Unlocking Vodafone Mobiles

Found out yesterday that Vodafone unlock phones within Contract for free and those on PAYG for £19.99, and the latter is taken off the balance of your credit.

On this occasion I wanted to unlock an Apple iPhone, this is 13 months into a contract. But really easy, once we received confirmation we plugged it into iTunes and the handset was unlocked.

Segway Rally Experience

Today I did a Segway Rally Experience at Thoresby Hall in Nottinghamshire.

Really enjoyed it despite falling off at one point.

iPhone Apps: Word Lens

I’ve had Word Lens on my iPhone since the day I saw it on BBC Click. The app is very clever, all you need to do is hover over text and Word Lens reads it and can display it backwards or delete it completely. But there are also some additional packs you can purchase for it; English to Spanish, Spanish to English and more recently French to English and Vice versa. I bought one of these (expensive) packs for going to Spain with, more just to play with. It was very very clever, as said before. Hover over the text, and you can pause the screen so that you can read what it has translated. I found it fantastic for menus and information boards, and although I did Spanish at school for 2 years it was very useful. Also great to have a play with the free packs.
