Rob Zombie's a bit of a mixed bag. I really enjoy some songs like the very, very catchy 'Dragula' and some of his older stuff when he was still with the rest of the original band, i.e. White Zombie, when they made songs like 'More Human Than Human' etc.
But alas, some of his newer stuff is quite commercialised.
So yesterday was the WW2 D-Day anniversary; today is N-Day...
The circle is complete. Darth Hobbs gets his N-95 light sabre...er.. multimedia computer. The S60 Force is indeed strong in our Symbian Sith Lord...

Hey HOBBS
Lol, so how long are you going to charge it? an 1hr?
Posted by Kryptik
So have you taken delivery of your new baby yet, Hobbs? LOL, i'll bet he's too impatient to fully charge it straight away!
Posted by GUCCI.011
He must be still loading it with Music, Apps and Videos etc. . . And getting to know his new Multimedia Computer while its charging, atleast thats what i did
Well just got back from Fourways Mall, the consultant and i finaly convinced my Mom to take the HTC S710 over the BlackBerry 8310-Curve. Unfortunetly they didn't have the P1 in stock, she's pretty happy with the S710, its a nice lil PPC.

Congrats to your moms GUCCI

Believe it or not just took it out the box now.Just got back from work and am going to get seriously stuck in.Charge????? Bugger that.What a crap idea.Im going to abuse.lol Will have to send pics to Wangs to post for me.Still cant upload pics from my bosses computer.
Hoooooooooooooooooooooraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Finally I can let rip
Posted by GUCCI.011
Congrats Hobbs!!
I would suggest trying to upload pics via the built-in Web browser if you have good 3G/HSDPA reception or Wi-Fi. You'll be amazed by what these babies can do.
Posted by HOBBS
Ok Gucci Lets give that a bash.The funny thing is,Ive just unboxed a N95 8gb phone all I can think of doing is going to sleep.Hilarious.Cant appreciate it at the moment.Im soooooo mooooooeeeeeeg zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

@ Hobbster:
Once again congrats on obtaining that Multimedia Monster.
Catch some well-deserved
and hopefully you'll feel revitalised enough to start seriously dabbling with the Dark Side's dominating device.

Has anyone got that Nashua Mobile link? I lost it when i had to delete Opera Mini3.

So i was Googling about the iPhone coming to SA when i came across this very interesting article: http://mybroadband.co.za/news/Hardware/4029.html
So we are going to be getting the 2nd Gen iPhone also known as the "3G iPhone". Its going to be announced tomorrow, weirdly enough im excited, but i wonder what contracts will Vodacom offer this on? Talk500s? Talk1000s or maybe it will have its own contract like the Blackberry's.
Upgrade time next month, and Vodacom arent sure of when they are getting the N78 (atleast thats what the consultant said) at the vodashop yesterday.

@ GUCCI www.nashuamobile.co.za and click on "get quote" dude email me the file manager you using and a screenshot utility please.Got no time to search for stuff. calvpearce@gmail.com Shot bru

IF the new iPhone does make it to SA via legitimate means then I'll definitely upgrade to it. Doubt Vodacom wil price it for an arm and a leg since the current one has been a relative flop in Europe due to the ridiculous business model from Apple which makes the iPhone pretty expensive for consumers used to subsidized handsets.

Did you guys hear that the '95 rugby world cup (that SA won
) will be turned into a blockbuster movie. Apparently Morgan Freeman will be Mr. Mandela and Matt Damon the captain of that time, should be interesting...
GUCCI
I was at Vodaworld this weekend, and the nokia peeps there didn't know when the n78 is to come even though he said something about the n96 coming soon...
Posted by Falcon786

Hello guys don't know if you can help me but will post my problem so there we go,just bought a n73 last wednesday but the battery of the phone only last one day i even decrease the intensity of the light sensor of the display but still the battery last one day so was wondering is my battery already dead and should i take it back?
Posted by JC08
@ Jenova, whats your usage like?
Posted by Jenova
JC08 I'm using it for about one hour of wap, 30 minutes of phone calls and 2 hours of music.
Posted by JC08
@ jenova, sounds like moderate use, I think ama would be able to answer your question, he used to have a n73
Posted by bradboy
greetings! i havent been posting for ages
i finally left SE for S60, got da 6120c this morning, bt hope to go to SE wen da xperia comes to SA
anyone got links for cracked S60 apps?? i'm more interested in smartmovie, fexplorer,norton or similar apps
Posted by GUCCI.011
Jenova
You're N73 must be trying to keep the 3G reception. Go to Tools- Settings- Phone- Network- Network Mode (should be on Dual Mode) change it to GSM, that should improve battery life well. N73 has a big 1100mAh batt so it should be giving a lot more life.
BradBoy
Congrats on your new S60
Go to http://www.ip-mart.com OR both you and Hobbs must register at http://www.prodigits.co.uk theres a great and VERY active S60 Forum there with cracks, keygens,keys, Emulators, ROMS etc. . . For s60v3 phones.

