G'day all.
Wondering if anyone around these parts has ever had dubious premium content

that it will be in the same price bracket as the N95, perhaps more expensive.

Even with the benefit of hindsight, Helen Coonan can’t see any errors in her
government’s approach to telecommunications policy – confirming that any
vision she may have had was certainly very blurry.
In this vein, it is not surprising to read in her interview with CommsDay

Folks,
Tech here yesterday showed me a code to enter into a NextG phone which brings up
a heap of tech info, including the current cell being accessed.  He mentioned he
