Not sure but sounds like you’ll have time to try avoid the deletion. The warning emails should forward to your main account. “Before deleting an account, we will send multiple notifications over the months leading up to deletion, to both th

Losing the Signal is a really well written book about RIM/Blackberry. A cautionary tale about losing focus.

The BBC is a great organisation, but on the topic of milk on a hot day, I’m trusting the Channel 4 News team.

"We thank all of our licensees for their great support in making mp3 the defacto audio codec in the world". This doesn't make sense. Defacto standard?

Super interesting. So the overlay tricks the phone into thinking there's 2 SIMs in the phone?

Outlook unlikely to be a good option unfortunately, I just need a calendar for Mac and Android. It's a shame, I'd pay for it if they kept running it as a standalone product and they might be able to use that as a channel to get me
