@NickKeir it was good, did learn some new things, but glad to be home, will take days to catch up on email though..catch up Monday #
@thewelsh1 the HTC flavour keyboard is much better #
@thewelsh1 I’m looking to get the HTC desire, which is the nexus one, but running HTC sense on top of android 2.1, on Orange of course #
@thewelsh1 can’t remember which one the legend is, but sense is probably not a massive leap over raw android, but if sense used first then + #
Just had a call from BA, my lost case is back in Manchester and will be dropped off this afternoon, thanks BA for keeping me informed! #
New TM Lewin catalogue just turned up, much improved over previous versions, had to check as lost case had 7 Lewin shirts in it #
@Ioan_Said why not? A bad experience? #
@stephenwing @thewelsh1 yes the legend is the new hero, sleek aluminum body looks nice, but desire wins on 1ghz processor #
@stephenwing what’s the trick then? Other than have an OS 10 times better than blackberry #
@stephenwing yes #
@stephenwing ah, took that for granted didn’t know crapberries didn’t do that, conforms my view of them then. #
Gonna give foursquare another go, came close to deleting my id, but Android app is much improved #

@rossjones @simon180 thanks for the heads up, will check what could be done, can’t and won’t promise anything #
@MAQ_Ecosse that’s amazing, #
Lost my case first time #
Yep, BA have lost my case, they think it’s in LHR and not still MAD, but told I “should” see it tomorrow, fingers crossed. #
@simon180 you thinking of taking Chester geekup up market then and have it there? #
@simon180 @bobberridge I heard on good authority that allegedly it’s full of Chester’s more ’successful’ criminals too #

All my purchased apps in the android store turned up today @htc..yeah! #
@sevendotzero very interesting topic, we looked at TEM in IBM, and figured we could eat it and sell it as a service too. #
@sevendotzero so when IBM sold network to ATT, the TEM function remained #
@simon180 Haven’t been for a few months so will try to be there #
Just watched the Madrid game in a bar in Madrid with 3 French people, interesting atmosphere #
The smoking in the bar is like going back a few years, I thought it was banned across Europe, but guess I’m wrong #

has dopplr officialy died now?..have people switched to Tripit?….shame dopplr was so smooth looking #
saddened by the 6 Music news, will leave a major hole behind #
@sevendotzero I think I’ll stop Dopplr, I liked the annual report as I used it as a travel log, but didn’t get one last year, so will stop #
@sevendotzero @BenedictEvans installed the tripit android app, so going to invest more into that, is there a gcal feed pushing trips out? #
@mikejjennings yep the radio and home page selections are pants on spotify, needs more social integration as per Last.fm style. #
@atmasphere will delve into #plancast as well as tripit then too #
