A lot of people have been asking me to demonstrate exactly what the problem is with Vodafone 360’s photo sharing facilities. Or, to be frank, LACK of photo sharing facilities.
I created a screencast for you to demonstrate. You can watch it here.

Whilst we’re still digesting, writing, analysing the press briefing we thought we’d bring you some images of the £1400 (!!) mobile phone from Motorola, the AURA.
All in an effort to wet your appetite on what’s around the corner, also it’s unfair to keep you waiting around to.
Motorola AURA, in a glass case .. seeing as it is worth £1400 (!!!)
Motorola AURA, showing its watch like cogs screen saver … on a phone worth £1400 (!!!!)
Motorola AURA, closed showing its HAL like 62 carrot crystal screen … did we mention the phone is worth £1400 (!!!!!)
Motorola AURA, showing its circular HAL like 62 carrot crystal screen … by the way, did you know the phone is worth £1400 (!!!!!!)
Motorola AURA, side on view … on a phone costing £1400 (!!!!!!!)

This BBC story caught my eye.
The summary? Couple went to McDonalds. Arguably this was their first mistake. Certainly from my wife’s viewpoint, anyway.
The chap left his handset by mistake at a store in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Apparently McDonalds staff promised to ’secure the phone’ until he returned to get it.
And then it all went wrong for the couple.
The couple then discovered that the nude pictures she had sent to her husband’s phone had been posted online.
Not good.
Obviously they’re now, in the best traditions of America, suing the person or organisation with the biggest cash pile. So they’re not suing the person who allegedly uploaded the pictures. At least not according to the BBC story. Instead they’re apparently flogging the McDonalds Legal Machine along with the franchise owner for $3m in damages.
The Shermans claim they had to move to a new home after the woman’s name, address, and phone number appeared online along with the photos.
Rather unfortunate situation.
Just remember, if you take nude photos digitally, they can be transmitted around the planet in billiseconds and once they’re out of your control, there’s next to nothing you can do.
As we’re still digesting, writing, analysing the day of briefings we thought we’d bring you some images of the INQ 1 first of all.
All in an effort to wet your appetite on what’s coming next, and it’s also unfair to keep you waiting around

This is almost what our staffer, James Whatley, is gagging for:
