We just breezed through a fine example of 'The ability to speak foolishly' a line coined by the Late Justice Felix Frankfurter of the US Supreme Court.

I'm referring to the recent round-one session between the Dubai Police Chief, the Doha Center and Youtube (aka Google) who were asked to trim down their repo for the UAE.

The Chief spoke foolishly, the Center presented its case, and Google backed-off.

Case closed or rather shoved on the back burner, well at least for now.

Jemma's itchy fingers to update her iPhone to IPSW 2.2.1, which in turn upgraded her baseband to 02.30.03 and then jacked up the bootloader to 6.02.


And I'm friggin short by AED 250 for a turbo sim to get her iPhone 3G in working condition.

A further catch is that we have to wait until after June to dump the turbo sim and get the lush device working without a glitch after IPSW 3.0 is released.

Why me, Darlin'?

Just felt like posting about this longwaytogo overpriced Darwinized' device!

Neither image appeals but it all depends what's in the box;

On the other hand, HTC's G1 on Android is not a bad idea!

While the whole region is infected with overwhelming narcissism, it's refreshing to see the Qataris invest a small amount of time, energy, and resources in the field of ethics.

Whether it's a whitewash or that something worthwhile would be derived in the short or long run, time alone will tell.

But, for now, their initiative is commendable, as it could play a major role in their new role, as a power house of this region!

Unless of course some one else has a change of heart - I know fat chance! But still they would not qualify for the power role!

Angels and Devils on a spiritual Friday and in part to get our kids motivated to watch their likes, and also the Italian journey we had to forego due to the earthquake, and also the subsequent trip to Prague;



So many 'ands', I know but in a way they're all interconnected on this spiritual Friday.

Below's a screen shot of 'Where to play in Dubai?'

That's a new app, free-of-charge, on App Store

How about if they aired the real sleaze-ridden (hidden) places for privileged iPhone users?

I bet, there'd be a massive inflow of tourists seeking fun & play while basking under the sun!
