iPhone 3G

April 3rd, 2009 Apple

Several months after everyone else (and 2 days after it should’ve happened) I’ve got an iPhone 3G. Upgrading was nice and easy, just takes a while to sync 6.9GB of movies/video/apps/data over.

Early plus points, the speaker’s nice and loud, and it’s a bit more comfortable to hold. Downsides are I had to re-arrange my springboard, and I’m not convinced about the warmer displays

My constant annoyances with the Tory’s fucking up of the railway network in the 60s & 80s continues.

According to the Wikipedia page (admittedly not a great source) the West of England main line used to be double tracks but was reduced to single tracks in the 60s! Un-fucking-believable.

I can understand it would be a pain to expand them now if they’d always been single track, but what was the point of making the lines much worse? I wasted so many hours of my life due to that fucking stupidity. Bastards.

Just a test post from the iPhone wordpress app.

  • the other day – my iPhone lands on the pavement, find out I need to wait until April 10th to upgrade to a 3G
  • 3:50 today – text from O2 I can upgrade today
  • 6:00 today – walking into O2’s Basingstoke store, find out I have to do it online
  • 9:00 today – go online to get my new phone, the website texts me my upgrade code. then tells me I can’t do it online. I need to phone them. On an 0800 number, which costs 20p per minute from an O2 mobile…

for the highly treasonous crime of laughing at Bohemian Rhapsody.
