…that happened to me once
Why I Bought An iPhone
Monday January 21st 2013, 7:04pm

So I finally bought an iPhone It’s the iPhone 5, in white, 32GB, and it’s my new favourite thing in the world. I know what you’re thinking. It’s probably something about all those episodes of Tech It Or Leave It that you’ve listened to, with me banging on all about the things that are wrong [...]

More on the iPhone 5
Thursday September 13th 2012, 2:47am

Couple of corrections from my last post… I said that the Huawei Ascend P1 was thinner than the new iPhone. I was wrong. It’s actually the Huawei Ascend P1s that’s thinner than the new iPhone. While the Huawei isn’t available in the US for a couple of months, it has been on sale in Asia [...]

The iPhone 5

Let’s Talk About The Galaxy S3
Friday May 4th 2012, 7:23pm

Ooh, but I do like it. In my opinion, the best Android phone available at the moment. I say this not having used one, or the closest competitor, the HTC One X. So what’s it like? There’s a smashing Super AMOLED HD screen, 4.8″ and 720p resolution. I expect it to be at least as good [...]

I got another call from Three today. Following yesterday’s phone call where I spoke to technical support, and they escalated my problem to the higher technical support level, I didn’t expect to have to go through exactly the same experience again today.

The lady I spoke to on Friday called to see if my issue had been resolved. Maybe there were some crossed wires there. Either way she called. Unfortunately I had to tell her that my issue had not been resolved and that I had been told it would never be resolved. She said “Oh”, there [...]
