Comment on More about the Spice Phone by James Wallace

With regard to Spice phone in Indonesia:

Having just returned from a two month stay in Indonesia, I think the Spice phone has a hard sell for this large population. Short and simple, the expense is in the service not in the phone. The people who cannot afford much service use SMS primarily. The people who can afford, well they will buy the newest greatest gadget over and over.

Thanks
James

According to Wikipedia, its ciculation is just under a quarter of a million. It’s essentially the face of the New York Times outside North America - most of the content is the same as the NYT.

What is the circulation of the International Herald Tribune? You’re always reading it and linking to it, but when I was in Asia I was all about the Economist. I still think it is the best source of world news in print.

Everyone is dying lately, Gary Gygax died and so did Willie P. Bennett and Jeff Healey recently.

You never mentioned what city he was assasinated in, and what he was doing there and what is going on right now in that city explicitly.

I wonder how many people know what the band Franz Ferdinand is named after.

I liked the Balkans I was hoping they’d recover and prosper. You could even write about the US accidently bombing the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. The Canadian embassy stayed open while many EU ones did not, I know someone who sought refuge in the Canadian embassy though he was an EU citizen, he spoke French and the doorman/guard at the time was from Trois Rivere a place he knew of.

Belgrade is a nice place to visit lots of history, nice people, too many recent scars.
