Right peeps, here we go, for the third successive year.

You better watch out,
you better be good...
Wanqa Claus is comin' to town, LOL.

For those unfamiliar with what I'm doing here, every year I attend the Symbian Smartphone Show and try gather smartphone-related freebies for those in the SAMD thread.

Why? Simple. 2 reasons actually.

1. Why should only Europe/UK show-goers have access to all this stuff? Not if I can help it, LOL.
2. My li'l way of saying thanks to all those that contribute to this thread and keep this very special thread alive n' kickin'.

No catches, nothing. Lekker (smartphone-related) 'Christmas box' for ya'll, LOL.

Postage? c/o Wanqa Claus. Ho, ho, ho. (If we ever meet up in SA, you can buy me a Black Label, LOL).

PM me which colour lanyards ya'll would prefer. (max 2 per person...don't all shout/PM for the pink ones at once, ).
I'll also distribute the rest of the stuff between us, but I'm keeping the 2 t-shirts and sweeties!

I have the following postal addresses:

1. Kryptik
2. JC08
3. Hobbster
4. Rhino8
5. JK (is he still around?)
6. Jmash (ditto)
7. Siosal (ditto)
8. mario2004

Now then, if any other SA Mobile Discussion contributors/posters (including any not from SA but who have contributed to this thread), PM me your postal address and I'll send some these out to you next week, when I'm on a week's break:





Enjoy.

Ho, ho, hooo... The Lord Of the Lanyards (L.O.L.?) hath spoken!!! .

@ Gucci:
Yeah, that explains why the UIQ stand was a no-show this year, and why there were virtually fokkol UIQ3 handsets at the stand...

@ Gucci:
I asked the one Finnish Nokia S60 software developer about a touchscreen N-series handset.
He couldn't even hint as to when it would be launched, except that more S60 touchscreen devices were certainly on the cards...

Also, I asked him why their first touchscreen S60 to showcase is on a music-orientated 3.2mp offering instead of a new flagship model.
He had a great response:
Being priced at 279 Euros, he said that Nokia were determined to show that access to touchscreen smartphones was not just for the exclusivity of top-of-the-range handsets and out of financial reach of many; the fact that it was a music-orientated mid-range (?!) handset to launch it was deliberate to emphasise Nokia's stance to make this more widely acceptable and accessible to a wider range of users.

Wow. Well now, if this handset is in itself a pre-cursor for things to come, then there's a helluva lot to look forward to...

Lol! True took me a while to figure out who Georgey is, lol good times.
JC
Yep, its a sweet app! But im still trying to figure out how to get my PSP to work with it then i'd be able to browse the web with it via my phone. Works fine when i use the N95 to browse the web via the N81 though.