Perhaps you didn't charge the phone long enough when you charged it the first time...
Posted by Jenova
Ok GUCCI.011 will try that and let you guys know
Gola i did charge it for about 8 hours isn't that enough
[ This Message was edited by: Jenova on 2008-06-09 15:55 ]
Posted by gola
Well that should be long enough, but i think the recommended time by Nokia is like 16hrs or something...
Posted by kyle_274
I charged my n81 for 14 hours wen i got it. And the battery is great. I get about 3 or 4 days with just sms's and mxit. And about 12 hours with intense use like browsin and downloadin. Ngage games. C2doom games and gameboy games. And music.

Im loving the Sammy i900 Omnia, too bad it Windows Mobile! Wish it could be Symbian...
Posted by HOBBS
@ Bradboy-Gucci gave you the wrong address. Its www.ipmart-forum.com
@Thanks Falcon Its is a gem of a phone.Im really impressed with it.
Posted by amawanqa
So the 3G iPhone is unveiled. Hmmm....
@ Jenova:
Gucci's beat me to it; it can only be the N73 'hunting' for 3G reception that drains the battery that fast; setting it to GSM only, as Gucci suggested, will definitely make a significant difference.
It certainly did on my N73 and 7600.
Posted by amawanqa
@ gola:
Carphone Warehouse here now have the N78; they're cheaper too, at £279.95 (approx R4200 using the current exchange rate).

Finally, thanks
it took them a while, and now it's a waiting game for us in SA. It's at a reasonable price too. Even though the $199 3g iphone 8gb is a giveaway...
Posted by JC08
@ gola, remember that 199 is still on a contract deal, not sim-free or payg
Posted by amawanqa
Yeah the price is finalised here for the 11 July launch: £99 plus £30 a month or more contract, for 18 months...
Posted by brix25
@HOBBS: A belated congrats on your new acquisition. Have you tried any of Gameloft's 3D titles like Extreme Snowboarding and Urban Asphalt 3: Street Rules? They're awesome games and should run pretty good on the N95.

WOW! That Samsung i900 looks like a real iPhone killer, those specs are pretty dam high for something so well sized, 5MP Cam, GPS, touchscreen only, Accelerometer, 600mhz CPU!!! Windows Mobile6.1 Pro, etc. . . Lets hope it actualy gets produced, SAMSUNG always do that,they announce something that could be unique then decide to cancel it at the last minute.
Wanqa
Ye that iPhone-3G is interesting, but all it seems they've done is to add 3G/HSDPA, GPS and some software, still 2mp cam,and no video recording, i wonder how it will do here in SA.
Gola
I was told at Prodigits that the N78 has arrived at MTN for testing and will be released mid next month, i hope it's true.
@ All
That Nashua Mobile thing realy is a rip-off! Does anyone know how much per month the N82 is on a Procall-120 contract? And is there any pay-in? If its under R315pm it would be perfect!!
Posted by Kryptik
Speaking of Pro, i see there's been quite a bit of discussion about a 20c/mb prepaid data rate on Virgin, Gucci. Got any inside info about it?
Posted by HOBBS
Gucci have you ever thought of using your cellphone to 'phone' Vodacom and asking them lol
@Brix-Thanks buddy.Ive only done some basics so far like set up my WLAN,email,put some music on,browsed the net ect Just no time to enjoy to the fullest at the moment.Absolutely adore the camera (Wangs you would adore this camera bud) and WOW you should see how clean and smooth your recording of video is.Other than that havent delved into it as yet but am 100 percent happy with my choice.And to top it all it a beauty on the ol eye

hi all
how you've been around here?
i guess you all know that my p990 was stolen, right?
Posted by GUCCI.011
Kryptik
Nope, haven't heard about it until now,il look for more info on it.
Hobbs
Voda want a R1499 pay in for N82 on my contract, since i got the N81 my parents will not pay-in for another phone. . . .hmmm looks like my days of free loading are over, time to find a holiday job
im trying to find out if MTN need a pay-in, hopefully not when i upgrade next month,it's cheaper and unbranded with them.
Tranced
OUCH! Sorry to hear that,didnt know. What phone are you using now? Was your P990 insured?
