Happy New Year everyone.

Inspired by the W810i World Tour thread, I thought I'd send my V800 on a tour of NZ Esato Members. If the thread is successful perhaps I'll extend it offshore but for now I'd like to start small.

The idea is to send the V800 to Esato members where they live and for them to take a pic of the phone or with the phone in local settings that they regularly visit or locations that sum up their town/city.

As it's New Years Day and a holiday weekend until Tuesday I'll take and upload one or more photos each day until I send the phone to the next member, Muhammad Oli. It's important to keep the thread moving by uploading photos so at least 1 pic per 2 days is necessary to maintain momentum. Let's hope it works!

Here are some pics taken in Auckland city on New Years Eve:


And here is one taken today to sum up Auckland, the 'City of Sails'.

This is taken on Tamaki Drive, a well known place for cyclists as well as tourists and beach-goers. I cycle here often.

Enjoy!

PS: The phone will travel with the deck chair pictured, a charger and a 512MB MSPD. I may include a disconnected SIM card if necessary as the phone won't function without a SIM.

Concrete Jungle/Northwestern Motorway heading into the city. I travel this twice a day to drop my girlfriend off at work.

Nice shots, carkitter. I'm looking forward to this little tour.

The V800's camera is showing its age quite a bit though, I must say!
