Good evening everyone and welcome to another chat on the couch. Tonight I am joined by a member of a very rare species on Esato, a female Esatonian. Hailing from he Netherlends my guest is one of Esato's oldest active members and reguarly contributes to many threads. It is my pleasure to be speaking with Bianca.
What is the best thing about Esato?
Bianca says:
Esato is a great place where you can find all the information about Sony Ericsson that you need. And if anybody has a question there are always people willing to help.
Who is your favourite member of Esato?
Bianca says:
I cant pick just one, i like a lot of esatonians. For example ayush, bacanito, bobafett, ivan kusturin, ricky, SIR-Sonyericsson-man and the other dutch members.
Who is your favourite moderator?
Bianca says:
I can’t judge on that because i only see tranquil and masseur online. I dont see the other mods much at esato because of the different timezones.
What is your favourite Esato moment?
Bianca says:
When the picture of the T650 was posted at esato and all the rumours around it. I knew i wanted that phone right away. Later it turned out to be the K700
What is your least favourite Esato moment?
Bianca says:
The moments esato are down. Fortunately Laffen is doing a pretty good job.
You are one of the few female Esatonians who post on a regular basis, have you found it difficult to integrate into a primarily male environment?
Bianca says:
I had no difficulties with that at all. On esato everybody is equal.
Do you get on well with Esato's other female members?
Bianca says:
Yes the other female members i know are nice and have a lot of knowledge about phones
Having been an Esatonian for some time now, have you noticed any changes to Esato?
Bianca says:
I remember when html light was introduced, that was a big change because i was always using the wap forum on my p800 untill then. After i sold my p800 i switched back to the xhtml forum. Other than that i noticed some slight changes.
Do you think Esato needs a 'new look'?
Bianca says:
A new look would be cool but on the other hand this forum is fast and recognizable so what else do we need.
Which mobile are you currently using?
Bianca says:
At the moment i only have a k700. I have this phone for a while now but i still like it and i have no plans of selling my k700 for another SE.
Which mobile are you most looking forward to?
Bianca says:
I dont really like the new models i saw on the internet. Maybe it will change when i see them in the shops but for now i dont think about changing my phone. Maybe i will upgrade to a p900 or p910 in the future.
Do you have a message for Esato?
Bianca says:
Keep up the good work and SE rules
Thank you very much to my guest, Bianca, and I hope you will be able to join me again soon, when my guests will include jplacson, whizkidd, sapporobaby and AYA.

Good afternoon, joining me on the couch today is one of Esato's newer members. He has fast integrated himself into our community and has made many a friend in the process. A proud Nigerian he stands for one of the areas of the world little represented on Esato. Please give a warm Esato welcome to AYA.
What is the best thing about Esato?
AYA says:
Being able to talk about mobile phones and technology in a close-knit community
Who is your favourite member of Esato?
AYA says:
That would have to be between BobaFet and Scotsboyuk (yes, you!) 
Who is your favourite moderator?
AYA says:
I have only 'met' Tranquil and Masseur till date, and it seems to me that they both do a good job. Of course, it so happened that Tranquil was watching from behind the scenes on my regional thread when I made a special request for people to send my wife goodwill messages on her birthday last year. He was the first person to send one and that warmed my heart to him. I am naturally biased towards anyone who gives my wife a treat 
What is your favourite Esato moment?
AYA says:
I particularly enjoyed the friendly punches Masseur and Tranquil threw themselves on the belated thread marking the latter's birthday recently.
What is your least favourite Esato moment?
AYA says:
Can't pencil one down YET.
You live in Nigeria, which is a relatively poor country when compared with European nations; do you find it offensive that other members should be commenting on how much they want a new mobile, which may very well cost more than the average monthly wage in your country?
AYA says:
Not at all. Nigeria (like any other country) is primarily responsible for its people's standard of living. Anyone tries to make it look otherwise is kidding himself.
Personally, I have used over 20 different mobiles (including quite a few high-end ones) in the last 3 years, and methinks maybe some of my own countrymen would be offended at that too. I could have done something else with all that money, but like someone said, I wouldn't have had so much fun
Many Esatonians may have a steretyped view of Africa, can you give us an indication of what the mobile market in Africa, in general, is like?
AYA says:
Africa has vibrant mobile markets in a number of key countries, with millions of new subscriptions yearly. South Africa has the largest and most vibrant till date. But then, nigeria has the fastest growing network and is the fastest growing market at the moment.
No doubt, most subscribers do nothing more than voice calls and SMS, but a significant (and increasing) number are taking up data, including CSD, GPRS, EDGE, and (yes) UMTS.
What is your primary means of access to Esato?
AYA says:
My mobile device, which is also my primary means of access to the internet. I run over 80% of my business online from my mobiles. That includes administering hundreds of web hosting accounts, publishing webpages and files, and of course, good old email. You could correctly call me a mobile freak.
Do you think Esato needs a 'new look'?
AYA says:
A new look is always welcome, but looks is certainly not what drives Esato. Its the spirit, and I hope that never changes.
Which mobile are you currently using?
AYA says:
The original smartphone, SE P800 is my primary device at the moment, although I have a few other mobiles.
Which mobile are you most looking forward to?
AYA says:
Was looking at the MPx, but I have not been particularly encouraged with initial reviews (bugs and all), so my eyes are on the 9500 unless SE comes out quickly with something that can match that.
Do you have a message for Esato?
AYA says:
Its always better to be friends than to be at loggerheads with one another. And to Laffen and his team, thanks for a great home online!
Thank you to my guest, AYA, and I hope you will join me again soon for another chat on the couch.
