Stylus styloss

2006-10-04

A new stylus arrived in the post this morning, following me dropping the old one in the dark of the Astoria last Friday night. I felt weirdly bereft without a stylus, a bit like going out without a wallet or a mobile, I would reach for it from time to time and feel distinctly uncomfortable when I found it (still) wasn't there. So, I am now complete once again. Scary.

Incidentally, I traded in my iMate Jam for a JasJah, or whatever this one is called - the Orange SPV M5000. It wouldn't suit everyone, its very big for a star but it has a hi-res screen, full keyboard and, delightfully and unexpectedly, it supports 3G/UMTS. So I've also been able to cancel my WiFi contract wth BT Openzone. Its got a faster processor than the IMate, I'd say this was the minimum spec necessary if you'd want to use it as a laptop replacement. Oh, and it can also play DivX video in full screen! Now I can record from the TV on my Archos AV340 and copy it onto here (it can also do blog posts) for viewing on the move. Nice when a plan comes together!
