Ok, so this must rank as one of the more unconventional of my periodic how to articles, but I've inadvertently found another use for my increasingly indispensable Nokia E90 - keeping a girl occupied on long journeys :)

I've just travelled to Devon for the weekend, which took about 3 hours or so, and had a passenger with me with the attention span of a hamster with ADHD. Trying to find some way of fending off the constant "are we nearly there yet?"s, I was looking for some way to occupy her that didn't involve earplugs (too obvious) or a gag (even less subtle!)

I'm coming back from London now (again writing this post on the train), having spent a glorious afternoon seeing Spamalot in the West End. While there, I got the chance to try out my Nokia E90's Sat-Nav functionality in earnest, and the results were, well, mixed..

Well, I'm off to London now, writing this post on my Nokia E90 on the train. Apart from the connection dropping out at Slough (just when you need something to take your mind off the scenery!), i've been browsing without problem, and now moblogging.

I've had my Nokia E90 Communicator for a couple for weeks now, and I'm really starting to use it in earnest. What are my impressions so far? One word: awesome! I've stopped thinking of it as a mobile phone, and see it more as a laptop for those times when I don't actually have my laptop with me.
