lol, you Gen Y's and your new fangled digital phones.

OK. Well, lets start at the start. It was hot the day I was born. let me tell you, in those days we had proper heat, not this soft politically correct heat the kids think is tough today, "oooh oooh please, don't burn me, I was born after 1975 and I'm fragile". No sirree!! In the old days we'd line up for hours, wearing three layers of fur at midday in the middle of summer, just to jump into a roaring fire in the middle of the volcano. We knew heat back then, I'm telling you! Anyway, it was just after the war and I was walking to school in three feet of snow with a possum strapped to my head for warmth, with a bush biscuit for lunch and we were thankful if we had some lard spread on it....... where was I? Oh yeah

Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.

And you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won't believe you.

That virus is nothing to be worried about at all. Just either delete or change your ssh password.

I have done that but that stupid picture still hasnt gone? Changed both the root and phone password, Im confused

Presumably changing the password will prevent your phone from "catching" the virus - if it hasn't already done so. I fail to see how it's going to rectify your problems once you've caught the disease.

My first phone was an old Philips prepaid, no idea what model. Took it with me to high school, but unlike my fellow students, I really never used mine at all.

Second phone was one of these, a stopgap freebie from my Telstra-employed uncle until I could get a proper one

Unlike the rest of the world, I never got a Nokia 3310 - never owned any Nokia actually. My next phone was this

After that, I moved up to this

Before upgrading, eventually, to my current phone when the new model came out a few months ago

concur
i have an iPhone and its not until you jailbreak the phone do you realise just how much good stuff you can do with it
im not really talking about free apps, but functional tools... basically the raw iphone is crippled out of the box... jailbreaking unlocks a whole world of goodness that the iphone can actually do

Can. U jailbreak on vista

The best phone I ever had was my last one - a Samsung U100 which was one of those credit card thin phones with a 3MP camera. Sadly I forgot it was in my pocket (it was ridiculously light) and took it for a swim in the Aquatic Centre.

My current phone is a Samsung A711 which is a pretty decent, affordable phone which has only been befouled by being on the Telstra network.

Both of the Nokias I've owned have ended up being smashed - deliberately - by me - because the pieces of crap just stopped working after about a year.

Oh and btw avoid T-Life at all costs: they are the rudest, most disgraceful excuse for a phone shop I've ever wasted my time at. Different name, same old shitty Telstra.

Instead of Shazam get Midomi, same sort of thing expect this one you can hum/sing etc and then takes you to the next page where you can buy the song, bookmark it, share it and links to youtube videos of the song, links to lyrics, other suggested music etc. Sooo much better than Shazam.
Flick Cricket is good fun haha! Got over 100 for the first time the other day. Game is a bit easy tho, I cant remember the last time I lost or go close to losing.
