How could you tell, the pic was all blurry and whatnot? Hey... wait a minute... Mobile Mike? What gives?
I've seen other pictures of the phone on other sites (I can't remember what they are at the moment...:O ) Secondly, I've wanted to change my name for a while now. Considering all of the mobile phones I own (and the fact that I have "the Big 4"), I thought my new name was quite appropriate.
