Another Nokia #FAIL
I am seriously fed up with how useless my Nokia N78 is. It is horrible.
I mentioned a while about about all of my problems with the phone, and things are getting worse. I decided to upgrade the firmware on the phone after discovering my phone was 9 versions behind.
After eating all my airtime I managed to finally upgrade a few versions. I think to v15 from v12, but I am not 100% sure. I simply got too fed up to check. I then decided to upgrade using my PC and downloading the update off the Internet, but that didn’t help me either. After downloading the 30MB file, and attempting to install it, I found out that the Nokia Software Updater does not support Windows 7. #FAIL.
After upgrading the firmware as well, things went further down hill. The phone now brings up its own menu’s randomly some times, and I really do not like the little changes that they have made. Surely if you are going to release a newer version of software, the goal is to make it better? No? NO! Not in Nokia’s case. I am going to cook myself from the inside as my blood is boiling so much because of this stupid phone!
RAFIQ PLEASE LET ME KNOW THAT OPENMOKO PHONE SO THAT I CAN ACTUALLY SLEEP AT NIGHT!!!
You would be contributing to the improvement of my health!
JUST SOMEONE SAVE ME!!!
Apple iPad Parady
So with the release of the brand new Apple iPad yesterday, the entire internet has been buzzing with news, reviews and opinions from all corners.
Here is something to take the edge off all the hype and constant news from it:
Mad TV have some simply brilliant skits.
My New Graphics Card: Radeon HD4850
I had been looking at buying a few new parts for my pc as I was so fed up with the lag and limitations of my aging machine. I deemed it was finally time for the good ol’ betty to get that upgrade.
I had saved for a while, and during all this time I was constantly following the trends, but by doing this I ended up getting myself completely confused about what to get! In the end I was so fed up and decided I needed some retail therapy. I might have rushed into a decision because of this, but hey, you only live once so who really cares?
I ended up choosing this bad boy:
Radeon 4850
I snapped it up for just over 1k which is basically a steal if you compare it to the 2.5k that it cost when it first came out. Aah, the joys of having a new series released and the attempts to try and sell the old stock :) I am really happy with this card and can play all games on full graphics that I have tried. I am running on a 19″ monitor so the resolution is big enough for me, but it also means that the card can handle it perfectly :)
The actual card
I am looking forward to grabbing hold of some new games such as Modern Warfare 2 as well as Left 4 Dead 2! I want to see how my baby handles those new releases :) I would recommend one of those cards to someone looking for a decent cheap upgrade. It has an HDMI port on it as well so it really is a great buy.
What a change from my 7600GT!
