Just got back from watching Old Dogs and 2012 with some buds. Old Dogs was kinda funny, just a nice: "haha!" here "hahaha" there film ,haha!
2012 was good, some parts very predictable and cliche. At the end though there is a couple of lines that made/will make all South Africans laugh,when they mention the now highest point of the world in the film,and where they are headed to land  all i gota say is we can relax.  . It does make you wonder a bit of how we would handle such a large scale crisis if such a thing would ever happen.
Also i noticed it seems to be a SONY pictures film, perfect opportunity for SE  to advertise Satio,Aino,Yari, X2 and the X10, but what phones were there? M600 GALOUR! You'd swear we were back in 2006 cause the M600 got LOADS of screen time,others were W950 and P990, WTF? Also think i saw a W595 but thats all,realy strange,but anyway good film,worth a watch if you can live with all the cliche BS it has,found myself rolling my eyes and losing interest here and there.

Nice GUCCI,
Can't wait to see 2012, I think what makes it predictable is the fact that it was directed by the same guy who made the day after tomorrow and independence day, so you kinda know where it's headed. Wonder why thus guy is so obsessed about the end of the world...
But I'm looking more forward to Invictus, think you all know that by now...
Some dude was complaining about the international stars taking our SA roles, wtf, it's their money...

Well that makes a lot of sense Gola, cause a lot of the things that happen realy do remind me of Independence Day and Day after tomorrow, lol ye realy weird how that dude is obsessed with the world ending,but i do think 2012 is going to have a much larger impact than Day After Tomorrow, as far as ive read scientists arent completely sure what an alignment of the planets would do as the last time it happened humans werent around lol, i might be wrong,fell asleep while reading about it. 
Saw the full ad of Invictus last night and im definetly looking forward to it now.

I would like to see both invictus and 2012, but if i have to chose i would rather see invictus...

Interesting thing is, if I'm not mistaken, the Mayans were first to figure that out... Guess we'll find out if we still alive, good thing is that it would have been after 2010
Rhino
Congrats boet, 
I could do with a new notebook...
Falcon
Thanks, so far so good, just a few features missing from the normal dumb SE phones. But the transition for you from the 5800 should be smoother...
Got some few quirks though, like: the music doesn't carry on playing after taking a video, but trivial stuff though. I'm sure can be fixed with a simple firmware upgrade...

Just landed in Ape Town an hour ago, and then my Dad had an accident with the Honda Accord we hired right in the Avis car lot, lol, will post pics later, they've given us a new BMW 320i though, as it seems the Honda might have been damaged by who ever used it before. Either way,what a way to start on our way towards Paarl now, going to Boschemeer or somethin like that.By the way saw the stadium as we were about to land, WOW!  looks fantastic with Table Mountain and the whole CBD there behind it, couldn't take a pic,phones were off.
Congrats on the lappie Rhino and the TB of mem!
Nice! Falcon you a Weezy fan?
Gola
Hahaha! True that, let me live up until the end of 2010,after that me no care!

lol GUCCI, im guessing your dad is alright, im glad...
all
just got back from watching invictus, cool movie. a must see for everyone-i'll even pay for the tickets so that bafana bafana can watch it. but i doesnt top distric 9 in my books... great acting by our actors, not too sure if matt damon was totally into his character, but not bad with the accent. I still don't think freeman looks like madiba. Noticed a couple of goofs...
fogot to mention: the first 45mins or so was honestly boring with some very long scenes and 'soliliques'-all this changed though...

Taken from The Register: This could get naaasty, LOL:
'Apple responds to Nokia lawsuit, in kind...
My patents are bigger than your patents
Apple has filed a countersuit to Nokia's, alleging that Nokia is infringing its patents rather than the other way round.
In the suit, as reported by All Things Digital, Apple claims Nokia is infringing 13 of Apple's patents. Nokia is only claiming the iPhone infringes 10 - but the number of patents isn't important here, what matters is the amount of money that both companies are prepared to hand over to the lawyers before an agreement is reached.
It will probably will come down to some sort of out-of-court settlement, though not until a few dollars have been spent narrowing down the patents to those that can't be dismissed as obvious or irrelevant.
Nokia's patents are pretty low level: signal quality, creation and encryption of data channels and so forth. We don't have a list of Apple's patents yet but they are likely to be concerned largely with the touch interface to which the iPhone owes much of its success.
Once each company has denied infringing anything, accused each other of wasting the court's time, and handed over inordinate amounts of money to litigation lawyers, they'll decided whose pile of patents is bigger and pass over an undisclosed amount of cash.
But that's a long way off - we're only in the opening salvos of what promises to be an entertaining spectacle for 2010.'

What they need is a consortium of anonymous buyers *hint- SAMD Thread members* to stage a hostile take-over of both brands so that we can knock some heads together and get them to toe the line.
