Le Fabuleux Destin d'Nokia 5800

This will be my last mobile blog from the nokia, i feel that i will spend the next month pushing my old phones screen and wondering why nothing is happening. I like touchscreens! Its still slow and the photos are rubbish. Maybe I'm impatient and fussy? Nah. The novelty has definately worn off. It does a good job of phone calls and texts though.

May she be free and be of use to someone else now...

Thanks Thom and Roger for the technologicalistic wizardry paraphernalia.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Dell

This is my last blog on the Dell mini 9, I'll do a pros and cons

PROS:

• Its small enough to take with you when you wouldn't even consider taking a full size lappy
• It has Black Keys, which is also a great band from Akron, Ohio and a lot less messy than light coloured ones.
• The charger has a handy velcro strap to keep the cable tidy.
• Built-in SIM card holder, hello large cell phone.
• I feel like a giant

CONS:

• The quotations key is in an awful place!
• Full volume is rather low.
  
• The keys are really small and close together. My hands aren't THAT big, are they?
• 8GB of memory is not enough! (My first sub-notebook a Compaq Contura Aero had 250MB of memory, 256 colour screen and only 16 if you wanted high resolution(?!!!) and an external floppy drive, seems unbelievable now. Oh and if I remember right it cost 3x as much)
• I feel like a giant!

All in all I'm grateful for the opportunity to make use of this and the Nokia and I'm astounded that Thom and Roger managed to wrangle this deal.

Good effort guys, much appreciated now for Christmas can Santa provide an Apple in exchange for milk and cookies?

Design Line Toilet Paper?

Why not! Apparently 4 in every 10 people read while on the toilet, millions of people do it according to this BBC article. Thats a huge load of people!

Some say we spend 3 years of our life on the toilet.

Some people will read shampoo bottles or tampon boxes! How about reading something interesting......Design Line Toilet paper.

Hygienists recommend you read it before use only. Never after.
