i'll grab my proper camera out and take a picture a bit later

Here's the official link

I can get out my camera and snap a pic if people want.

as far as I am aware there is no chip currently avaialble.

I bought a sony ericsson w800i the other day, and I must say that I'm extremely impressed with it, the camera is awesome (2 megapixel) and the external speaker is actually half decent (meaning that mp3 ringtones actually sound somewhat like the original)
The screen is one of the best i've seen (it's not the biggest but definatly one of the clearest)

There is only one real flaw I've found so far and that the fact it looks kind of stupid (it's orang(ish))

The walkman feature also seems pretty good but I haven't used it much (I already have an ipod) but for those that are interested in that sort of stuff it has a 512mb memory stick in the box and 32mb built in.


Strongly recommended

ps, to those that know it's virtually the same as the k750i (except for the software) but they don't make the k750i anymore.

Here's a sample picture I took with the camera

That's a view outside my bedroom window

i've had to use flash for some school work lately, and I'm crap at it so I don't like it much

I'd take it to the police station, and let them track down the owner (done it a few times for wallets and such - usually get a phone call from the person that lost their wallet saying thanks for handing it in)

adding to the list of problems

My brothers V3's camera doesn't work at all period S: (and never has)

I should mention that my father used the airport the other day and confirms that the shops are all open again

6+ hours a day

Most torrent sites should have some available

180 Million maybe higher, depends also how accurate the thing is (the past figures aren't very reliable)

It didn't look like the building was in too crash hot shape before hand either,

Haven't been to many of those airports but reading around the net syktrax (the people who publish the list) aren't exactly the most reliable source, very bias apparantly.

Sydney doesn't deserve to be in the top 10 either its clean and everything but has a really really really bad layout, you have to catch a bus to get from international to domestic,
Melbourne on the other hand you don't, its just as clean but doesn't have you catching a stupid bus :s

Singapore Changi is ok, Dubai airport is over-rated though

Here's a graph made by a local telco that should give you an idea of the different speeds associated with the different technologies and the attenuation after a certain distance.

Don't worry about "telstra" there just one of there competitors :-)

Shouldn't that read fastest residential connection

ADSL2+ I'm guessing (max of 24mpbs depending your distance from the exchange)
My ISP announced new plans that it costs an extra $10 to go to 20mbit (from 10mbit) but its probably not worth it

one of my friends got his hands on one (works at a phone shop) and he said it was really flimsy.

He thinks that there is going to be a lot of warranty jobs on them.

It probably just comes down to a profeciency thing, I'm much more comfortable using it.

I hate to say this to all the mac fan's out there but the ibook g4 is SLOW, bounce bounce bounce goes the firefox logo (the machine has a 1gb of ram and is plugged into the wall :S)
20 seconds later it starts (and there is almost no custom programs on the machine)

Home/backyard networking isn't really good enough in today's world. You need real experience :S
I've been looking as well but I don't have any official experience yet (I have CCNA though )

I don't personally like keynote, I just don't seem to be able to make anything look remotely professional out of it (it all looks like it was made by a 5 year old)

K700i is currently AUD$350
k750i is currently AUD$650

AUD = Australian Dollars
Rougly $1 = 100 naira

I wouldn't buy one.

You'd just be paying a 200% premium on all your hardware.

Added to the fact I don't like mac OS X (my brother has an ibook) I really don't see myself buying one.

Congratulations Nigeria
3 Medal's already! (Gold, silver and bronze)
I expect more from track and field events :-)

Best medal tally site i've found is

I've watched a fair bit on TV as well, the sprints were really exciting tonight in the semi final there were 3 false starts (meaning the removal of 2 of the people!)

If any of you see the shooting events on the tv thats in my area.

Probably the biggest reason behind the fact you can't drive internationally with it is because a lot of people haven't got there liscence honestly, so they have no real way of measuring your ability.

I got a catalogue in the mail today, apparantly you can pick up the ROKR for $187

Apparantly the 100 song thing was put there to protect apple's other products.

Here's a list of externally issued liscences you can drive on in Australia

Obviously you need to obey by our laws (including alcohol etc)

Here's some of my favourite pictures I took while in the UK :-)

http://www.syncerror.com/photos/henge.jpg Stone Henge

http://www.syncerror.com/photos/DSC_0109.jpg A garden at Hampton court (my favourite picture I've taken in a long time)

I've been to Paris and loved it,

You hear all the time that people in Paris are very rude but I didn't find that at all (though I did see it happen to some American's but they deserved it, basically expecting everyone to speak english to them and where abusive when they didn't)

Very nice place but wouldn't want to live there (too expensive!)


Euro Disney was a good day out also (don't know what it was about me but I was always being called to the front of queue's )

It's nice to see some of that stuff happening but I can't help think that the money could be better spent.

I don't know about you guy's but I don't go to other countries to spot out things the same as where I live, kinda pointless I think

Eg, When I was in Paris I didn't go looking for an Australian restruant (though I did see one lol)

Interesting theory.
