iPhone hangover sweeps the world…

December 4th, 2008 Pete

The world has slowly begun to wake up from the Apple party with a severe case of iPhone hangover. People are realising that the device fails to do many of the things they would expect a smart phone to do (or even some things a basic mobile could do). Many are starting to wonder why they bought a device that simply doesn’t deliver to do what the flashy marketroid ads said it could do.

Article at Apple Insider: Apple argues only a fool would believe its iPhone 3G ads

Simple answer: they were lied to.

Pheasant Coucal photos added to gallery

June 22nd, 2008 Pete

Today in the garden, I noticed a strange bird so got my camera and started taking some photos of it. Turns out to be none other than the Pheasant Coucal. The colours I believe are non-breeding colours, as during the breeding season it will look more black around head, chest and tail like the images of it displayed on this page.
