Happy Bday!
And you know what still irks me >.<?
How much they chop out of the simpsons for the local episodes. They cut out alot of the 'riskier' jokes... and when you see em on dvd in their full glory... its just crazy.
I remember the 'bad influence my butt' line from bart in that episode when him and milhouse stop being friends. They just cut it out, and really jarringly too so it was so obvious it was missing >.>

Just realised that I'd put my billing info into iTunes when I bought my phone.
What apps do you guys recommend?

Just a Japanese phrasebook, a movie session times app and a currency converter.Agyar said:
Pocket Weather or Oz Weather for BoM powered weather forecasts.viciouskillersquirrel said:
ShopShop is a great free shopping list.
Evernote for note taking and syncing with your computer and the web.
Convertbot for all conversions, including currency.
Calcbot is a great replacement for the standard calculator if you use it a lot.
Twitter, Facebook if you use them.
Meebo is the best free IM app, supports push and lots of protocols.
Colloquy for IRC when AusGAF sees the light.
EBay for eBay.
Terminology for a dictionary.
Wikipanion for Wikipedia, though I feel there may be better solutions now.
Shazan for identifying music.
Remember The Milk for a to do list, but there's lots of good options in this category depending on your needs.
Photography is tricky as I'm only trying apps out myself now but Autostitch is cool for making panoramas.
Edit: On the subject of iPhones, Telstra's NextG is fantastic. The speed at which things load and update and the complete lack of any dropouts, lag spikes or indoor signal loss makes the iPhone feel so fresh again.
Compared to a recent(ish) speed test I did while on Virgin (Optus Network) on my iPhone 3G, in the same location (my desk at work):

I often wonder if half my frustrations with my iPhone are more to do with Optus than the phone itself...

Go Optus! :lol :lol :lol
Mar said:
A lot of the flakiness I thought was just part and parcel of 3G internet seems to have been an entirely indepedent to Optus. Not once have I had the 3G connection drop to 2G/GPRS/Edge/whatever, even inside buildings and never has the connection lagged or dropped out. On Optus, I constantly had an issue where the 3G connection would drop out but the phone still showed 3G signal and I would have to "restart" the connection by switching Airplane mode on and off to make it work again.
Edit: You can get the speedtest.net images by going to Results in the iPhone app, selecting the test result then emailing the result via the "export" button on the top right.

I used to be the biggest advocate for staying as far away from telstra as possible (3gig cap and all that prejudiced me for a long time). Have never had a mobile phone with them yet. But when looking at better coverage for the people at work, i tested a phone on Telstra. And good lord, their network coverage is just far superior, so much so that it seems silly to not go with them. In places where i was getting no reception with optus/3 with telstra, full 3g speeds.
I hate to say it, but i'm seriously looking at switching too (and getting a HTC Desire!).

Quote of the century
If people still smoke and buy the cig's how are they losing money and why on earth do they care what colour it is
They should be ashamed for selling something which kills people in the first place....
guessing those tobacco executives have had just a bit to much kool aid recently
Has anyone had Mafia II arrive yet, for those who ordered it through Zavvi?
Also Mar, planned to write up a draft of my Lost and Damned review today but probably won't get around to it until tonight if that. Still at work-training, which has given me lots of free time... but not enough coffee.

Many thanks, I'll try these out tonightAgyar said:
If you post spoilers, I'll cut you, Choc. I swear I will.Choc said:
Fredescu said:Not yet
The email says to contact them if it hasn't arrived in ten working days, and I guess it's only been eight so far. I guess I will have to wait.
Did you get your CPU sorted by the way?
HOLY DOUBLE POST BATMAN
CPU is sorted. Runs GTA4 on high everything (sans draw distance) at around 30-60fps. It jumps between the two a lot, but it's not very noticeable.
And it runs at around 45 degrees which seems to be good enough.

No wuckas dude.
I have just bought and downloaded Mirror's Edge and Monster Dash for the iPhone, both of which were developed by Aussie developers. These will be my next reviews.
Edit: And appstore reviews are rivaling youtube comments as the absolute lowest form of humanity. Although this one is more hilarious than anything else:

I was going to say, that looks like a kritz.net review!
