Zen and the Art of Vista Eating My Nokia
Hello All, sad techie tale of doom..

Lost my phone over xmas so treated myself to a nokia n95 8gb at lunchtime.

Installed the software (which IS vista compatible)

Ran the updater, like you do.

Downloaded the updated software for the fone and it proceeds to munch my nice new phone to death with it. Yey!

Cue grumpy Bolivar at shop tommorow.

BTW Thought "Ah" will install said software on my XP install and save the day coz obviously it dosnt REALLY like vista.

Cue installation of said software munching my xp install to death...

Im starting to think this is on a par with me almost killing myself hang gliding...
Ive always taken this piss out of danger sports much as ive taken the piss out of ppl with silly expensive toys in their pockets and yet again when I fall into these ways Disaster Awaits!!

Pretty sure that the sale of goods act allows me to cancel said agreement from yesterday and Im off to get a 10 quid fone from tescos on pay-as-you-talk...God Im a twat.

The Motorola F3 is meant to be good AND cheap, sadly Vista is neither.

You're missing the point!
The dumb thing you did was install Vista in the first place...

Are you saying
that a story of you failing to update your phone is more interesting than a story of how you almost killed yourself hang-gliding?
