Falcon, ye got similar response at Prodigits,that even SanDisk go corrupt randomly,but ive always had it. W800 had 512mb SanDisk PRO Duo, W900 had 1GB and 2GB SanDisk that it shared with my PSP, N80 had 1GB MiniSD SanDisk, and never had a single problem with them. Ah well, hope my 8GB doesnt corrupt, what heard was that Kingston is the best,but no shop i went to had it,was lazy,went to MTN, Vodashop, and Game.
Anyone else here getting bored of the MNet "tooth fairy" ads? Was funny in the beginning,but they've over done it now, what will never get old is the Heineken ad lol

Hows the 12MP Machine treating you bro? Has SE's PlayNow App Store launched yet or is it the same old PlayNow?

You mean the ad where that guy is licking a bunch of historical landmarks?

So far so good ye, Camera could be more consistent though, but good pics on average otherwise. I'll give it a head on test with a Sony camera and post up the results if I have time. I'm even more impressed with the video capturing quality. Btw, is VGA better than QVGA?
I have no idea with regards to the apps store. Right now I seem to be more hooked on downloading music vids cos I can't get over the media player...

Talking about memory cards, my pc couldn't recognize it after I formatted it, so I just popped it into the Satio and viola...

LOL! Nah thats Foundry i think,interesting ad though,im more of a cider person, so id like to try Foundry. Heineken ad is the one where theres a couple who are showing their friends their new house, the woman shows her friends her Walk-in closet, and the women scream in envy whilest that happens the guy shows his friends his Walk-in fridge FULL of Heinekens, the guys scream and shout like women in a walk-in closet, lol,im sure you've seen it or will see it soon.
Thats great bro,dig that 16:9 pic you took or is it panaromic?
VGA (640x480) is better than QVGA (320x240)
Nice bro,looking forward to that shoot out, the Satio captures some great detail, was impressed by larry68's pic in last month's Cameraphone Comp.
Haha! Was gona ask how good it is at video playback, its chipset can just handle HD videos, but what you might find is the media player may have been limited,either way all you need is 640x360 nHD res vids,and im sure it will manage +30fps fine.
You mentioned a Stand the other day,is it a desk stand like Aino's?
That SE Media player must be awesome, does it have animations in the background? Hope it doesnt lag when multitasking

Lol, oh ya, that's a cool ad... The beer guys are really striving hard to make beer seem cool. Love this one ad where a guy driving with a chick, gets a puncture. And he gets out of the car about to make a phone call for road assistance when out of now where, in the middle of nowhere, this guy in a suit comes along and asks the first guy what he thinks he's doing. blah blah blah and ends up saying he should keep it real, and that he's watching him. I think it's Foundry, pity I've only seen it once...

Great news on the N900, bring Maemo home, by home I mean SAMD
Really don't get why they were not intending on selling it in SA...

Thanks it was panoramic, cool thing is that you only have to press the shutter button once and move the phone so that it takes the other two pics automatically.

The media play only has small white bubbles floating around in the background and new ones emerge where you touch the screen.

Here's how the stand/memory card reader looks... Pretty flimsy though, but hey...



Btw, saw the Money to Blow music video, pretty cool... But that chick in the Weezy verse, the one with the sliver jacket...DANG DUDE !!!!!!!!

Lol,thats the HANSA ad, dam,i watch way too much tv. LOL! Ye they are,il never understand why people like beer so much, taste like bitter water lol.
I think Nokia had doubts about N900 doing well here hey,they must've had loads of people asking why it wasnt coming here.
Nice! Sounds like the K850's media player with those white bubbles,atleast the Satio's hardware can handle that eye candy lol.
Woah! dam it looks so good in Silver, ye i see what you mean,not bad though, atleast it will come in handy when watching movies on that huge screen.
Hahaha! DUUUDE! i couldnt take my eyes off the screen,everytime it plays gota take time to appreciate God's work.
