I'm one of those subscribers pissed off at Vodacom's data blackout...nevermind the kids on mxit.
Went around to Cell C at the Waterfront this evening and they seem to have stock of the black M600i in their warehouse...for the paltry sum of R3900, should it come it at that price I'll be bloody tempted...Oh, I forgot I need to be careful with the funds, I'm soon joining the jobless queue
PS: Talking to the sales clerk at the Cell C shop, I asked for a dummy model of the M600- just to get a feel of proportions- and he tells me
sales reps were still to deliver them even though the phone has been advertised in newspapers for two weeks now.

Good luck with your new venture/ job prospects brixster, whatever lies ahead of you in the coming weeks/ months.
BTW, that's a damn good price for the M600i, and almost the same money as some of the UK independent dealers' sim-free stock.
I presume your arm would've been more easily twisted if they had the white M600i in stock...?

I definitely preferred the white one but I realise that one might be a Vodacrap exclusive.
I take everyone knows that number portability has been delayed by the networks and won't be introduced on September 18.

Speaking of "insufficient funds", some folks have an abundance, it would appear. Imagine forking over R80000 on a baby's pram, or R60000 on furniture for a child's bedroom... Eish, those folk up in Jozi really don't know what to do with their money! Check out

Wow! "Here are Meccano construction sets worth R20000 for you son."....Son thinks to himself..."Wow, that is subtle! Engineering it is! But let me first get the basics down, like walking, speech, and clay..."
I must say, I would have loved Meccano construction sets worth R20000 back in the day...would have been able to build the brooklyn bridge, or if i was bored the day, a working model of the place they refer to as "Earth".
So now it is time to share a story about my experience with Joburg kids back when I did camp. So far, if it is a non-private school from there, expect one or 2 kids in the school with enough money to buy every single kid on camp (usually 60-120) a can of soda at R5 a can, and that is daily for 3 days...Not that they will.
Then my experience with Private Joburg Schools....Only did a Girls Catholic School...talk about hot campers....lol! Did the same school twice: got 2 grades in at a time. The second time they came the Gr.8 girls were so full of $h!t you could see it coming out of their ears. The older girls, gr. 10 were quite easier to deal with, (except for when we did mud activities at the dam with them: no guy can deal with that! 3 or 4 would refuse to touch mud, the rest would be smearing it on each other's soaking bodies in slow motion....enough to make any guy....never mind=)
So you have your good apples and your bad apples in such school. The teachers from that school tells horror stories about gr.8 girls arriving at the school and demanding the teacher bring them tea promptly, don't you know who my parents are? and crap like that....What I would answer in case of that; your parents only pay R30000-R50000 for your school fees, go make your own Paris Hilton Damned tea...
And I must say, 3 of the sweetest girls I have met were from that school.

A load of codswallop but an interesting thought nonetheless:
I've heard an idea proposed, I've no idea how seriously, to account for the sensation of vertigo. It's an idea that I instictively like and it goes like this. The dizzy sensation we experience when standing in high places is not simply a fear of falling. It's often the case that the only thing likely to make us fall is the actual dizziness itself, so it is, at best, an extremely irrational, even self-fulfilling fear. However, in the distant past of our evolutionary journey toward our current state, we lived in trees. We leapt from tree to tree. There are even those who speculate that we may have something birdlike in our ancestral line. In which case, there may be some part of our mind that, when confronted with a void, expects to be able to leap out into it and even urges us to do so. So what you end up with is a conflict between a primitive, atavistic part of your mind which is saying "Jump!" and the more modern, rational part of your mind which is saying, "For Christ's sake, don't!" In fact, vertigo is explained by some not as the fear of falling, but as the temptation to jump!
