On the job at KickStart
Early this morning, when intelligent people were still in bed, or perhaps enjoying breakfast, Bleeding Edge was on duty, dear reader, flying north to Maroochydore for a three-day IT conference called KickStart. We love these events, not just because you get to hear a lot of vendors delivering their messages in bulk, with the opportunity to home in on what you might be interested in, but also because when IT journos get together, they spend hours whining about their technology. You can learn a lot about what doesn't work over a beer or two.
Alex Zaharov-Reutt for instance, has been having so many problems that for a change we felt positively blessed by our technology. The front bezel on his new Nokia N70 phone on the 3 Network spontaneously peeled off. Every few weeks he has to completely reset his Wi-Fi router and laptops etc. to make it all work, and even after a ROM update, his O2 Atom is " still useless". We should all have an Alex in our life.
