I learnt my lesson a couple of years ago, after being on a terrible carrier but contracted and couldn't leave without paying out the rest of the contract. Now I buy my devices outright and sit on rolling 1 month contracts only. Might be time to say bye-bye to T-Mobile.

There are many communities on the Internet where the number of members in each country (or some countries) may be low, but the worldwide population is large enough to remain vibrant and interesting. As a software developer, many of the tools I use and research I conduct is web based and almost none of it is local. There are large amounts of useful information contained in (who would have guessed?) blogs.
