AMDs Phenom screwed up

I used to be a big fan of AMD in the times of Athlon 64 and the early versions of A64 X2. Afterwards I moved to the Intel Core 2 Duo platform and I'm pretty happy with the performance I have now.

AMD announced the new quad-core Phenom CPUs and unfortunately they have just screwed up badly again. Tomshardware posted an article with various benchmarks of the CPUs and it shows the top 9700 version of Phenom being 9.8% slower than Intels lowest quad-core, the Q6600.

I hoped AMD would do better.

Sending contacts with Symbian 9.1

I know for sure that today hell was cold - I had no problems transferring around 300 contacts from my Nokia E65 to the E-ten Glofiish X500+ in a few simple steps: 1) Mark all 2) Send via bluetooth. At last I had no problems at least with this simple thing.
