I'm typing this on my Android tablet ... well, typing is too generous a word: it implies I'm making rapid progress for a start, which I'm not.

I remember the day I saw an iPad for the first time. It was on Waterbeach station and I was setting out on one of my "50 at 50" trips. Two young nerds were getting very excited over something and when I asked they showed me.

I have talked here before about my struggle with my Samsung i8910 phone and how I really wasn't getting on with it, especially doing data entry via the touch screen. As a result I has concluded that I probably needed a phone with a physical keyboard. Well things have moved on. read more ...

I've seen a couple of postings recently talking about whether touch screen really is better than a keyboard for a phone: this one on Nokia Conversations and this one on
All About Symbian. It's confirmed my suspicions about my recent purchase of a Samsung i8910 HD. read more ...

As I'm suffering another bloody migraine today and so not getting any useful work done I thought I'd wibble here as I'd not done so for a while. Apologies in advance for any typos. I'll re-read this later and fix. read more ...

I've had this Acer netbook for a couple of weeks now and fiddled about with it and so it's probably time to review where I am with it. ... read more ...
