    It had a brief flurry of interest but in the end, it was just another solution looking for a problem.

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

      Dunno, but yes I agree it would be a lot better if you could do it yourself.

      They've started having non-replaceable batteries in their laptops too. They claim it's so they can fit more cells in (the 17" macbook pro have 8 or maybe 10) but I'm not convinced.

        vcard is a standard for electronic business cards, used by email, SMS, bluetooth. So, if you have a phone that's not an iPhone, I can text you my business card, and it will create an entry in your phone's address book.

        The iPhone can handle it via email but not SMS. A small, but indicative failure.

          Indicative of what?

            Sorry, but no, still don't see the need for it. Never been sent one or been asked for one.

                The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
