The Great Smartphone Show '08 Caption Competition
Published by Steve Litchfield at 11:31 UTC, October 23rd 2008
Yup. There's one show photo that we simply couldn't decide on a caption for. So it's down to you. We have Ewan, Symbian CEO Nigel Clifford and Rafe chewing the cud in the press area. But what on earth's going on? You decide! Best one line caption in the comments wins some mystery star goodies..... [Winner chosen... see below]
"Rafe: Yes Ewan you're right, thats exactly five minutes. Time for another arm joke"
(From Johnny Glynn)
Content, Content, Content
On a more serious note we've got lots of Symbian Smartphone Show content on the way including video interviews, podcasts, highlights of key demos and announcements, and analysis of some of the major announcments.
We'll also be happy to answer any questions you may have in comments threads or via email.

Ewan: "as you can see, Nigel, Rafe's got the latest proto iPhone-Wristo, do you think we'll see a competitor from the Symbian world?"

"How did it happen? Well, I thought I'd read and understood the document Nokia gave me called 'Exit Strategy from Symbian' and I'd even rehearsed the procedure a couple of times. But when it came to jump, I couldn't open the window"

Ewan: "Rafe, you see what I did to Nigel, if you don't pay attention the same will happen to you..."
OT: That's not the best caption competition picture from the show ;)

There are demonstrations of why 1-handed operation is useful, and there's going to extremes...

I can't be arsed if you fancy it, now wipe off that bollocksed face of yours, get off your chair and let Nigel rest. We have a bloody event to cover and we still need to find that nutter Steve!"
