Default It's like Christmas come early

Treated myself to a couple of new toys as I got my bonus last month and just signed a new contract so getting new kit from work....

So getting delivered in the next few days I have....

Saturday - TV stand
Monday - Thinkpad T61p laptop
Tuesday - 42" 1080p TV
Wednesday - Blackberry Bold 9000
Thursday - Cisco IP phone (24 ring tone will be used)


I'm going to be like a kid in a sweetshop!

It's a nice glass & chrome one with shelves for all my kit. It will certainly be better than the small table that my TV is currently precariously balanced on

My boss pointed out I can use the GPS to find a pub and receive work e-mails evenings and weekends so it's a win win situation.

I pointed out that I was likely to combine the two and the results would be disasterous

Have you worked out how to stop it telling people you've sent them an e-mail "from your Blackberry device" yet?

Yep, it's easy enough to do when you know. You have to go to a server provided by your mobile phone company and make the change there. Clear as mud.
