Obtaining Asian Motorola EZX phones in Europe

A couple of days ago, I was looking for a way to obtain Motorola Linux Smartphones in Europe, i.e. those plenty of models that are not officially sold anywhere but China and other areas of Asia.

I've now found a suitable importer specialized in importing Asian phones into the European market. In case you're interested, feel free to contact me for more details. The phones range between EUR 180 and EUR 300, but there's a minimum order of five phones. I'll probably be ordering around early may.

Returning from OSCON Vienna

I've just returned from my tree day trip to OSCON Vienna. LINBIT took great care of me during my stay, and I enjoyed it quite a lot.

The most obscure thing encountered during that trip was the word Liftkarmiesen. Austrians have all these (to us Germans) ancient and strange words in their variant of German. Anyway, it even took three native Austrians until somebody actually knew what it was ;) If you're now curious, try to research it on your own. It's related to curtains ;)

Photography at Vienna central cemetery

Apart from OSCON/LINBIT related stuff, I've also actually taken a couple of hundred pictures (both digital and analog b/w) at Vienna's central cemetery, Europe's largest cemetery with more than 3 million people being buried there.

I yet have to develop the films, and look into the 3+GB digital data. However, I'm very confident that given the good light conditions and the amount of time I spent at the cemetery, there should definitely be some really good pics...
