It was only a matter of time that Nokia's market share would start decreasing with the introduction of S60 on Samsung handsets,the debut of the Iphone and Gphone,RIMS awesome Blackberries and of course HTC rocking out some 'giants'

In the same breathe same goes for the steady decline of Sony Ericsson and Motorola.With these 'new boys' on the block,if you aint producing you are unfortunitely going to go down like the mighty Titanic.

Oasis.Something about that bands arrogance puts me off them,BIGTIME! Liam Gallagher,need I say more.He's brother aint half that band.But he doesnt have the 'Rock n Roll confidence' of Liam that is sometimes needed to front a band.Noel has the musical talent and voice,thats for sure but Liam has the X FACTOR and unfortunitely in the music business these days the X FACTOR alone can take you all the way to the top.Very strange indeed.

Congratulations Bafana Banana (wish they would scrap that name) and start a-fresh.Super Eagles,Indomitable Lions....now thats names to fear.Anyone know the translation for 'The Fearless Warriors' Maybe translated that would roll nicely off the end of the tonque.

Anyway guys have a fantastic day.

It's actually the u20 SA team that won against Nigeria, they are called 'Amajita'. The translation for that is 'The Guys'...

Hobbs,
Iv never liked oasis, i dont know why, they just not my type of music. But who knows maybe they'll be good live. Just like last years coke fest with muse. I hate them. But wow! Live they are really good. And on guitar hero. Lol. Played their 1 song on guitar hero 3, its very fun to play.
Lifes journey is not to arrive at the grave in a well preserved body, but to rather skid thru sideways shouting, HELL YEAH! THAT WAS A HELL OF A RIDE!

Hershelle finally gets a nice big score of 64 and Kallis is not out on 54.Man that guy is a batting machine.A slow batting machine but a batting machine never the less.I played rugby against him when I was at school and let me tell you he wasnt that bad at that eitherSo the the boys are 152 after 25 overs for three wicket.not bad.a win is on the cards i think

Seems like the internet crashed on my side, I can't get streaming audio working(both ABC and SABC) and Cricinfo's site is slow as a mother.

Anyways, Happy New Year to all the folks of SAMD.

Its good NOKIA AND SE are suffering, they need to learn to put better hardware in newer phones, to this day NONE of NOKIA S60s is as good or powerful as the mighty N95 and E90 in both N And Eseries.

I havent taken note of any N or E series phones after the N95 or E90.Thats where it stops for me.KInda interested in the N97 though.Looks nice and of course the 5800.

I Got some news on when Vodacom are getting the 5800.The guy at the shop said they are only expecting it in March.Isnt that when you return to our shores?

LMAO, it's the latter, I'm afraid. Sigh, I wish Hobbster was telling the truth, though.
Yeah I wasn't quite one of the hundreds queueing up outside Nokia's flagship store in central London yesterday morning, LOL.
