![City of Bass [Dispatches from DJ Mad Wax]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsv0QqLbagtIXgSkaG8P71y5a35a_9njRQili21hwwXBWPT61VrK3ImmM_LhiPdfAzeiGpD8HN-GkSivf4TnaicEUcRCztKpvvC16kuACrKV6sSuqZWtRG3GaQvHu9nO_3RGSxyrMe1VE/s1600/djmadwax_city_of_bass_banner.gif)
when my mobile device died a year ago, I went digging into the boxes for the spare I'd bought when my wife still worked for a major cell carrier. You see, we had some deep discounts on all sorts of items, from plans to buying phones.
I'd bought a Motorola Q, which at the time, was a hot device to have. At least for business folks, anyway. I got it up and working, but its interesting looking at the 2010 web through the 2006 device/software, as they the device wont support updates to modern software.
This comes into play with all sorts of programs, from checking out twitter (no cool apps, just the mobile web page version) to being stuck in one place for 5 hours, like yesterday and wishing I had some mobile music software to bang out beats while I wait.
The real question now is: do I use that Christmas giftcard for "interview" shoes, or buy an iTouch and get mobile beat production going ;)
