Someone stole Blades motorbike and was spotted in Cumbria.If i was that person id get the hell out of there cause Blade is pissed and wants his bike back.Nice to have you back dude.i like the photo in the dark with the moon and clouds.(think that what it is.using mobile so pic is insy winsy.)Its getting very depressing.User reviews,threads popping up all over the place about P1i,W960i and my fav at the mo E90.Knowing my past history with phones i'll have one of those three in my possession come October.There is alway a way.Or at least i find it.Sad thing is it will most probably be THE TERMINATOR.That baby has me spellbound.HSPDA and 16 million huge colour display is what get my vote.I browse mostly on my phone so its perfect.

Thanks Hobbster. Dang, with the P1i on sale now on O2's site, as well as at Mphone and Expansys at the moment, I'm sooo bloody tempted to get one already.
Maybe it's because I've had the P900 so long and I'm suddenly less patient than what I normally would be. Nah, I must wait... Gotta somehow give it a month or two; at the moment there obviously won't be much room for negotiating a good deal on O2's latest handset.
Gonna push to get it for free with a minimal 12 month contract in a few months time and see what happens..

@ Kryptik,
Thanks boet.
That Audi Q (Quattro) 7 has some serious presence; it would be on my shortlist for sure if I had the means to afford such a vehicle. 2 bikes, a mortgage etc. chomp away at my savings enough as it is. Now where did I put those Lotto tickets... LOL.

@ Francois,
Ja nee, how they can rate something that isn't even available yet says it all really.
8000 songs. LOL, if it had 32 Gigs, then fair enough.

Also, an August availability date for the W960i seems almost as 'optimistic'. I hope I'm wrong with this one, though...


BTW, the W580i slider is now available from some independent retailers here.

Saw the pics of the Twenty20 World Cup opening ceremony in SA from last week.
Can't say I expected loadsa Harleys to be part of the ceremony, but anyway...




And brands making their mark in movies again. This time BMW, who supplied one of their 1200 machines for the Resident Evil 3 pic, featuring The Ukraine's famed actress, Mila Jovovich.
What a cheesy caption o the bike's tailpiece though...:







Anyway, enough 2-wheeled goeters and back to the phone stuff.
There's a pic of the rumoured GPS-enabled Samsung i550 smartphone on GSMarena. The keys on that keypad look surprisingly similar to the P900's:

@ Gucci,
Thanks boet. Wow, looks like there's some serious mansions around your hood there.
Good to see you're enjoying what the N80 has to offer.

It was bound to happen. The K810i will soon be available in red:




http://www.carphonewarehouse.[....]ING_SOON.SONYERICSSON.K810IRED

@ Gucci,
Ya, the N73 does have those, but then again that N80 of yours has wi-fi whereas the N73 doesn't. A lot of the pics I take are trial and error. It's pretty much a case of press n' pray with cellphone snapshots. I always try and focus (excuse pun) on the whole composition seen on the screen and try note the direction and affect of the light source on the object/s being photographed. I'm no pro, but like most things, practise and experience play a major part.

@ brix, Incredible Corruption brought out their weekly flier...Had a 500GB external HDD, USB 2.0 in there for R1999.95...you aint gonna get a better price. I still hate USB concerning speed, but let's face it, you don't get faster and as widely usable. So I would seriously consider this baby if you can't get a better deal going rogue with a HDD and a HDD case.

8,000 songs on 8gb...look, a song averages around 4mb each, so say 2,000 songs, and I will not blink. Even say 4,000 songs, lower quality, and I will still swallow, a little harder, but I will...

Today I so badly wanted my w960i...yep, got my heart set on this baby now. Taking notes on site is not always fun, not on a keypad. Walking around and writing on a w960i would have been so useful. Oh well, when I upgrade next year between Feb and April hopefully it would be widely available, not too common(hate having the same phone as everyone else in SA...want a rather unique handset) and affordable on contract.

So tonight I get Battlestar Galactica season 3...

You're right Francois. That's how I came up with that simple 32 gig figure for 8000 songs, ie. 4mb x 8000= 32000mb= 32 gb. Dunno how that Time journalist got that one wrong.

Hmmm, Lotto... what's that? Never heard of it No, wait... i do recall that we once had something similar, but that was yeeeaaaaaars ago

Gucci, very nice first attempt there bro, keep em coming, you're definitely on the proper track!

It would appear that we may soon have a
33C616809" TARGET="_blank">broadband price war on our hands, if matters continue in the current fashion with Telkom being singled out by all and sundry, including Thabo, as being downright treurig wrt dropping end-user prices... You go Thabz!!!
I'm not superstitious, merely mildly stitious.

LOL, I'll tata ma chances.
To be honest, I really don't bother with the Lotto here either.

The T650i is due to hit Carphone Warehouse stores here on 23 August. Eish, such a nice lookin' phone too...

@ Jojo,
Green T650i your next phone, matey?
