Ahh a nice place to test the camera of my brand new HTC Touch Diamond 2

And these are the results, which i may say are better then i at first expected.

Is it possibly the heat?

Perhaps it was old, or slow…

Yeah you got it, a damn pidgeon in the middle of the road. I did not see it coming right away, as i was in the middleof taking over a slowpoke and a truck.Suddenly I noticed the dumb bird, I then assessed the situation as I approached the peace of poultry at approximately 90km/h, i saw it taking of and thought that, as with any normal birds, they would be off before me beeing anywhere near.

Well, the next thing that happened was that i heard a *thumb* noise and shortly after the bird bouncing on my windshield and over my car, resulting in a cloud of feathers behind me.

I couldn’t avoid it by crossing to the oposite lane either (It’s a 3 lane road), that would have resulted in in a crash with an oncoming bus 🙁

Unfortunately for me, the quite heavy pidgeon (bosduif) at 90ish km/h left a nasty dent the size of a dessert plate on my hood.

Hopefully it won’t cost arm+leg to get it fixed :s

edit: Today as i passed the location where it happened, i saw the pidgeon was now in 2D form in the middle of the road…

My car still drives, so i guess my car wins? (but I still loose… money)

I recently was re-assured by someone in the bussiness there is no such phone available unfortunatly, and he also promised me to try and fix something with the importer for HTC in Belgium so perhaps we can switch the ROM’s containing the adjusted windows mobile version (Touch Flow) of HTC.

HTC Touch Pro 2 azerty en|nl

htc-touch-pro-2

Well I am planning on buying one.

It seemed to me to be one of the most complete smartphones currently on the market.

Nice keyboard, GPS, 3G, Wifi, bluetooth everything i am looking for connectivity wise.

The screen is also bigger then the old touch pro, but the main thing people see as a con on the phone is the weight and perhaps the battery lifetime.

So im doing some research on the touch pro 2 azerty nl|en.

And gues what, HTC still ships all their azerty phones in French only,

I really don’t want my phone in French, so I am thinking about buying it in qwerty and ill just have to think im playing an old school game or something.

(I sense some querty lovers just thinnking, pff you should just use qwerty anyways, but whatever)

The only semi-solution was changing the ROM containing windows mobile, but im not sure how much trouble that is.

I’ve sent a mail to HTC asking if a Touch Pro 2 azerty in Dutch or English was available, and if not if it ever would be, but no answer so far.

I’ll keep you posted.

The blog

Author: sandshark

So i decided to blog my little laughs and sods of my programming life.

I’m not promising to post alot, but i guess we’ll see where it goes 🙂

Perhaps a short synopsis of who I am is in place.

I am currently a 24 year old php developer who works developing enterprise applications.

I like to play computergames of all kinds.

But mostly strategy and shooters.

I like electronic music like trance, techno, electro,…

And then there’s movies and series.
