Symbian phones, and what's for dinner?

2006, 一月 12 - 21:27 — glee

What is it with these Symbian phones? Or is it just mine? It's clunky, it's slow, it's got a crappy interface ... I do not know just _where_ to start. Oh and buggy too ... Last night I put my phone through the battery charger ... OK ... when I wake up ... it's still charging...!! Low battery!! WTF?!

Ok ... fine. I need to head off to the office so I take my uncharged phone (supposedly) and the charger with me. Subject it to several more hours of charging. WTF??!! Same!

OK. In frustration I reset the phone. Full battery. WTF?!
Look: can we have a phone that just does _NOT_ suck?

You scored as Utilitarianism. Your life is guided by the principles of Utilitarianism: You seek the greatest good for the greatest number.

�The said truth is that it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.�

--Jeremy Bentham

�Whenever the general disposition of the people is such, that each individual regards those only of his interests which are selfish, and does not dwell on, or concern himself for, his share of the general interest, in such a state of things, good government is impossible.�

--John Stuart Mill

I left Sydney just when the race riots were on. Am I supposed to feel good that I'm not missing out on any fun because the WTO riots are just as interesting to watch?

Hrm, we live in interesting times.

(Yes, I am back in HK, for 2 weeks. I don't think I mentioned it anywhere before, the arrangements were rather, er, adhoc, and it wasn't finalized until the very last minute).
