Interesting, sometimes funny comments on the HTC touch, SE P1i, Apple iPhone and Nokia E90 Communicator from the gadget freak actor/writer...

Nice read... and you have to nod at most of his points... I love the bit where he says "Sony Ericsson have rolled over and asked to be kicked and shagged roughly" with reference to UIQ on the P1i... made me smile and I love my P1i...
But valid points at all the phones he has mentioned...

Indeed some valid points and great insights into the progress of Symbian from its days as EPOC. He made me chuckle when he commented on Palm's brilliant system of storing text messages as conversations- an idea recently jumped upon by Apple.

No he isn't. He took a test on his tv show and it came back negative. George Michael refused to take the test (on the same show) because he was scared what result would come back!

Did anybody see him on Room 101 last night? Singing the praises of the iMac he was, bless him
Somehow I could never see him being a PC user, he's too impatient.

that room 101 is from 6 years ago

Yup, they showed a picture of an original imac with it's see through monitor / base unit combo. I've still got one somewhere, come to think of it...
