Last night, my beloved Nokia N82 refused reading any memory cards! I tried 3 different ones, 2 2GB cards and 1 8GB card. All to no avail.  This morning I received my new 8GB card in the mail (had ordered it a few days ago) and it also did not work in the N82. Numerous times I reset the phone using the *#7370# code…no dice. I called Nokia Customer Support and after a few minutes was told to ship my phone in ( I dreaded the sound of that).

Getting together all the paperwork to prove when I purchased the phone, I ran to the local MailBoxes Etc. on campus and shipped the phone to Placo for the outrageous price of $22.89 via UPS. I hope that it gets to Alabama on time and that they are able to fix/repair the phone or send me a new one (free of charge would be nice).

I am now using my backup phone, a 2G iPhone, which i just upgraded to 2.1 and jailbroke. Hopefully it will be good and work until I get my real phone back. So far I am missing all my music from my N82, my downloaded podcasts, the keypad, and most of all MMS capabilities.

I will keep the blog updated daily until I receive my N82 back, in case others have to go through this, to let them know what happens.
