No update for my N95

Swisscom sucksI have been waiting for quite some time to upgrade the firmware of my N95. I am running version 11.0.026, and the lastest version is 21.0.016 something… There are many improvements, amongst them using A-GPS would allow me to get the GPS signal in 5 seconds instead the 15 minutes currently,… but the Software Updater tells me I can not, one reason being that my operator does not have the latest approved firmware.
I had a call a few weeks ago with Swisscom consummer service and they told me that they do not provide the new firmware because they were not happy with it and they were still testing it (while the rest of the world can get it). Sucks!

My first video

Yesterday night I worked on my first video editing session. Nothing fancy… and for a start I used Windows Movie Maker :-)

Here is the result:

Yahoo! s’installe à Rolle

… ou plutôt s’installerAIT à Rolle, parce que l’info vient du syndic de Rolle et pas encore de Yahoo!

TSR.ch et 24Heures.ch

Proche de Genève et de son aéroport Rolle tire son épingle du jeu avec déjà plusieurs grosses sociétés dans la région! Pas une bonne nouvelle pour l’immobilier dans la région qui n’avait déjà pas attendu cette nouvelle p0ur prendre l’ascenseur :-)

Le client est ROI

J’avais jamais réalisé que “ROI” est aussi l’acronyme de “Return On Investment” en anglais (“Retour sur investissement)… alors le client est ROI ? Ceci expliquant cela… mais y’a une relation ? ou c’est un pur hasard ?

My Swiss Mobile Web (1): mw.20min.ch

I am going through my mobile bookmarks. First step: my “swiss” folder, or to put it another way: making good use of the mobile web without using useless and expensive services from Swisscom Mobile and its “Vodafone” Portal.

mw.20min.ch

20minutes.ch has a pretty good mobile website (relaunched in august last year) with the latest news in a river of news format. If I had to guess I would say that it is based on RSS feeds generated by the “normal” web version. Useless in the train as you have already read the paper version :-) but it seems to be updated all day long. Service developped by MobileTechnics in Bienne.
