Why is it so difficult buying things from Carphone Warehouse?

| September 24, 2015 | 3 Replies

Advertisements   First off, this may just be coincidental but my last two purchases from Carphone Warehouse have been a lot tougher than they should have been. Basically no one able to help properly, and being shoved back and forth from customer service and the physical store. The first was regarding the free wireless charger that […]

  Nokia concentrating on smartphones and not producing tablets is somewhat understandable given the current conditions for Nokia. But in the world of mobile phones (which includes smartphones) trends within this category are not too be missed. It isn’t the first time Nokians got left behind.

If that’s the case then there’s some tables flipping this Sunday :p.  (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ No, we aren’t the only ones beginning […]

Rant: How Microsoft Are Killing Themselves (and Me) With Regional Restrictions

| August 9, 2012 | 141 Replies

I posted this over at MobilePhoneInnovation, so I figured I should post it here as well, since it is something a few readers may be interested in taking a look at. I’ve been doing some digging and have come across an interesting quote by somebody that was a part of getting MeeGo-Harmattan to where it […]
