I charged it when it got here and played with it a bit - like adding my phone
numbers to Michael's directory and listening to the ring tones, etc. Then I
topped up the battery and put phone and charger into the Priority Box and sent
it off. The phone is turned off - but I have no idea of the stand-by battery
life. If Michael takes a month or so to collect the instrument I think the
included charger may come in handy.

I've had shrimp lots of ways. I also like salt & pepper shrimp, the butter
shrimp from the Chinese buffets - I always leave the Krab behind and take just
the little shrimp and some veggies - even shrimp "burgers" which are made with
chopped shrimp held together with binders, breaded/battered and deep fried.
