lol Hobbs, i don't have any spare kidneys (kinda attached to them, ya know) but i'd be happy to organize a leg for those phones. Prices start at R55k, so i'm sure we'd be able to pick up some really good models

15 reasons Facebook may be worth $15bn
Microsoft has invested $240m (£117m) in social networking site Facebook in exchange for a 1.6% share of the company. That puts a value of $15bn (£7.3bn) on a firm that has only been in existence three and a half years.
So why does Microsoft think Facebook is worth $15bn? Here are 15 possible reasons....
1. The network has gone viral in the last 12 months, with more than 50 million users worldwide and a user base that is growing faster than great rival MySpace. According to Facebook, it adds 200,000 new users each day.
2. The average user spends 3.5 hours a month on Facebook - more than the average user on rival MySpace - which is increasingly attractive to advertisers.
3. Facebook is the current Web 2.0 darling - popular with ordinary users and "tech heads" alike.
4. US research reveals that Facebook users come from wealthier homes and are more likely to attend college than MySpace users - increasing that attraction for advertisers.
5. Microsoft's investment makes them a serious player in the growing market of "social advertising". Social network profiles are full of personal data that users voluntarily hand over, which is very useful for targeting adverts.
6. Sixty percent of Facebook users are outside of the US - so Microsoft's investment buys access to a global audience quickly and simply.
7. Facebook is the new web: The decision to open up the network to outside developers turned Facebook into a destination for many uses, like messaging, photos and video. Of course, as Facebook is on the web it could never really be the new web.
8. Every major content firm with an online presence is either working on a Facebook application or has already launched one - from Google to the BBC.
9. According to a report, 233 million hours of work are lost each month in the UK due to staff looking at social networks. Advertisers can now target people when at their desks.
10. The openness of Facebook is attracting a wealth of talented developers who can launch their applications to millions of users quickly.
11. Facebook messaging is the new e-mail. Everyone feels stressed from a deluge of e-mail from unwanted people and companies. But Facebook messages are always from friends.
12. Facebook's "status updates" have become the easiest way to let friends know what you are doing and how you are feeling at any given moment.
13. Facebook thrives on playful applications such as Pirates, Zombies, Super Wall and Top Friends, which have made the network a place to play as well as communicate.
14. Facebook is the acceptable face of blogging - you can reflect your life and personality online without being seen as a "blogger", which often carries a geeky stigma.
15. Facebook is worth $15bn only because Microsoft says so. The value of Facebook is based on a 1.6% share of the firm being worth the $240m Microsoft paid for it. Microsoft and Google were in a bidding war for a slice of the firm and both companies have large pockets. This was not just business, this was personal, according to some analysts.

Thats sounds good, i actualy prefer Facebook over MySpace, because most of my current friends and old friends have Facebook and not MySpace and also because on Facebook its your friends, people you actualy know whereas MySpace its random people from all over the place who you don't know mostly.
FINALY finishd packing thing i hate about flying is that you have to pedlock your zips so that nothing is missing when you get to your destination, WTF!!? Last time i flew with friends when we got to East London my cricket bag had been basicaly torn appart and some of my stuff was missing.....

Wats up guys. Haven't been around these woods in ages. Been super busy with exams. Just completed my undergrad degree in medicine. Feels great. Been busy with lots of gadgets over the last week. Bought a nintendo wii with wii play, rayman, and fifa 08. It comes bundled with wii sports and it was so much fun to beat my 45 year old father-in-law in bowling. You guys should check it out. Really something for the whole family. Bought myself an ipod nano 8gb (1799 at dion wired stores if anyone's interested). Also a brilliant piece of kit. They've really tuned up the interface and the screen is excellent. Thinking of reccommending a w580 for my mum and a w910 for my dad. Voda have both available. Any comments.

@ Gucci,
Ya, those rat bikes and survival bikes get my creative juices flowing..
@ Jojo,
Found this when you were 'on the couch' with Cycovision earlier this year:
'Who are your favourite Esato members and why?
'...What I can just honestly say is that . . . you DON'T have permanent FRIENDS here at Esato, sooner or later . they will also BECOME your ENEMIES at the END (of the day) . . .'
And honestly mate, I hope that we can buck that trend if you feel that it's still a pertinent statement.

As with the

India thread, you are most welcome here.
@ Jits,
Good to see you again. Congrats on making such progress in your chosen profession.
