surprised that the Sony a900 doesnt do video recording, something that its competitors (D90&5D II) do. also missing some other features :(

@mjasay i know of several companies that thought temporarily about moving to Unbreakable, but decided not to for the reasons you mention

@mjasay the bulk of them just dont trust Oracle, and are even assessing alternatives to the Oracle apps they have in place

god i wish i had an artistic bone in my body, just a little one would do. trying to create a selection of logos and failing, badly

The VAIO P has a fantastic screen and pretty damn good keyboard. the nipple is actually very usable and the whole setup works superbly well

@jimmac who was the tutor and who was the student? I had a palaeontology lesson from my 5yr old, when i double checked facts he was spot on
12:22
according to the official sony blog the VAIO P has builtin GPS http://is.gd/lzpO - that's the only mention of it tho. good if true

@sil maybe you should invoice them £50 as an overpayment fee and £10 for sending them a letter. Let them taste their own medicine!

Dear Mono hackers, any chance of porting mono to Symbian S60 please? I could really do with some of those sexy & functional apps on my phone
