The Nokia 3500 is now available in pink from Fido, even though it doesn’t look all that pink. Not really that big of a deal. The pink is limited to the direction pad and keypad which light up. The pinkified Nokia 3500 will cost the same as the regular version of the 3500: $15 a month with a 3-year contract, $90 for a 2-year contract, $100 standalone phone. Probably a good phone for those girls who want to be all Sex in the City.

It features a 2 megapixel camera, music player and built-in FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, tri-band GSM support and a microSD memory card slot. Also has Handsfree speaker, Voice commands, calendar, to-do list, notes, countdown timer, stopwatch and calculator. Just a bit of pink. Nothing to see here. Move along.

If you’re in the market for a new spacecraft, this space ship in excellent condition could be yours. It’s a 4 passenger model and even has the original owners’ manual. Better still, no dents or dings from meteors or other space debri. Only 300 million Intergalactic miles.

Screw you Richard Branson. I’m on the next flight out of here. I’ll figure everything out while I’m up there. My first priority is figuring out how to cope with the lack of bathroom facilities. They are only asking $3500 (or best offer).
