Oi. You... Yes you, EMS! You had a birthday and nary a slice of cake?!

Hope you had a great day, buddy, and that you'll have a fantastic year ahead.

That dude realy is weird, he's even got his own calendar and this statement: 'better addicted to smartphones and gismos than cocaine or sex'. I dont completely agree with that last one hey
He's got a lot of good points though, but i think he's kissing Steve Job and Ive's asses too much and he makes WM sound like such a terrible OS, and then goes on to say the Eseries NOKIA phones are ugly, has ever seen a E71 i wonder, anyway was a interesting piece. . . . . . .of shite he's a Hardcore Apple Mac fanboy no doubt.

Thanks Kryptik!

@HOBBS & GUCCI

I'm actually buying a Mac first week of January, out of curiosity really seeing that Mac users like to bash Vista.

Who knows, maybe I'll love it so much to ditch my DELL. Or there may be nothing to enthuse about.

I guess I'll find out in January.

I used to like reading his articles on smartphones Gucci but ever since the Iphone came along,the man doesnt seem to give any other brand a chance.Hes adamant that the G1 and Android (and whats to follow) is the answer to compete with Apples Iphone.Each to there own hey.

@ Ems, whats ur occupation mate?
@ all, we were in a little car accident today...luckily no-one was hurt, and the car doesnt look bad only a few scratches and a ripped open tire....but the bad thing is that it looks like the power steering is shot!

@ gucci, one car was toeing another when my dad wanted to pass, but the front car decided to turn but the one being toed didnt indicate it... My dad just swayed out in time to avoid a headon collision, but the car still got connected on the side next to me and ripped the tire, and also collided with the trailer a bit... My dad decided to not lay a charge because both of the drivers didnt have licenses and they were towing with a rope, which is illegal, and they wouldnt be able to pay for the damage... Im just glad its all over and that nobody got hurt at all!

Eish JC, sorry to hear of your misfortune, dude. Glad that everyone emerged unscathed though.

Saw an old lady flipping a taxi driver the bird today. LOL, wish i could've captured the moment, she was so irritated with the dude's driving that she let rip with a few choice words and the royal salute.

Eish, who would've imagined that Subaru would ever pull out of the WRC?!

A day after Suzuki also pulled out of the World Rally Championship...
