- 'hotter than my daughter' on BBC3 has really changed my opinion. There are worse things on telly than on ITV2. Taking low-brow to new lows. #

#1. When switching between windows in Safari, or returning to Safari from other apps, the page you were on decides to reload itself. Really annoying if you’re somewhere with a poor internet connection
#2. Calls not connecting and the “user busy” message – come on phone, serve your primary purpose. Reboot usually helps, which makes me wonder if it’s a network issue or a phone issue
#3. Not picking up calls – does anyone else get this? I’ll often get an incoming call, and click on the answer button a number of times but the phone just doesn’t pick up – merrily playing away the ringtone with no intention of picking up the call. Usually followed up by issue #2 when you try to return the call
#4. OK, so I said 3, and this isn’t really Apple’s fault, but they could develop a better Wifi connection manager in OS4. BT Openzone wifi, which is included in the O2 contract, automatically connects to BT Fon hotspots which are not included in the O2 contract meaning I have to manually disconnect every time I want to access the web at home – I gather these type of hotspots are residential customers sharing their connection with other BT customers – this is even more irritating than the TV ads and they make me physically sick every time I see them…
