"Nokia – connecting people, photographing them and annoying them with a vast range of mindless ringtones"
Jeremy Clarkson, the refreshing loud mouth presenter of BBC’s hit “Top Gear”, is frustrated with the vast choice of high-tech mobile phones as not a single one simply does what he needs: be a phone. You know, one for talking?
He does highlight one of my major gripes about convergence device: Battery Life!
“What I want is a mobile phone with a battery that lasts for more than six seconds. This means no colour screen. A colour screen uses more electricity than the Pentagon “
