I must have subconsciously absorbed this news from the internets. Apple have just ditched exclusivity with O2 in the UK and have signed deals with Orange and Vodafone. ATT exclusivity ends in 2010 - if the UK trial goes well for Apple, perhaps they will then open things up more in the US

No. I realised the only reason I wanted an iPhone/iPod Touch this week - the *only* reason - is for a job next week where the client wants me to do audioboos. Otherwise, I've been saving up for an N900. I'll find another way around the live audio posting. The Audioboo iPhone app is an

Nokia has been closed up until now. The N900 using an open source OS is a radical departure for them - they've been a traditional, hierarchical closed company. Thus many fewer apps. Also the apps are more functional, less fun for straight mobile phones. The moment you bring in a touch

One thing to consider with pixelpipe (unlike the iPhone's sharing of video by email or to YouTube) is that it doesn't compress the video first and doesn't limit the length. So you can easily end up trying to push a 30, 40, 50MB+ video from your phone. It's still a great app. You just have to be
