Now this IS impressive.

OK, new toy to play with.

I know you've probably seen this before on your iphones, but to me, this is black magic voodoo shit.

Unfortunately, one thing lacking without alot of hacking (which I'm not doing) is to take a screenshot, so I can't share what I'm seeing in Glasgow.

Now where this gets REALLY freaky, is that the phone picks up GPS when I'm in the house, blinds closed, etc. But the sat nav in the car won't pick up satnav unless it's on the bloody windscreen, so to program it you've got to stretch out for about 2 minutes, then program it, then stick it on the screen. And the phone picks up it's location in about 3-5 seconds. Very slick.

Ah, you early adopters...

(that'll come back to bite me when it's found out that Android turns you into a killer zombie by frying your brain or something).
