Corby Pro Mobile Restored - Should I be proud of this wired world?

This is 12.30 at night.

It all started on just before I was about to board the train.

Day One : The Phone says Messaging cannot be initialized, that means I cant message my friends in Delhi and Jodhpur that I am sitting in a meeting and waiting for them to meet me.. The service centre people tell me that it will have to be formatted

Day Three – I try to run internet on it and doesn’t work but I take the backup for everything on the phone,

Day Four morning – I get the software,

First the mobile internet was a problem, then the mobile operating system, then the PC suite software, then the software update, then the backup upload, then the dealer. None of them could solve it :(
Dejected I searched on the internet to find 100 people facing same issues and giving up. One good samaritan had solved it and had posted it for all.
Dug up the old CDs, repaired my old desktop and reloaded all the softwares on the new laptop and solved the glitches !!!

Or did I spoil my hard-earned saturday and managed to turn off a few friends and family with this obsession with the wired world?? Is this technology here to shape or spoil one's mood?
