Blackberry Bold 9700
For full disclosure, I've been a Nokia fanboy for many years, in fact I have not owned one non-Nokia phone. I've played with a number of other phones, but never for more than a few days. But in my opinion, Nokia's UI is getting more stale than last week's stock at your local greengrocer.
My last phone was the E71, which I absolutely loved, so I will draw some comparisons.
Sleek packaging, a BLACK box, half the size of the usual nokia boxes, but with the same amount of stuff in it.
Switching it on and starting the configuration was easy enough, it guides you through the initial parts, to the point where you can use the phone, but no more.
“Green” tax – just an excuse?
I have no idea what the government is thinking with the proposed "green" tax on new car sales.
Personally I don't think that it makes sense.
It looks like the government is just trying to appease a few activists with this tax. Or, and probably closer to the truth, adding just another tax for the few to support the many. Your guess is as good as mine.
Why tax new vehicles?
Mazda 5 – My first impressions
Buying a car is expensive nowadays, and I did a lot of homework before deciding on the Mazda 5. My reason for deciding on it was that it had the most space in the third row of seats out of all the MPVs I tested, but was still small enough for my wife to drive, seeing that she's moving up from a Peugeot 206.
I've had the car for a few weeks now, and overall I'm loving it. There is plenty of space, with two baby seats in the middle row, an 8 year old in the back row, and multitudes of bags and prams in the boot. Ok, half the boot, seeing the back row of seats fold flat to create the boot, so we have one up and one down to fit the whole family.
