P1i pics taken at Kew Gardens, near Heathrow Airport, yesterday. The place is the UK equivalent of Cape Town's Kirstenbosch.

Experimenting again, LOL:

I see that fatreg is after a Nokia 7600 a.k.a. the 'tape measure phone.'
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=185003

The one I've got is as-new, but I just can't see myself parting with it yet. It's so unique (looks-wise) and its very off-beat appearance intrigues me.
It's probably one of the worst keypad layousts to sms with, the menus are extremely retro-boring in appearance and of course the VGA cam obviously isn't up to much, and it's a bit bulky with such squat dimensions.

But as I've referred to, these aren't the reasons that I've kept the phone.

So the game ends with Spain scoring their 3rd goal and once again I think they didn't deserve to win. Nice one to Bafana...

There's a huge debate on the BBC's 606 forum, about Schalk Burger's gouging incident, Bakkies Botha's shoulder charge and Peter de Villiers' post-match comments:

@da wanqa: Been following the 'debate' on 606 and for the most its been whingeing from the Lions supporters. A victory over 14 men would've been hollow indeed for most fans, not to mention players, but not to the clowns on 606.
I see they've closed down the discussion on Div's latest tutu comment on Schalk's ban.
Enough about rugby, hope everyone is good, strong and healthy. Me, I'm still trying to choose a phone to replace this POS LG...more about that later.

@ da brixsta:
Eish, doesn't sound like you'll be in a hurry to buy another LG, mfowethu.
Have you short-listed a possible replacement yet?

@da wanqa: Right now I'm probably looking at the X1i most favourably...its on special at Vodashop, something like R300/month on a two year BusinessCall contract with no pay-in. Works out nice considering that my bill is around R600/month. I also like the Symbian phones but the question will always be which one.
OT: I see Saru and Div have done a backtrack after the public relations storm his comments on Schalk Burger caused.
