Taken yesterday with the P1i in overcast, gloomy Winter conditions, near Maldon in Essex, along the Blackwater River:

More bike show pics, taken with the
P1i. Quite some artful engineering here on this hand-crafted frame, tank, rims, swingarm, trellis fork setup,etc, yet still keeping with the older classic cruiser styling:
...and another rear view of that insane suped-up Terminator/Robocop-styled Yamaha V-Max. A bit blurry, but nevertheless...:

@pop - I guess that BIKE was taken from the tv-series-show: CHOPPERs
The father and 2 sons-tandem/trio
Nice shot for an INDOOR pal !

@ Jojo,
Although it may appear to be something from the Discovery Channel's American Chopper series, t's actually not one of the OCC (Orange County Choppers) creations. It's the creation of one of the UK's top bike builders AFAIK. Will try find a link and more info later.

Nice pics Wangs.I got a sneaky feeling you are not 100 percent sure of that cam on the P1i.When you put it alongside your N73,which one do you think comes out top? You've only had the P1i for a wee bit and with some practice and experience Im sure your pics will improve lol (says me looking at them on a 240 by 320 screen
) I wanna post some pics taken with my phone but Im still having 'login' problems.When that gets resolved God only knows.The help on the esato forum aint 5 star in my opinion.
@Gucci-Ive installed a mobile music studio on my phone called Syntrax.I think its also available for S60 phones.Check it out.Its a bloody marvelous app.Ive got the 'full' version
Ok 5 albums ripped in mp3 at 256kbps.Its much louder on my phone and you can hear things happening all over the place in the song that at 128kbps would just have been missed.Very nice.And with this MegaBass,my ears are going to take a serious ass kicking.At this rate a bigger memory card and pc hard-drive is going to be needed me thinks.Yeehaa!
And Wangs,install the latest Linkboy.Thats an order.You wont regret it.Promise.You have access to 45 shortcuts with just 3 taps of the stylus.Now that my friend is just insanely wonderful.

Here's a purple alternative from the same stable. Again, amazing machining from solid billet to create the swingarm, wooden (! LOL) seat and no lower frame cradle supports; all the stress loads calculated and carries by the fantastic frame 'spine':

Wangs you have got to approach a biking magazine and ask them if you can write a column or something.Even take a couple of pics.Some hobby change on the side for all the lekker luxuries you dont want to spend your hard earned real job money on.

@ Hobbster,
Ya, LinkBoy's on the to-do list.
About the P1i cam, yeah as I made mention over the weekend, in some cases, like those indoor show pics, the P1i would've killed the N73 in a shootout. BUT, as I found out again over the past few days, the P1i is definitelty more sensitive to movement and therefore blurring, and in some conditions, like night shot, the N73 is probably better.
I know it's still early days, I know that I've still got to learn the art of fine-tuning the settings to get optimum results in the different conditions, but the N73 was a good basis to compare with. A benchmark, if you like.
I maintain that there's no out-and-out winner between the 2 cams, and trying hard not to sound too cliched, both have their strong points and weak points.
Although I enjoy
, I have no hesitation being impartial when comparing phones. I'm enjoying the P1i more and more, but as specs and technology become more and more prevailant in phones, so I'm finding myself expecting a lot 'out the box' as such; just gotta keep pluggin' away to get the most out of it, as time and experience allows.

@ Jojo,
LOL, Christies indeed. Nah mate, it's all show, even though the bikes do run and ride, it'll not be travelling thousands of miles in its lifetime.
@ Hobbster,
Ya, I have contacted a SA bike magazine years ago, and there was some interest shown, but again it's the time and commitment elements that I've gotta suss.
Anywayz guys, time to hit the sack. Great to be back at my house again. I'm battling to stay awake now. Have a bril Thursday.
G'night.
