iPhone 4s makes up for little Molly's mishap

04 Feb, 2012 03:00 AM
SEVEN-month-old Molly Beeston, of Summerhill, mightn't have been the most popular in her family after she broke her mum's iPhone 4 last month.

But yesterday, parents Rebecca and Phil Beeston couldn't have been happier with her after finding out that she had helped them to win a new iPhone 4S, courtesy of Telstra.

Mr Beeston had submitted a photo of Molly, taken by Mrs Beeston, to The Examiner's Summer Living in Tassie assignment for a chance to win the phone.

The winning photo was taken of Molly in a lifesaver swimsuit at West Ulverstone beach where the family were camping last month.

A couple of days after the photo was taken, Molly was keeping herself occupied on the phone when she dropped it into a rock pool.

This week, Mrs Beeston was in the Telstra Shop to discuss options for a new phone before her husband got a call from The Examiner. ``It was a great surprise and we were ecstatic,'' Mr Beeston said.

Telstra Northern Tasmania customer service manager Andrew Purdon congratulated the Beestons. ``We're really pleased the phone has gone to such a great photo,'' Mr Purdon said. ``And the story behind it makes it even more worthwhile.''

The phone was the second given away by The Examiner. Readers now have a third and final chance to win a white iPhone 4s by submitting a photo of themselves or friends and family with The Examiner newspaper, on our website, or checking out our iPhone app.

To enter, download The Examiner iPhone app for free from iTunes and click the REPORT button in the top right-hand corner.

Submit your photos under the You and Your Examiner assignment. The competition ends on March 2.
