I got the idea
for making a new webby on the train heading home from a days work in
London. A chap was sitting opposite me with his blackberry and laptop
and iPod... and there I was with three mobile phones (Nokia N82, E61 and
a 3 Skypephone) an iPod and my green Sony VAIO laptop - with a Huawei
E220 USB modem connecting me
at 3.6Mbps "near broadband speeds". There are a few gadget obsessed
commuters just like me. I really like gadgets and spend a lot of my
disposable income on them.
I had been trying out my own blog on a free domain and web space provided by Microsoft as they beta tested Microsoft and Office Live functionality. The thing is my personal blog was dull (lol - ok so this one probably is dull as well). Sitting on the train I though I was thinking about replacing my Nokia N82 with a BlackBerry and it hit me that I would enjoy writing about gadgets more than my daily commute to work or failings as a golfer.
I ordered the kiwiberry.net domain that evening - kiwi with a BlackBerry. That was March 2008 and I'm still blogging about my Blackberry's and gadgets today.

I've finally given up on
the BlackBerry Storm. The frustration of working with a phone that is
virtually impossible to type on made me finally realise no matter how
nice looking the gadget is, if it can't be used it's useless. I've
bought a BlackBerry Bold in replacement and it's just infinitely better.
I can type quite lengthy emails without stress and there are a large
variety of applications available for the Bold. I wish I had taken the
Bold when O2 offered me the update.
My current mobiles are the BlackBerry Bold 9000 from Vodafone for work, an Apple iPhone on T-Mobile for personal use and a Three Skypephone S2 because I like it.
