Big guy: I read the other day on the internet that masturbating can really make you retarded.
Clerk: Really? (long pause) Wow!

Why is Nokia such a complete failure?
by Volker Weber
Latest press release (in German):
Espoo, 02.07.2009 - Die neueste Version von Nokia Maps ist ab sofort verfügbar. Nokia Maps 3.0 für Mobiltelefone zeichnet sich durch ...
Die neueste Version von Nokia Maps für Mobiltelefone kann unter www.nokia.com/maps heruntergeladen werden.
Download at www.nokia.com/maps? Ok, let me grab the E75. Here is what you see:

I need to install Flash? OK, let's check the OVI store. Not in "Recommended". Let's search for "Nokia Maps". Result:

"Can you spell 'fuck' as in 'Nokia Maps'?" - "There is no fuckin Nokia Maps." - "Yup, that's what I am trying to tell you."
But wait, there is more:

Mac support coming soon. What for? Ah, the download is Setup_Nokia_Maps_Updater_1.0.7.exe. An executable? And what does it do? It grabs an S60 installer from the web and tries to push it to the device.
Who invented this? Why not let the phone grab the installer without requiring Flash and a special piece of PC hardware? Nokia, you are so backwards, that it is unbelievable. Buy everyone in the company an iPhone and task them with blowing our socks off.
Or step aside lest you be run over by the competition.
New Sonos CR200 Controller
by Volker Weber
Automated Home reports:
We've just seen this first image of the new Sonos controller. The CR200 uses a touch screen and comes complete with a charging cradle. There's no word on pricing but it should be available pretty much immediately.
We're also told that Sonos will be releasing a new bundle. The BU150 now changes to the BU250 which includes the CR200. There also is a slight colour change with the zoneplayers hardware to match the new controller but there are no technical changes & will still be named the ZP120 & ZP90.
Notice how they say nothing about pricing, features and availability. And I have nothing to add. ;-)

"Walled In!" Germany's inner border
by Volker Weber
For 28 years, a nearly insurmountable barrier kept people from fleeing East Germany. But then, the dramatic night of November 9, 1989, saw the fall of the Wall that divided Germany. Today, it is difficult to imagine what was bitter reality just a few decades ago.
For the first time, a realistic computer animation reveals the vast security system of Germany's inner border and the Berlin Wall, both of which were recreated virtually in the greatest detail.
Same movie in German.
