Yesterday, with great glee, I received my new international hell-phone, sans SIM, which I'm planning on buying in France. I bought it through a US broker, all documentation of the sale was in English, and I didn't buy a France SIM - in other words, the phone people had no idea where I was going.
Imagine my suprise when...
My phone speaks french.
Slightly better than I do, I might add. Not much for conversation, though.
The package also inclued lots of helpful documentation...also in french. And a SIM card, which I didn't order. Probably some sort of gimic. Since phone salesman french is a world away from my conversational french, I'm not using it for fear it will eat my soul.
With mayonaise.
