BBC2′s The Apprentice ‘stars’ all kitted out with Nokia E61s

By on April 11, 2007 in Devices, News

Picture 16Have you been following BBC2′s The Apprentice this series? I haven’t managed to catch much — I saw the second episode and the end of the third. It’s truly shocking this time though. They’ve picked some utterly brilliant people to participate. Brilliant in the context of entertainment, not business.

Anyway, this year they’re all kitted out with brand spanking new Nokia E61s. Bit of a better upgrade from using Nokia 9300s/9500s like last year.

    I watched my first episode of the Apprentice last night. I’m sure its all very selective but most of the bunch seem to lack a lot of common sense.

    Was slightly concerned by the fact that they continued to use the speakerphone function of the device – please, please don’t start a trend ;-)

    If I had a blog, and watched this week’s Apprentice, I’d be writing about “how on earth is it possible to spend all day with an E61 in your hand, asking yourself what ‘nigella seeds’ are without thinking about looking it up on the internet.”

    Is it possible the BBC didn’t give them a contract with data access?

    Apprentice phone update – they’ve had their Nokias taken off them and now they are using moto razrs.
