Thursday, May 15th, 2008

At the weekend I decided to get an Asus Eeepc. It was not a totally on the spot purchase, I had been thinking of getting one for a while but never had the money before but now I do, so I did

Microsoft have released a much improved version of their live search for windows mobile devices.  Amongst the usual search options is now a voice activated search.  You enter your location and then speak the name of the company you wish to look up.

O2 XDA Mini S Phone/PDA

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

My brain dropped a clanger yesterday and decided it wanted a combined phone and PDA instead of seperates.  Even more of a clanger was that it decided it wanted to move to a contract phone.
