Came across this new SA blog today about 2 guys trying to set a new SA Hot Air Balloon Altitude record -> Two get very high

Turns out the one pilot is Lev David from East Coast Radio here in Durbz.

Samsung D500

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
Ahh, I love every 2 years, even though its a wait, it means Vodacom UPGRADE Time.
So this year I opted for the new samsung SGH-D500
WOW...Is all I can say. It was a toss up between the Sony Erricsson S700i, I decided to take the D500.
And I'm really impressed. This is one of samsungs first phones with Bluetooth support, and after getitng me a new dongle, It works like a bomb. The only thing that you can't do, is upload Java Games. But I searched far and wide and Im glad to say that I found some real boffin, who decided to share his secret of how to do it.

Still got lots of playing to do, but if I come across anything interesting, I will make sure I blog it first :)

Here's to another 2 years of waiting :)

Bill Gates to get Knighted

Aww, how sweet...
Bill Gates Meets The Queen

NOT !!!

I still wonder what the use of this is, except he can't even be called SIR in the states, and can only use the title K.B.E. (Knight Commander of the British Empire) in the states.

Shame...whats the use dork ?
