So you say. But how can we ever trust you after this?

My daughter's birthday party is tomorrow and this morning I told her that we had written "no gifts please" on the invitations. Now THAT was a cruel joke!

That only works for people who actually pay attention to irrelevant things like days and dates. OCD I say. All that does is interfere with the ease and joy of life as a procrastinator.

Does anyone know if they will issue a firmware update for the old models that will allow them to have all the new features or will I have to fire off an angry letter to the BBC Watchdog folks.

Fire off your letter. Not only are they abandoning future firmware updates to older models, but they're going to remove another row from the keyboard. Vowels will be moved to the "symbols" box. This will allow them to reduce the height by 0.0007 inches. Wow! That's just crazy small.

You sure it's not for the Croatian version?

prst - finger
vrh - tip


... the r is a vowel!

But first thing in the morning, one has to remember it is April Fools' day. It was also my cousin's birthday.
