What Do You Do If You Forget Your Pocket PC (Phone)?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "THOUGHT" @ 08:00 AM
"It happens from time to time, you are in hurry in the morning and you leave your home but also leaving either your wallet or your Pocket PC (Phone Edition) or mobile phone. If this happens to me, I feel completely naked. It's less a problem if I leave my wallet at home but it becomes a serious problem if I leave my Smartphone. You can always borrow money from friends or co-workers but how to borrow personal communication facilities? Therefore, everything < 20 minutes I return to pick-up my Smartphone something never happened if i forgot my wallet (at home - for sure not at a restaurant or other public places)."
Arne targets his discussion to Windows Mobile-based phone devices, although we can generalize the discussion a little bit to include Pocket PCs. In my case, I just use the same trick as for my wallet or keys -- which is to never ever forget it -- so I'm never stuck. I generally "pat my pockets" whenever leaving a location for the day (i.e., leaving home for work, leaving work for lunch, leaving work for home, etc), just to make sure. What about you? Have you left your precious at home and had to go back and get it? Or did you try to "tough the day out" and suffer? Time to share some stories. :D
