"He who would travel happily must travel light." Antoine de St. Exupery

I am not an expert by any means on mobile phones so I will tell you the only thing I learnt here was that if you want to phone home use a call box and a phone card as this costs less than 1/2 a penny a minute in some countries.

A Good Idea

An excellent recommendation that was made to me by a fellow traveller was that I should have chosen an mobile phone with out the focus on the phone as much as getting the one with the BEST internal camera. You can get cell phones with 5 megapixel cameras which have excellent ranges with very good quality shots.

This way, in dodgy areas and at times, when I didn't feel like carrying my heavy camera bag and all the lenses it would have been great to have the freedom and flexibility just to point and shoot with my phone.

Also, as he pointed out, that had the children or I been bitten by a snake or spider we can get an instant shot if possible and MMS it immediately. It would have also been nice to MMS some of the more powerful moments to nearest and dearest. Even if it did mean waking them at 2am!
