Howzit everyone, hope your all gonna vote tomorrow. Im definatly going to,
Last night i updated my n81's firmware from v20. To v21, my phone became so unstable, apps would just shut down for no reason. Everything was giving me troubles. After i updated it, it kept freezing but the green call key, plus *key, plus 3key formate fixed it, and i updated my friends n81 from v11 to v21 also. He is quite happy with the improvements.
Since sunday iv been at sun city, went there for my parents anniversary, that place is evil. Lol. Gambling is bad. Luckily we came out with more than we went in with. But to get that we lost a bit. Lol, |

Yup, another plug for Facebook there.

Yeah, gambling is something I don't ever want to get into either.

Found this on The Register today. Lighties today, eh? LOL :
'Half of 10 year old kids in the EU have mobile phones, a figure that rises to 95 per cent once they get to 16, but parents still reckon their kids aren't being protected from inappropriate content.
The figures come from the European Commission, which is leaning on mobile operators and member countries to implement controls agreed in 2007. Four countries - Cyprus, Estonia, Finland and Luxembourg - don't yet have "voluntary" agreements requiring operators to control access to adult-orientated material. In those countries that do, only 41 per cent of operators bother checking those measures are working.
In most places, a credit-card authorisation is used to confirm the user is over 18, though that's harder with pay-and-go handsets, especially in countries (including the UK) where no identity (and thus age) check is performed when purchasing a phone. Naming two Pink Floyd albums, while currently effective, is a little arbitrary, and it's hard to find other ways of establishing the age of a customer.
The other problem is the fact that offensive content can equally well come from other users, rather than commercial operators. Purveyors of porn don't generally want under-age customers as they lack money to pay for the content, allaying the concerns of 51 per cent of parents.
Bullying is harder to block, however, so it's surprising to hear that only 49 per cent of parents worry about mobiles being used that way.
There is also the matter of making the network operators in some way responsible for the content they provide, even through a voluntary agreement. Internet service providers have no such responsibility for protecting children, at least not yet, though as the two businesses increasingly blur it will be hard to understand how one can be exempted.'

@ da brixsta:
Did you see Arshavin's 4 (!) goals against Liverpool?  What a match; 4-4 in the end. It'll take a little more pressure off ManUre though.

So the DBZ movie is getting swak reviews...
Watching DBE i can immediately tell the directors and everyone else involved have not watched more than a few episodes of the entire Dragonball series. The characters are only similar in name and the story feels like they chewed it up and spit it out and whatever stuck to the storyboard they went with. I wont ruin the story but its nothing like the anime, as i said before the characters are only similar to the anime by name. It almost seems like they wanted to make this movie as bad and as far away from the original story as they could. The only time an actor or actress acts like their anime counterpart is when they are first introduced speaking mainly about Master Roshi and Yamcha.
For one of the most action packed animes around they sure did the opposite with the movie. I can count the number of fight scenes with one hand and count how long they lasted with two hands. Its pretty pathetic when the first fight scene with Goku and the "bullies" is the best and he never threw even threw a punch. The big screen debut of the Kamehameha is sad and pathetic and all the Ki blasts look like different color fire balls. They don't look pure energy (like they are in the anime) but just like slow motion fire.
I could go on for hours about what they did wrong. If you have never seen the anime series don't watch the movie. The story is probably too confusing for anyone who doesn't know the entire back-story of the anime. The movie only gives you the who and the what but no why. In fact i think why sums up the entire movie. Why did they do this and why did they do that is all i was thinking during the entire movie. At the end of the movie all i could do was ask "Why did they make this movie and who did they make this movie for?" This is not a movie for the fans or anyone who has never seen the anime. It feels like they made this movie for the people who hate the anime.

Ah, who cares, I'm still going to watch it if I have time

As far fetched as this is going to sound, I think these games are starting to get fixed for the sake of entertainment, like wrestling... Nah.
