Yeah! Exactly,his music is very different, and kind of old school. In the new album im enjoying: Il Be Waiting, Bring It On, If You Want It, Good Morning, Love Love Love and a few others, some of them sound old school, you can hear he sampled from a few old artists.

The
W910i has dropped a fair bit in price here, now retailing for £149.95 (approx R2250 using the current exchange rate).
Unbranded and unlocked at CPW:

woooooo ha
I got my w890i from vodacom , branded with vodacrap
I flashed it, with the generic software using da vinci now its off the chains.
Posted by amawanqa
Congrats, TI! That's one very cool-looking
phone; I prefer it far more than the W880i; the buttons on that one are a joke, to say the least.
Glad you managed to get rid of the hideous Vodacrap too.
Posted by gola
Congrats Teeninvader, did you have to first unlock it or did you just straight up flash it? How long did it take? I want to do the same with my phone, but i'm too afraid...
Was there any paying of any sort you had to do?

No unlocking the fone was not locked. I just selected flash and selected the south africa generic software. I was suppose un buy only 10 credit which is 100 R. But i was mislead to buy 50.
Yah the fone looks cool i got the black. I here that silver is only available on mtn.
And it took about 30 min on dsl 384kb

You would have made my day Teeninvader...
Posted by JC08
@ teeninvader, congrats man, whats your first impressions like?
Posted by GUCCI.011
Congrats Teeninvader! I think the Black looks better.
Gola
You're going to have an all new W900 when you remove that Voda branding, got to admit im a bit jealous
i would loved to have seen how my W900 would have looked with the original Menus.
Posted by gola
lol, GUCCI. It's not that simple, 'cos i just found out that i have to first unlock it after i used seus to flash it. All that did was put some new features, still vodafone, or vodacrap as Teen said
Posted by GUCCI.011
Ah! Dam that sucks then, atleast its unlocked i guess.
Posted by gola
Nah, still locked...
Posted by HOBBS
So if 10credits=R100 then 50credits="please dont say R500"
Posted by HOBBS
Fcuk this rain in newlands is playing havoc with the dstv.and the damn game is so close.shit signals gone.
Posted by HOBBS
Shit signal back and it 13-13
Posted by JC08
@ hobss, damn a draw, weather looked crap! Now we got to hope that the Stormers get a huge score vs Lions and that the Sharks has a close game...
Posted by TeenInvader
The fone is cool, i still haven't had time to use all its stuff though.
I must say that the button still sucks though, i think they are as bad as w880 at leat the navigation buttons and the soft keys.
It doesn't have the flash light, maybe there are setting to be able to take pictures at night, lord knows.
The speaker is a little bit too small so the ring tones don't sound that fat. and the vibrator is also not that strong
But the fone rocks otherwise.
Another thing i'm worried about is the batter lid. it have so buttons /latches to lock and unlock it, i think that will break in the life time of the fone
Today I'm going to test the media player...
And yes 50 credit I payed more that 500R ...

TV images taken with the P1i. I've downsized them a helluva lot, as pics directly off the TV aren't the best and there's no point in keeping them at mega-sizes just to show how SA's Hudson Kennaugh outclassed the rest of the racing field in today's British Supersport race.
Taken from the British Eurosport Sky TV channel this afternoon:

Howzit Fellaz.I can't believe whaz MTN is doing to me.My P1 has been gone long enough now.Since March 17 now it's May 10.I even had to buy another phone to keep in touch(HTC P4350)Not a bad phone offcourse,only low on ram & internal memory.I just don't understand why the can't replace the phone instead of keeping it for that long.Anyway how has everyone been doing?
Posted by HOBBS
Jmash who are you talking to at MTN.It sounds to me like you havent climbed the ladder of power.Thats almost two months on a contract phone.Unheard of.Clench the the fists,grit the teeth and wreak havoc dude.Whats wrong with you.
Posted by jmash
Yo Hobbs,that's exatly what I'm gonna do tomorrow man.I've had enough of this crap bro.
Posted by GUCCI.011
Jmash
Ay that realy sucks man, you even had to buy another phone? They should just give you a replacement, they've had your phone longer than you've had it.
Isn't the P4350 like over R5000?

There's just no ways I would tolerate such unacceptable service.
There's just no way that any excuse levied for such a delay is understandable or explainable. None.
Posted by jmash
@GUCCi,I only payed R950 for the HTC bro.It's a refurbished handset.
@Wanqa indeed mfowethu that's totally unacceptable service.I'm really gonna KAK them out tomorrow.
Posted by amawanqa
@ jmash:
The manager of wherever you took that handset needs to be approached/confronted directly, and have all your evidence/paperwork with you; that'll back up your every right to be naaked-off enough to take matters further, if necessary.

Daaaamn J, that's way too long, dude. Give em hell today, really make a big noise. And i do mean BIG noise... There are few things which managers dislike more than customers bitching at top volume about poor service. It's bad for biz, so the manager will end up doing his best to keep you quiet, hopefully including the offer of a brand-new handset.

Hope everyone has a fantastic week.

hey all. does anyone know any good site to download mobile movies? i use moviesmobile.net. but some of there movies the picture is very choppy. and the audio and video isn't synced. maybe its because im playing them on my pc, i dont know, i dont have the phone yet. so i cant test it on the phone
Posted by Janbobejan
Hey Ama - You've 'inspired' me with your nice pics
Here are a few of my own.
My N73's keypad works only partially (buttons 2,3,7,8 and zoom in/volume up are down - keypad is fine thou - this time the damage is 'terminal' - Input decoding chip is toast)
Here is a pic of the 'innards' of a N73
And here is what my N73 looks like (over time I have changed most of the inside components + covers)
Ama - In your opinion what does a 'macro picture' mean? I thought only pics which appear bigger then real life are 'real' macro's.
While on vacation a few weeks ago, my kid saw this bug. my index finger is underneath. (So that you can get a idea of the magnification - about 7-8 X)
And finaly - here is something which bothered me the whole damn weekend. I went flying (as usual) this weekend (nice weather on Sat) and did not see a hidden rock while 'pullig up' the glider/wing. After a epic 35 min flight along Rondebosh ridge, I've discovered this (while folding up/packing the glider).
It may not look like much but when is coming to safety and rules/air worthy/certification, this is the equivalent of a bumper writeoff. Not only I can't really aford the +-2500 Rand to fix it but the 'grounded time' (1-2 months) is going to kill me.
Greetings from Jeffrey's
P.S. Please someone fix my spelling before brix grounds me (or is it grinds?)

@ Jan:
I guess if one looks at the origin of the term 'macro' mode, then yes, it does refer to pics reperesented as bigger than they are in real life. This is obviously apparent when viewing the pic on say, a PC monitor.
That fantastic macro pic of the gogga is a fine example.
But equally obvious is the ability for the camera to focus on such close-up detail, clear enough for detail etc to be viewed in amplified state; ie. on a monitor, screen, etc.
But hey, I'm no photography boffin, so dunno about a personal opinion about the subject, and my attempt at macro mode etymology is just based on what I've read (or perhaps what I can remember, LOL) over the years.
