Do people not realise you can tax your bloody car online these days without moaning at the Post Office? #waiting or perhaps they can't read!

Orange + iphone4 + 3G = pile of shit
Posted by Kevster in Mobile Computing on 17/02/2011
I have been a loyal (?) customer of Oranges for over 15 years but am at the end of my tether with their network
I have an iPhone 4 and yes I know it’s a crap phone but why is there 3g network so bad. I am working in a ‘new’ town so would expect decent coverage but no. 3G lies like a cheap watch and is slower than manually setting GPRS, calls continually drop even when the phones showing 3 bars. The place I’m working for even uses Orange as a supplier for 3G and I’m not sure how they put it with the shoddyness.
I have the same issue at home but made even worse by continually swapping between Orange/T Mobile. Supposedly the result of their ‘everything everywhere’ initiative that feels like ‘nothing nowhere’
Take my advice. Leave or avoid Orange at all costs!!!!!

Picked up on this from one of the MS UK teams blog http://blogs.technet.com/eileen_brown/archive/2007/10/09/communicator-mobile-2007.aspx
Essentially a 3D barcode and app software for mobile devices with cameras.
Heres the barcode generator http://reader.kaywa.com/ and mobile device reader code http://www.quickmark.com.tw/En/basic/download.asp
Not sure of uses but like the idea of ‘tagging’ objects – posters, ad’s, screens etc
