Really got me with the Goats.....

The first time I saw the jumping goat ad from Telus, I wanted a baby goat of my own. Of course I'd only want it for about half an hour when I could kindly return it to the farmer from which is came.

Telus is about to offer something much more than goats, announced this week, Telus and Bell are FINALLY going to be offering the wildly popular Apple iPhone. http://www.telusmobility.com/en/ON/home/

So far in Canada, there has been a monopoly on the iPhone through Rogers, which might be the "most reliable network" but dodgiest customer service (through informal poll of users).

The world of wireless telephones is growing exponentially. "Smart" phones have erupted in the past couple of years - remember the original Blackberry that as floating around the office with only the very senior personnel? It seems ancient now. Even the non-smart phones offer increased access to the web, advances messaging systems and applications. So are computers becoming phones or phones becoming computers!?

Now consumers have to choose from phones offered by Blackberry, Apple, Palm, Google and Microsoft.




That's right! Microsoft has announced it's own smart phone called the Windows Phone (don't over stretch your marketing genius there guys....) it will be able to access the internet, email, an application store and it can open word and excel files.. So let's all give it up for Microsoft with a big warm welcome to last year!
