I’ve been accused of being a true geek since I was young. A lot of the time I try to ignore it but it’s the open source devices that really force me to examine myself and realise it’s true.

Live from the Nokia E-Series Event
Right now I’m sat on the 29th floor of a building over-looking the Thames… A very snazzy venue for a Nokia E-Series launch.

As you’d expect with an E-Series event [...]
