 P1i night pic, taken close to the restaurant that we ate at last night, by Lakeside Shopping Centre, right opposite the local Spur.
'Old Orleans' is a floating pseudo Mississippi paddlesteamer-type restaurant, permanently moored on the lake.

Bran, if you'll pm your contact details to me i'd be happy to post some simcards to you care of the Protea Hotel, mate. Prepaid vouchers are freely available, and once you've loaded a prepaid voucher it's as easy as dialling *111# to convert some of the prepaid amount into a data bundle.

thanks to all,
amawanqa OK, I'll buy a SIM in store, no problem. My Nokia is not locked, our operator, Orange doesnt lock the phones, but the second one in Slovakia, T-mobile does ...

@ Branimir,
Wow, some stunning SA wildlife pics on your Opera blog!
Nice close-up of a 'kudu' too. So easy to identify with those spiraling horns.
I hope that you have another amazing trip to SA.
Just be aware that there are currently frequent power cuts (electricity), due to too much demand and not enough power stations able to cope with the demand. I guess not too much of a problem if you're going to be out amongst wildlife most of the time, but just to take that into account as well...

@ Branimir,
I'm sure the other guys around here can give you some info about other possible accommodation.
@ Jojo,
LOL yeah, knew you'd like that theme.
BTW, you should've been accompanying Li-Lo last week...she needs someone to ensure that she doesn't get too embarrassed...although with Li-Lo, you're kinda not sure if this was intentional...
Taken with the P1i, from one of the local newspapers:
...and even a Sith Lord like Darth Vader has to have an armed escort when drawing money from a cash machine/ ATM these days, LOL:

Another P1i pic:
Was hoping for another bril sunset, but dark clouds closing in and jet vapour trails littered a the sunset scene tonight.
@ Hobbster,
Glad you like the new theme.
Might be too much if both display/theme screenshots and blog are the same dark hue/s, methinks..

Eish, quiet around here today. Where's everybody?
Anywayz, doom n' gloom article about huge Motorola losses, care of www.theregister.co.uk :
'Moto phones in a billion dollar loss Woes continue
Despite a new CEO, there are no signs yet of a turnaround for Motorola. The company's mobile phone division recorded a shocking quarter, with the unit's revenues down 38 per cent year-on-year, losing $388m along the way. Motorola's mobile division recorded a $1.2bn loss in 2007.
The mobile phone business netted $4.8bn, shifting 40.9 million handsets. For the full year, mobile revenues were down 33 per cent to $19bn.
Overall, the company made a Razr-slim profit of $51m for the final quarter of calender year 2007, on net sales of $9.6bn, down from $623m net income and $11.79bn revenue a year ago.
Performance was helped by Home and Networks earning $192m net income on revenue of $2.7bn - with greater sales but lower profits than a year ago. The enterprise mobility division, buoyed by the acquisition of the Symbol business, rose to $2.1bn sales and $451m net income.
The company spent $557m in the quarter buying back its own shares. Motorola said it expects the grim news to continue, with a loss projected for Q1 2008.'

Ya, I wonder how close Samsung is to overtaking Motorola, as regards market share.

Was very foggy again this morning. Taken from the top floor at work:
