Yep, it still needs a lot of work, I was one of the thousand who were trialing the private Beta, and the only difference I see between yesterday's public release and the Beta is the Bolt Browser icon, the rest is pretty much how it was in beta.

Hi Guys 
Yip, I'm still breathing, my almost 2 year old Satio on the other hand is barely keeping up. The alarm clock "forgot" to ring this morning.
Hope everyone is still well...
Quite embarrassingly, I think this is my first post here this year, but i could never forget Esato. In my abscence from Esato, I've become quite the Apple fan, pretty sad news the other day about Steve though, still can't believe it.

Great to see you back around these parts Gola!
Where have you been hiding bro?
Will you be leaving your Satio for a iPhone4S? Apple have come a long way, to think how crappy the camera is on the 3GS is and what a giant leap they made from that in the iPhone4.

Not quite, Hobbs. It is as slow as hell! I realised yesterday that I am actually paying Vodacom for something I don't use, I stopped using my 9700 a long time ago. I decided to check whether we we affected over here yesterday. Damn!

Hey Hobbster,
You watching the Proteas..? Eish, 3 wickets in one over..  Too much work left till the end to try and get a decent score, and now things are falling apart like a cheap watch... again. Dammit! I really wish I had more faith in them..

Haha, not really, just cultofmac.com, nothing's quite like Esato though.
I'm not ready for the limitations of an Iphone yet, though I do want one badly. I have never looked back since I got a M ac, now PCs look ancient. I know iOS will be just as great. I'm loving my Mac, I guess that's why I was saddened by Steve's passing, true genius. I think it's going to be hard for someone to match him, props to the next guy who does.

It's always good to be back, I've been around, it's been a tough year, working and doing my final year - can't say neither are going very well though ( i missed this smiley lol)
How things on your side?
I'm afraid I'll have to stick with my Satio, if only the announced iphone was iphone 5 not a slight speed bump, would've sold one of my lungs.
Lol, that 3gs camera was a waste of time, but I seem to be less concerned about the camera quality of phones lately, cos I don't take as many photos with my phone any more.
I was expecting that you'd have the GS2 by now ? ? ?

Nice, I'm tempted to go back to v4 or maybe just try Z's ROM as i simply can't stand this ROM anymore, its laggy and eats battery like crazy, Wolfbreak always starts off great then his ROMs go down the toilet, in v4 I never even gave a though to battery life unless I was test I g an app.
Gola
Eish, at least you'll be done by end of this year, when are your final exams?
I'm awesome as always, getting ready for my final exams for the year which begin next friday, so trying hard to go easy on the gadgets but that's clearly not happening. 
Cant blame you, hopefuly Apple don't disappoint next year.
Lol, I wish I had a Galaxy S2, I got the Galaxy Tab10.1 though so I've been enjoying Android on dual core for a while now, in december I may get a Sensation XE Beats audio if the Nexus Prime isn't here by then or maybe even a GS2 but I'm just not convinced by its screen Res especially after seeing the Android Ice Cream Sandwich leaked vid, we'll see.

Did you watch Top Gear last night? BMW 1series M made mince meat of the Porsche Cayman R and Lotus Evora  that car is sex on wheels!

gola enjoy the mac.great machines they are.i enjoy my windows 7 ultimate.does the job pretty well for me.try to enjoy work and good luck on your final year.
tsepz having xrecovery makes switching between roms so so easy.so i say download z's rom,fire it up,if you dont like it,switch back to wolfbreaks v4 (quite a few people feel the same way you do.i never tried his v4 rom so dont know how good it is).I'm just waiting for the bugger z to get back from wherever the hell he has gone and update his rom.(u give these devs donations for a new phone and what do they do,go on holiday to the caribbean. )
dups ok,almost back up and running.how long is your 9700 contract still running for?

@Tsepz_GP
No, I didn't watch that. That 1 M is potent I tell you. It is practically an M3 in a smaller package, makes me wonder how the next M3 is going to be like.
By the way, BMW are unveiling the new 3 series today. I actually have seen the car about two years ago. My cousin worked for Siemens at that time and had German colleagues who went back home during the December holidays and came back with this German magazine with all the upcoming German cars.
The book was in German but they had all the upcoming BMWs, Audis, VWs and Mercedes Benzs. The new 3 series is a beauty of car. I aslo like the upcoming Z10 in there. As for Audi, they all looked the same, it was difficult for me to tell the difference. I like Mercedes' design strategy, they make their cars look different to each other unlike Audi and to an extent BMW. I like BMW but their cars are now almost like Audi, the 5 series is a smaller 7 and the upcoming 3 is even a smaller 7 but a very sexy one compare to the two big brothers.
@Hobbs
I took the 9700 last year so I am about 5 months away from upgrading. I am going Android next year, no two ways about it. I hoped for the iPhone 5 this but the 4S is small for my liking. I need a 4.3'' to 4.5''. I am still going Blackberry with Cell C as soon as QNX is ready and phones running it are released. I am quite impressed by Cell C's prepaid offerings since I ported to them. I gues I will be converting to contract next year over at Cell C.
