Yah, His Royal Wanqness is utterly chuffed after such a chinwag with said Royalty.

I'm trying to imagine cucumber sandwiches on a braai now...

Posh talk the quick way:

Q, what do you breathe in?
A, air

Q, what grows out of your head?
A, hair

Q, the home of a Fox?
A, Lair

Now put them all together and you are ready to greet... by saying out loud 'AIR, HAIRLAIR!'

Tsepz as you've seen on the x10 thread I'm back on cm7.0.3. the x10 in the current eclair state is too painful to use.se gingerbread better have quadrant benchmarks above at least 1000.that eclair rom maxed out at +-550 for me.that sucks big-time.getting between 1200-1400 on the cm7.0.3.how can you go back to 550.you can't.

Thats awesome news Wanqs! Congrats on meeting Prince Charles, i would've been a nervous wreck having to remember exactly how to act. "AIR, HAIRLAIR"

Think i'll be sticking to Android and maybe get a Samsung if there's no SE dual-core droid, maybe get the next Google Nexus, i see Voda have the Nexus S, so we should get the next one to.
Hows your X10 treating you?
Think i may flash a new baseband and also expirament with the Gingie ROMs seeing as its only coming in Aug

@Tsepz Same ol' same ol' with the ol' X10.CM7.0.3 is treating me well.Keeps me calm while August arrives.Been really busy setting up my computer with the new Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal so my focus has been re-directed and August will be here before I know it.My other contract terminates on Friday so Ive done really well holding off on getting an impulse upgrade.Down to one contract now.

His Royal Wanqness will be in SA at the end of this month; 3 weeks in East London and 1 in Jozi. Can't wait.

In other news, HTC's Evo 3D looks interesting:

Wanqa, I've always wondered whether those are really Charlie's ears, or are they stage props, as has been suggested...

As well as could be, gentlemen, given the absolutely crazy weather which we've been enjoying of late. Gotta love it when the met. office actually get their predictions right once in a while.

Apparently Cell Sheep is running a promo during July:

Recharge with R50 a week and receive 50 bonus SMSs, 50 Cell C to Cell C minutes and a whopping 500 Megabytes!
The bonus value must be used within a calendar week, Monday to Sunday. So if you recharge and receive your bonus value on a Saturday, you will only have until that Sunday to use your extra value or it will expire.
Bonus value is capped at 100 SMSs, 100 Cell C to Cell C minutes and 1000 Megabytes.

Hi Kryptik.Shot for the Cell Sheep promo heads-up.

Can you believe it.My sim has now been in my E90 Communicator for the last four days and my X10 has been relegated to a 'Music Player'. Really enjoying it.Web browsing on this phone with the latest Opera Mini is lovely and I'm really really enjoying the physical keyboards.Its hacked and I have my certificates to install unsigned apps.Just downloaded Profimail so I can get the 'push' email going again.The battery life is insane.Whole day usage and its dropped just one bar.I will most probably return to the X10 once the Gingerbread update appears in August but for now its all E90.

Lol, Kryptik seems to have brought S60 fever, was using my 5800xm today, it had a bunch of updates waiting and i wanted to test how the new Opera Mini6.1 is on it, the Opera Team have out done themselves, its fast and very fluid.

That E90 realy has treated you well Hobbs, such a shame smartphones just arent built the way that beast was these days, part of me feels the "opulence" and geekyness of smartphones has been stripped away, no thanks to the iPhones and Crapberrys, i miss the days of the huge, chunky yet sophisticated and raw power smartphones like the N93, N95, E90, P990, HTC TyTNII etc... i remember how i used to drool over those things, how they required tweaking and unsigned apps to work as you want, now its just touch slabs with average cameras, and the most exciting hardware is the CPU and Screen, lol.

Wanqa
If its one thing you gota love about Nokia is their excellent FW update support especialy for their best selling smartphones, can you believe the 5800 (along with other s60v5s except big N97) wik be recieving another update that will bring the Symbian Anna web browser amongst other things: http://www.allaboutsymbian.co[....]_S60_3rd_Edition_and_S60_5.php ,also if you havent already id suggest you check the SW Update app, there's some Ovi Map3.6 update and a few others.

Any other alternative for Profimail for Symbian.Got the keygen and the host file to put in C/'private' folder but just stays on 'initializing' when trying to update my mail and then says Timed Out.Maybe Profimail has plugged the hole.
