Monday, June 30th, 2008

So today is the day they activate the Eastbourne exchange with Be/o2.. To be really honest I’m not expecting this to be much use as they have been saying the 30th of the month since Nov last year. However! When I finally take a quick look blow me down they have activated it already! Not [...]
