@jmash: Spoke to someone at Vodashop and they tell me that I could get the M600i on a new Weekender Everyday contract if I paid R600...no beef but I feel it's too much. I might want to take out a new contract on the W850 or just wait and spend the estimated R3000 for the Z610 when it eventually lands here...lots of decisions to make. Strange as it seem I've actually become attached to my N70 with all it's bugs...come to think of it I need to update it's virus definitions.

@ Kryptik, that line brings conjures up memories of Lloyd Christmas's saying (Jim Carrey) in the delightfully purile Dumb and Dumber. 
@ jmash,
LOL, I be wishful wanqa, it would seem. I'd hate to think what the value of an imported Limo-Hummer is; I'm sure that Paul Mashatile could throw a decent party for the same amount of money.

@da wanqsta: Question is, how does one park that thing?
@jmash: They would ask R600 since the M600 is fairly new on the market...in a few months it should be free on a weekender package depending on it's popularity.
Back to wanqsta: Paul Mashatile's submission that he spent a fortune dining friends and hangers-on will probably scupper any political ambitions he had...suprising that the Young Communist League didn't say anything...they're usually quick to condemn Mbeki's officials...maybe they're also craving some of that gravy.

@ da brixsta,
wrt the parking; not my problem..that's the chauffeur's responsibility!
Seriously though, it must be a bloody nightmare parallel parking a conventional Hummer, so I'd hate to think what that 4X4 'Uberlimo' must be like to park, or go round small traffic circles with, like the ones around Welkom and Odendaalsrus.
I've been following some of the back and forth mud-slinging between Mbeki and the Commie comrades; can't help but imagine how Zuma must be lapping up the current tripartite turmoil and flak that Mbeki's receiving...

@da wanqsta: Zuma is not the sharpest tool in the shed...Blade Ndzimande and his ilk are only using the poor man for their own means. Zuma has never espoused socialist economic policies so I don't understand how all the people to the left of Mbeki are actually supporting him.

@ brix, i had to pay in about 600 for my baby. In the beginning it would have been 300, but i waited. Bad move from my side. Just to emphasise that it could go both ways.
10mp. For goodness sake, you can zoom into peoples pores with that! lol! But it will definately push other manufacturers in the right direction if it proves to be popular.

@ brix, lol! Thanx for the update. Me? Chat up a storm in mxit? lol! Well, not directly. I use googletalk during the day, and in my own time i dont really spend more than 30 minutes in the app if i even do log in at all. But yeah, i am always connected at work. Is actually cool, but i have hectic boundaries. If i dont want to chat or am busy i dont chat. Had a fight with a friend two days ago about that. She always sms when i am at work, and after one or two smses i get despondant. I have explained to her a few times, but gee wizz! And she works for our company now, marketing. But yeah, i do put my foot down when things get a bit much.
So with regard to that, what are you guys and girl's chatting habits? Chat client, mxit and sms.

Chatting habits are sporadic at best. I'll pop in on Mxit once per day, usually at night. If there are no messages i hamba straight to Prodigits s60 forum. If there's no eye-catching topic there i'm gone in a flash, off to read the day's news. These days i probably spend a max of 30min on sites other than Esato.
Speaking of Communists, JZ and other creepy-crawlies, one of my favourite quotes is:
"Catch a man a fish, and you can sell it to him. Teach a man to fish, and you ruin a wonderful
business opportunity."-Karl Marx
I'm not superstitious, merely mildly stitious. |

My online habits vary...On my phone it's either esato or BBC, when I do go to prodigits it's usually the sports forum.
When I'm on the PC it's esato and news sites like reuters or google news.

@ Kryptik, my favorite variation of that saying goes like this:
"Make a man a fire and he will be warm for the night,
set him on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life..." - Hitler?
I seem to spend some time on Esato every day, once every few days I go to http://www.theregister.co.uk/ to catch up on everything, and daily I go to hellkom to see if there is anything happening. Other than that, different sites every now and again.
