Thanks boet. The Swartland really is stunning this time of the year. It seems hard to take a bad pic amongst all that natural beauty and scenery, even with a cellphone.

But yeah TeenInvader, practise does indeed help and taking a good few pics at each place helps to select a really worthy pic or two, while experimting with some of the settings.

More P1i pics, no prizes as to where this is, LOL:

I agree - great pics!

@X10 owners - anyone on sofware version 026 that is also getting the wifi bug? (lose network signal and the wifi signal also drops)

It is driving me batty, but going back to 024 was impossible due to the yellow-triangle brick so I did the local OTA update and ran the one-click-root which worked better than the old root method on the new software.

Let me know what version you guys are running and what your experience has been.

Thanks Dabangg, and welcome to the SA mobile discussion thread.

I'm also looking forward to the market release of the N8, but still haven't completely made up my mind as to what will be my next phone..
