Wet Wet Wet

And today, a post to keep up with the season. Since it is pouring intermittently outside, and mostly without warning, and we all use cell phones, here's a neat piece on how to revive wet cell phones by Christopher Null, from the yahoo tech blog.
P.S.The comments are more interesting!

I've discovered a mobile photo contest on the Univercell online store. Appropriate to mention in this season-post as this month's contest theme is 'Monsoon.'
Suggested M.O.: Just step out into the rain, click a picture with your mobile phone and then ref. above post for redressal.:) But if you get lucky, you might win a brand new mobile camera instead! :)

From early reviews it seems as if Microsoft's Zune (duh,MP3 player) has had some rather cold water thrown on it. I'm, confessedly, devoted to my iPod Nano and I'm watching to see if Zune will 'kill' the iPod as was forecasted at it's launch party. Zune nearly looks like the iPod, the 30 GB version. Imitation might be a form of flattery, but will it sing GAtes'money-tunes?
