N-Gage-A-Go-Go (take 2)

After a long night, almost all the N-Gage 2 (sorry, N-Gage QD) info is available on All About N-Gage. I’m off to the Press Launch, all my thoughts will be blogged here and there afterwards. Stay tuned.

No More Allergy

From Vikki:
Eilidh is now officially free of her wheat allergy! :D She’s also evening out a bit in height/weight. In December she was 25lb (91st centile) and 74cm (9th centile) - she’s now 26lb (75th centile) and 84cm (50th centile) so I’m pleased about that.
The dietician was a little concerned about Eilidh’s nutrition though […]

I’m in Shock and Awe at Knoppix

There are going to be a whole load of Tech Heads out there who are pointing and laughing at the screen now, but I’ve just stumbled over Knoppix, and I have to say I’m impressed, and it’s already got me seriously thinking about what OS will go in a second desktop PC in the house.

The N-Gage is a Success… Really

I’ve posted two more articles on Gaming Headlines. The first is a short featurette about the N-Gage and why the networks are going to keep pushing the ARPU driving machine at you. The second is a review of the MMC Game Card Keychain Holder.

Vexed UIQ Quick Progress Update

Finally cracked the menu bug - now when you tap the UIQ menu, it actually shows the menu and performs the action. The beta build of this is now in the hads of the playtesters, and hopefully I’ll get their reports back, polish it over the Easter weekend and relase it to the world on […]

C is for Crow

Vikki got some great wrapping paper for under a pound at the weekend. One of the sheets was an A to Z, which is now happily on Eilidh’s bedroom door (and jpeg’ed to the left of this entry). For some strange reason she’s not happy with a certain letter, but I’m over the moon.
C is […]

Just Read This, It’s Important

Canadians understand…

The Tariff of the Gods

Let me tell you about my mobile phone tariff. It costs me 50p per day (so that’s roughly £15 per month, what looks to be the starting basic price for most monthly tarrifs in the UK). For that 50p, I get 50 minutes. Every day. And once I run out of minutes, calls are 1p […]
