I think it's highly likely he'll receive some compensation though. This is NZ's biggest court case, I don't think the public are going to be happy unless Bain gets some money.

To that end I wish the News Media would shut up about the expense of the whole process, because it just makes some feel that enough money has been spent already so why spend more? That's completely unfair to Bain.
If the media want to make a point about the expense, why not ask the Police and Crown Prosecutor for comment? NZ media are just parasites most of the time.
For a very good crtique of the NZ Media, see here:
http://tvnz.co.nz/media7/video
or watch Media7 on TVNZ 7 if you have Freeview.
Episode 19 has a good panel discussion on what is and isn't 'Off the record'. These vultures are so hipocritical! They use multiple takes to make themselves look good but claim that politicians are like professional sports people, they should be able to perform on cue, in an instant and get it right every time or else be taken down in public. What BS!!! Find me a professional sportsperson in NZ who is totally infallible and never made a mistake, and I'll find you a flying pig holding and autographed picture of the Loch Ness Monster and a map to Jimmy Hoffa's body! Morons.
Note: Russel Brown's comment about having to 'do some work' when investigating information leaked from politicians. Funny!! Yes Duncan, you got caught saying what you mean.
Sorry for the rant...
Lazy, cynical media gets me wound up.

Yeah, the media arent exactly the most truthful information providers...
Have you seen the W995 camera samples recently?? One compared shots with the iphone and the iphone pics looked brighter, better colours! Purple fringing, a white cast across the pictures, blurry, dull looking colours...is this an 8 megapixel camera? I would of expected alot more from such a high end phone. So thats that then cross it off my list!

I don't believe that camera comparison for a moment. My iPhone produces pics that are next to useless, my V640i photos are heaps better. I would expect W995 to be a lot better than V640i.
iPhone sample pic
V640i sample pic
V630i sample pic
V800 sample pic
You decide.

Yeah I saw the W995/iPhone comparison too. I don't honestly believe it would be that bad... It's the same module as the C905 so it couldn't be as bad as the iPhone which carkitter has just demonstrated is next to useless.
Haha I just heard it wasn't just the C510 that was recalled on Telecom, but every single phone! Apparently a software problem. The guy who told me said he has "inside info" but I really don't know how much credibility this rumour has.

That iPhone photo was taken on a beautiful warm day during last summer with the sun behind me so no excuses I'm afraid - the conditions were ideal. iPhone 3G photos are characterised by blurriness and are dull and lifeless. If you think it looks poor above, you should see it on the gorgeous, bright, high-quality screen of the iPhone which just magnifies the faults to the nth degree. Makes you cringe, seriously.
If however, you upload V640i photos to the iPhone's photo gallery, you'll be stunned by the results. You'll swear they were taken by a DSLR and optimised by Photoshop - the iPhone screen just makes them shine! Quite ironic really...

Im not surprised at all! Thats what apple are good at
Heaps of BS
Thats just my opinion though!
Either way, the colours on the W995 shot looked very bland in comparison to the iphone shot and thats not exactly something to be proud of. Just looking at samples by themselves is bad enough. Im so dissapointed!

Well the C905 can produce some stunning results, sometimes things taken by the c905 look even better than they do in real life (IMO) So its kinda suprising that the w995 can't at least match that (minus xenon of course)

If you think of the iPhone as a media viewing device rather than a media creation device like the
phones we're used to, then it makes more sense. You know, like an iPod with a phone added...
Which I guess, kinda makes an iPhone v W995 camera comparison absurd.

What's with the sound on the XT Testdrive website? Every time I visit I have to turn my sound off cause it irritates me. I wonder who thought it was a good idea to put that in... An unnecessary waste of bandwidth.
