I'm in a foul mood this morning after several Jagermeisters and some beer last night....I was going to buy a 6680 yesterday for good price of R2800 (gave up on the P910i due to anavailability) only to pick up some bug when trying to save items to the memory card when I was playing with the phone so I returned to the guy who was selling me the phone.

I'm so pissed off right now it aint even funny....but I think I'll be patient with my next purchase.

BTW, I'm a great fan of the POP series from Gameloft(my favourite publisher) and can't wait to play this one even though I haven't finished Warrior Within.

I also remember when India were touring SA; It was a ODI, Azharuddin was batting and Klusener came to bowl. He took his run up, fired in a toe crushing yorker and bang !!! Azhar's middle stump lay on the ground broken in two neat peices !!


I have played POP- The Warrior Within many times. Has the new one been already released??

@ BlueQuill,
Yeah,but Mohammed Azharuddin led the side to many victories in the early 90's.Back then,it was a pleasure to watch Ajay Jadeja's athletic performances in the field during ODI's,the opening bowling attack pair of Javagal Srinath and Venkatesh Prasad,Moin Khan's excellent wicket-keeping,Kapil Dev's legendary all-round exploits..hell,the list goes on.
Great to see Anil Kumble still spinning his magic too.

My deepest sympathy, Brix, it's one of those "win some, lose some" things i guess. Chances are it'll be worth the wait for exactly the proper phone for you. @Wanksta, what's the speed of those super- trains? @Blue, that plant which you work at, what's it output per day?

The plant is rated at 390 MW. So the output per day would approximately be 390 multiplied by 24 (MWh)

@ Kryptik,
the Pendolino line of tilting trains belonging to Virgin are governed to 125mp/h (200km/h).

@Blue, the reason why i ask is that there's been some outcry over here at the continued use of fossil fuels, etc. Some areas of SA have frequent power outages, yet the same vociferous opponents of improved power plants are often the biggest consumers of electricity. Go figure.

@Wanksta, i've been reading that the transportation authorities over here ads punting an improved bus system as being viable for the 2010 Cup. Somehow i have my doubts about that. A monorail system was proposed years ago but still has to materialise. The wheels of progress turn rather slowly...

Some pics taken at the International Motorcycle Show in Birmingham today:

Mrs Amawanqa by Yamaha's concept motorbike,the MT-O5,at the motorcycling giant's stand.


Yamaha's wild new 2005 YZF-R6 model,complete with 'you lookin at me?' headlights and ram air induction snout.


American Harley customiser legend,Arlen Ness, had some of his creations on display again at the Carole Nash Insurance stand...






Sorry if I have digressed a bit too far from cellphone stuff here,but you don't see creations like this every day;even if you know jack about 'boneys',it is easy to have some appreciation for pure craftsmanship and attention to detail...

Yeah guys, we've reached another milestone with a lot of diversions on the way to 4000.
I still miss Tahir Ally,786KBR, bradboy, mario2002, rob123, tash, bongzino, slssls and celltech on the thread. Rhino8 and WirelessMonkey occasionally come in to visit but we miss all the different voices.

4000 already? Wow!!! We're ticking along nicely, folks Howz everybody doing on this fine day?

I've got my hands full lately with work/exams and getting my house touched up in preparation for 1st December when the new owners move in. I'm trying to leave it in the same shape it was when it was built... Can't wait to move into my new place. (47 years old!!!) It's got these 15-inch walls, absolutely cool in summer, warm in winter. The lady whom it belonged to has maintained it brilliantly, even to the extent of ensuring the storerooms and granny flat have been painted yearly although nobody's used em in 20 years. I'm planning the layout of my workshop atm, finally going to get started on some woodwork projects.

Thank you Brix! I would come in everyday if stupid Esato works, (I don't even know if this one is going to be posted) I got a new computer iMac G5(but I'm now on my dad's Windows xp) everytime I log on to esato, it logs me out

Cell C has put up a new Mast Tower in Grabouw that looks like a Christmas tree, I hoped it was Vodacom to strenghten their 3G signal here.

Till later, make the most of now
