  1. US Problem only? on What's the Problem With iPhone 3G Reception? · · Score: 1

    Although the keyboard issue worries me as even the one in the 02 store was lagging (ive just ordered one of ebay :S),I think the signal problem is down to those countries who have younger 3G networks.

    3G has been around in the UK for quite some time, and my mates who work in 02 have not had a complaint about 3G reception. Although I'm inclined to believe that the carriers in the states' are exacerbating a problem with the iphone

    Now Ive just gotta hope that my unlocking procedure works, as 02 sucks balls.

    If you are going to be typing this letter, could you possibly send me a copy? I wish as well to foward it to my local MP, and feel that i would be able to get a few signatures on the letter to support my own. Thanks in advance.

    Not quite sure if its your views but...

    Echoing other comments seen around the web...

    • Holy crap, look at all that clutter! Icons everywhere!

    I belive that the clutter works well, if its properly organised, and is easy to search, then its no problem, it just makes it far easier to use with multi touch based devices

    Not only that, but none of the icons have text in case someone forgets what one of the thousand icons means.

    im with you on that one, but i think its (again) based on searching through content with an engine as opposed to manually, so it makes sense to remove clutter

    What the heck is up with that 3-D mouse? Is Mozilla supposed to invent that?

    , yh wtf is that?, the whole experience only seems to work properly and quickly, if its touch based

    or maybe a regular mouse might (just) cut it

    Isn't this just a fancier way to copy-paste a link over Skype and initiate a voice chat with them?

    yh pretty much, except its streamlined, and doesnt need the reciever to follow the links, its right there for them

    This can't possibly just be a Mozilla project. You'd need a whole new OS!

    i think it hints much more toward the whole web 2.0 experience.

    there almost is no OS because everything is web-based

    Radial menus may work sometimes, but four unlabeled cloverleaves with 5 tiny unlabeled dots that don't reveal their function unless you hover over them?

    i agree, the way foward is for them to be mainly adaptive, and symbolised or named

    So theres my 50p's worth. With a decent team of developers, it could actually happen. but imagine the RAM needed for all that stuff...

    All we need is a new Olympic Event -- Tank Pulling. See it's a "sporting event" and I'm sure every foreign reporter could get the parallels. (We may even get some highly memorable "parody" stills.)

    --The FNP

    or, the "Tank Face Down"

    attire is obviously a suit and briefcase...

    how long will YOU last?

  5. NEWS FLASH: CHINA LISTENS TO WORD on China Does U-Turn, Lifts Ban On Websites · · Score: 1

    See what a little pressure does to a country in the spotlight.

    all we need now is some way to make the Tiananmen Square "incident" essential to reporting on the games

    maybe that will count for something against the indoctrination of the chinese people

  6. Politics. on UK P2P Fight Brewing · · Score: 1

    is the answer. Get onto your local MP. I did have have a really insightful comment, but just reloaded the page accidently and its gone, that and being a noob and not knowing how to paragraph (please help) i just posted this.
