Nope, turns out it’s still kicking–until tomorrow, when pretty much anything not running Android goes splork. I’ve never … Read the rest

Folks who’ve been following me a while will remember me writing about this device. For those that haven’t and don’t, a short summary.

I have become an Appleite. Good lord help me.
I’m not one of Apple’s biggest fans. In fact I’m not entirely sure I can be classed as a fan at all–my iPad review of last year should be your first clue. But, you could say, I was dragged kicking and screaming into the supposed future of computing. My relationship … Read the rest
