What I really wanted from T-Mobile
The other day I finally got round to changing my T-Mobile tariff from a £25/mo tariff which covers the cost of a phone, to a £10/mo SIM-only tariff (which was reduced to half that for the first nine months, which … Continue reading
Android apps that suck
Of late, I’ve noticed that the Android apps I’ve been using aren’t performing anything like as well as they should be. I got a Samsung Galaxy S phone in May, which I paid up-front for because I couldn’t wait until … Continue reading
New phone
I took delivery of a new phone yesterday — a Samsung Galaxy S. Not the dual-core S II, which was well beyond my price range, but the Galaxy S was pretty much the top of the range until about a … Continue reading
Android: feeling at home, moving on
Last December I wrote about the year I’d had with my Android phone (an HTC Hero, branded a T-Mobile G2 Touch — not to be confused with the G2 that is sold in some other countries which is a re-branded … Continue reading
Android now single biggest smart phone platform
Android Topples Symbian in Q4 2010 These figures show that Android (which includes two variants, OMS and Tapas) narrowly sold more units than any other individual platform for the first time last quarter, pulling ahead of Nokia’s Symbian for the … Continue reading
Review of my 2010
This is, as far as I remember, the first time I’ve ever posted a review of a year to my blog, and that’s probably been because no old year has been as different from the one before it as this … Continue reading
Year of the Droid
I got the phone I started writing this on about a year ago, just before Christmas 2009. It has really changed the way I use my phone and the way I use the net. It’s totally different from any phone … Continue reading
Is the iPhone really a design classic?
London Design festival: Has British design lost its way? | Art and design | The Guardian There’s a feature in today’s Guardian about the Anti Design Festival, which starts this coming Saturday in London and is a response to what … Continue reading
How to upgrade your T-Mobile G2
For months I’ve been hearing that T-Mobile were going to be posting an upgrade to their Android-based G2 Touch phone, which is their branded version of the HTC Hero which was available on every other network last year (it’s now … Continue reading
Android upgrade drama at Vodafone and T-Mobile
BBC News - Vodafone backs down in Android row Vodafone (a major UK mobile phone network) have backed down after pushing what looked like an Android operating system upgrade for the HTC Desire phone, but was in fact a set … Continue reading
Tip for Android owners who use Twitter
Ditch Peep. I went hunting for alternative Twitter clients the other day because I came to the conclusion that Peep wasn’t up to much. It’s terribly slow and unresponsive, selecting a web location in a tweet is hit-and-miss, and one … Continue reading
Thunderbird and Android updates
Thunderbird 3 has been out for a few weeks now, although I’d been using it on Linux since well back in the beta days. It was actually the standard version of the software on Fedora 11, which I was using … Continue reading
Dumping the Droid
I’ve had my T-Mobile G2 (or HTC Hero, for anyone on any other network who might be offered one) since last Friday, and I’ve already had enough. There is a cooling-off period of seven working days, so I contacted T-Mobile … Continue reading
Under pressure: the search for an Android
I am due a mobile phone upgrade next week, insha Allah. I have my heart set on an Android unit, the main manufacturer of which seems to be HTC; the Hero is the best known of them. My service provider … Continue reading
