely you won't get the Blackberry for it. But since you have two contracts to sell to them I'd do the hard push.
Given the fact that I have both consoles I completely understand and can see your reasons for getting each console. I'd recommend that if you have to go for just 1, you go for the Wii, for all the family / social aspects of it.
In time you'll be able to 'upgrade' to Blu-Ray get full HD 1080p TV and then enjoy those games the PS3 offers. Of course, do remember that it's possible if you move to PS3 you will use your PCs less for gaming, even though there are online games on the PC which do overshadow the PS3.
The other way to do it is to take a contract that gives you the right phone you want (BBerry) and something else. Then sell the something else and pick up a Wii with the cash....
I can get a PS3 or Wii with a BB Pearl 8110 (in Pink). I want the 8120 and am fighting hard!
Or even a non-pink 8110 would be better....keep fighting for the 8120...
I have found a good "flext" deal for both the 10 versions of the Pearl and Curve. Both can be Wii or PS3 as well. Serena is coming to the shop to choose which she likes better - I am betting on the Curve for her - I'll pick the Pearl as it is more likely to sit in my pocket (as opposed to Serena's in a bag).
Good man!! You are coming to T-Mobile :) By far the best mobile operator I've ever been a customer of...
I like the Pearl, and I bought the leather BB holster for it which is really snug, and turns it to sleep mode soon as you put it in / wakes it up when you take it out. Absolutely maximises battery life.
Curve is too big for me, as I don't do hangbags and rarely take my manbag with me.
I'm intrigued to see if Orange will do me a matching deal with PS3/Wii. Serena is busy this weekend so it will be another week before she looks at the Blackberries.
I can wait!
