You're right, my WP7 phone (a Lumia 900) lasts way longer than my Galaxy S3... Never mind that WP7 can't run any apps in the history of ever (most notably it cant run a microsoft account-capable version of Skype, a microsoft product) but hey the battery will be there when I NEED it...

But will it work as a phone when you need it? Perhaps the experience has been enhanced for those that just want a mobile voice communications device (only one with a pretty touch screen and useless tiles).

So you still don't own a mobile phone or a laptop? How's that abacus going?

Bullshit! Ahem, http://www.internode.on.net/residential/broadband/adsl/easy_broadband/ 1TB per month for AU$130 a month, less if you bundle I'm currently paying $60 a month for 60GB naked ADSL2, land line on VoIP, so no monthly rental fee to Telstra for a service I don't use. The industry in .au is changing, slowly, but it is changing ... and the NBN is one of the catalysts

And for novelty wines there are plenty of other names us Aussies can use like "Alice Springs Leg Opener".

That's actually beer, not wine ... it's called VB
