One to keep in the office in order to charge my extra-ordinarily geeky new phone. Not only does it have the picture of St Catherine of Alexandria from the post below as the wallpaper, its ring tone is some Dominican Friars singing the Salve Regina.
Anyway. Below is typed the text from the piece of paper that fell out the box when I ripped it open:
Instructions for use:
To use, plug mains charger directly into a readily accessible socket outlet located near to the equipment. Connect to your compatible handset to charge the phone’s battery. You can use your phone whilst charging.
For additional information, please refer to your handset user guide.
I would venture to suggest that if you need “how to charge your phone” instructions that go into this much detail, you should probably stick to using two tin cans and a bit of string. Or possibly carrier pigeons. Or semaphore.
I am surprised at the lack of dire warnings about the inadvisability of using it in the bath, or sticking the connector in your eye, or wrapping the cord really tightly about your neck and giving it a yank.
