Ok I can not express my displeasure strong enough... this is becoming a farce...
I picked the N900 up, was glad to have the smart phone back it makes life for me a lot easier, went through set everything up again... battery was dieing so I charged it over night, took it off in morning, full battery, received 2 text messages over the space of about 3 hours... battery dead. (that's with nothing on, no wifi, no blutooth, no Internet, no vibrate... absolutely nothing)
Ok, so I took a deep breath and emailed mobiles co uk, and explained my displeasure again, especially as Nokia has had this phone more than me over the last 4 months. Got a prompt reply saying, tough basically. They sold me the contract but it is nothing to do with them speak to CPW (sound familiar?) Spoke to CPW who said all we will do is send it back to nokia for repair. Its down to mobiles co uk if they will replace it.
So guess what? Monday morning when I am back around, the phone is heading off to Nokia once again...
I'm actually to annoyed to write this, so will replace it with an update later... GRRRRRR
DO NOT BUY N900 or ANYTHING from mobiles.co.uk
So hello.... :o) Haven't blogged in just over a week, and feel I have to before I lose some of the ideas I wanted to blog about lol...
Firstly the geek stuff....
The new tablet PCs/macs OK, so we have ipad from apple... looks good :-) Although if I hear, theres an app for that I think I would throw it across the room... and the courier from Microsoft... to be fair I haven't been hands on with either of them, and I am not overly sure of the release dates either, except they will be some time this year... in fact I haven't even done my normal geek research into the specs... in fact I just looked at the pictures, read through a few articles and then looked at them again... The design on the apple is almost futuristic and it is amazingly light and thin... it reminded me of a film I had seen recently, think it was 2012 where the crew members are walking around with these tablets reading instructions off of them... Nice touch... However the iPad is terrible. No multitasking, no camera, no expandable memory, no USB port, no Flash, no stylus. If I wanted an iPod Touch, I would have bought one by now. Apple had the opportunity to really corner a market in its infancy but they failed.
