@Markarian: the Bermuda Triangle is no match to our Great Sandy Desert. Except we like to make our actions well visible.

Now, Fusion Garage, you've done the excellent step of making it possible for devoted people to do this. The next step is to start selling in Australia, please...

@Benjamin Patron: It's not really the whole issue of it running in memory or not, it's just the fact that apps run in the background for a reason most of the time in Android. Killing them often confuses the system which then will restart the service beyond the user's knowledge, where it will have to reprocess

@angstman: First tip: Task Managers may look infinitely useful and absolutely necessary, but you're better off without a task manager. Fish around in xda-developers for more info technical-wise, but I'd agree with them - my phone runs a damned lot faster without a task manager installed. And it does the task managing

I'm getting increasingly impatient at the fact that Palm never managed to even get one of their webOS phones sold in Australia. No, not only that, we had to wait for a GSM version before we could import it, and its radio frequencies aren't even compatible with half the networks here.

@FrostByghte: I find that a lot of teenagers become slouches or party animals (for the lack of a better term) because they simply cannot do what they aspire to achieve. I know that I for one had a lot of things I really wanted to do - but the notion that under 18 kids can't do anything is too far deeply embedded in

@ym_arki: Spot on. I've just escaped those years of my life, and in reality the teenager has one of three paths to take:

From my phone I managed to read 'Losers' instead of 'Lasers' and spent a silly moment wondering how they decide who is a loser, because I've got a list handy.

Ahhh, how it reminds me of Sim City 4.

@LVP: Yet you guys can still (until recently) get unlimited mobile internet, whether capped at 5 gigs or not, it's still a damn lot more than what we get: mere hundreds of megabytes.

time for vimperator for safari.

@rushbc: Oh, I ended up getting money out of my savings account rather than my spending account, waking up at 5am and rushing out to the city to line up and buy manually, seeing as my debit card was out of action. I got the tickets, but as a result I'm also down with a fever from heading out really early when I

@nachobel TOTORO!: haha, I know it was actually my fault. Still, when you needed that 119 bucks for a Muse ticket, Muse being a band that finds that it's live tickets sell out in a matter of minutes, panic and frustration does ensue.

Apple rudely decided I liked the 60 day trial and taxed $119 off my debit card for MobileMe without telling me. I asked for a refund and now it's taking several days to get that money back. Apple, I am not happy. The least you could've done was something small like not overprice Australian Apple devices in comparison

Federation Square is amazing at night. You don't see it in any of these photos, but opposite that jagged-walled building is the SBS building, with about thirty led marquees scattered around its main wall. You can SMS a message to a number (of which slips my mind) and a few seconds, or up to several minutes later,

Make it better than the Wacom Bamboo Pen&Touch that I'm planning to get, and I'll get this instead.

@CarbonatedFalcon: Same. I bought a magic mouse, used third party software for awesome stuff such as pinch to zoom and using the magic mouse as a trackpad, but I also got over it within a few weeks. It's way too uncomfortable, and I was getting sick of it right clicking every time I rested my fingers on the mouse
