Where's my Psion Revo with 3G, WiFi, Colour Screen, microSD slot and Quad-band mobile phone features?
I loved my Psion Revo. Fantastic device. Still like my iPhone a lot but it's not a patch on my faithful old Revo which still gets used though infrequently now.
Why can my sad old Sony mobile (and even older Motorola V3 etc.) use any mp3 I like for ringtones/alert tones etc but my new whizzy iPhone can't? WTF? Yeah, yeah I know I can edit it, convert to AAC then rename etc. etc. but honestly what a palaver compared to my old mobile.
I had a DAB for a week and returned it. I listen mostly to Radio 4 and on FM it's in stereo and top quality, however via DAB it was 80kb/s and mono ffs!
DAB is a step backwards.
Listening to radio on Freeview is much better quality wise but not many (any?) Freeview boxes have a display that allows you to see what station you're listening to without the telly being on...
:-(
I'm sticking with FM and recording Radio7 using a PVR, until the quality of DAB improves.

Flagstone HDDs anyone?
Flagstone HDDs, rock solid but very pricey and users can still leave a post-it note with password on it stuck to the laptop lid... :-/
Impressed
Wow! I'm impressed with the commentators here. Hurrah that the blogger warned BDJ about the Mail [spit!] getting closer.
OTSO Symbian...

MP3 ringtones/txt alert tones etc.

DAB sounds crap
That's why I use FM.
Also DAB reception is piss poor where I live which isn't in the sticks (Southampton).
:(
