Thank you Alan,

I'm not neither a depending phone guy, we have lived many years  
without the need of a mobile, many times mine is off, my wife say she  
don't know why I have a mobile, and I always say that the persons who  
want contact me they perfectly know my home phone... OTHO I do  
sometimes like you, film  for B&W, M8 for color.

cheers
Lluis
