Linex is fun

Ok it's ancient but brings back happy memories from childhood. Spending time at summer cottage, without electricity, without TV, definitively without computers. Playing this paper-and-pencil game in candle light.

And now you can do it on your communicator! That's called progress, right?

Without TV..when it said forum elder veteran i didnt think it meant literally 😃
Hehehe

I cant remember a time without a TV but i can remember a time without a computer 😮ops:

But yes the oldies are still the best!

Perhaps I should explain something here: us Finns have a strange habit of retreating into little cottages for weeks during summer. They are always on a lake and seldom have any modern appliances whatsoever. At the moment ours has electricity (installed about 5 yrs ago) but still no TV. But communicator works naturally!

I was about to say somthehing, then I canged my mind. If no electricity, do you charge the 9210 at solar light?

In fact I've seen pictures of phone battery chargers that uses solar energy. It must be a joke to use - not in a rainy day... 😃

I've still not figured out the finer points of Linex after the process of making simple lines... How the bloody hell does it work.

😉 another great thing abt LINEX would be the capability to change the background image... but i'm not so sure abt the sound though... is it working???

I hear some opening music and a faint chk-sound each time I draw a line. And that sound can be turned on or off. I don't think there are other sound effects.

It exists solar back-cover for Nokia 33xx, so you never need to give it to charger. You must have it with back-cover up, so it is selfcharging over day.

LAuRA, solar panels do not necessary need sunshine! Just some light, even in a rainy day.... Of course they are more powerful when there is more light.... We have solar panels in our summer cottage in Lapland and only the darkest winter months from late november to early march are those when the panels are not charging...
